My automation code worked in older version of appium, however, when I upgraded it to 1.4.0, it has thrown error when running my automation script. The below is the log. Please suggest.

Can you generate a new apk and try it again. I have faced this issue in the past.

I cannot generate a new apk for now. For the apk which I had the internetpermissionfrommanifest is enabled, so I could not understand why Appium is complaining about it.

My problem is still not rectified. I had a new apk but still appium could not start with the same error, info: [debug] Responding to client with error: {“status”:33,“value”:{“message”:“A new session could not be created. (Original error: hasInternetPermissionFromManifest failed. Error: Command failed: ERROR: no dump file specified\r\n)”,“origValue”:“hasInternetPermissionFromManifest failed. Error: Command failed: ERROR: no dump file specified\r\n”},“sessionId”:null}
