Unable to launch emulator Once I migrated from appium 1 to appium 2

Support
1

HI all,

I have single appium framework which runs for android and IOS in appium 2. IOS is working fine, when i try to launch the emulator , I’m getting below error though my zsh profile I have ANDROID_HOME and ANDROID_SDK_ROOT. When i use echo$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT or echo $ANDROID_HOME it’s displaying my SDK : /Users/xxxx/Library/Android/sdk

Recently i migrated from appium1 to appium 2. After that only, it started throwing below error.Before i used to launch emulator successfully. Anybody facing this issue while migrating from appium1 to appium 2?

cause is : nullMessage is : Could not start a new session. Response code 500. Message: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Neither ANDROID_HOME nor ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment variable was exported. Read https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/variables for more details

try to add the following to your .zshrc file.

export ANDROID_HOME="/Users/****/Library/Android/sdk"

and then run source .zshrc and then close and reopen the terminal and make sure the envs are available.

I already have that. When i type echo $ANDROID_HOME it’s displaying my SDK : /Users/xxxx/Library/Android/sdk. But still getting above error.
