Dear Team,

I am having Appium Desktop v1.9.0. Appium Java Client v6.1.0.

I am getting error.

capabilities.setCapability(“deviceName”, “”);
capabilities.setCapability(“udid”, “”);
capabilities.setCapability(“platformName”, “Android”);
capabilities.setCapability(“platformVersion”, “6.0”);
capabilities.setCapability(“browserName”, “Chrome”);

Hi,

Yes appium tells correct only. Where is the device name and app path/appPackage and appActivity in your capabilities?

use like this,

method 1:

capabilities.setCapability(“deviceName”, “your real device name/emulator name”);
capabilities.setCapability(“platformName”, “Android”);
capabilities.setCapability(“platformVersion”, “6.0”);
capabilities.setCapability(“browserName”, “Chrome”);
capabilities.setCapability(“fullReset”, false);
capabilities.setCapability(“noReset”, true);
capabilities.setCapability(“app”, “your app path”);

Method 2:

capabilities.setCapability(“deviceName”, “your real device name/emulator name”);
capabilities.setCapability(“platformName”, “Android”);
capabilities.setCapability(“platformVersion”, “6.0”);
capabilities.setCapability(“browserName”, “Chrome”);
capabilities.setCapability(“appPackage”, “your app package here”);
capabilities.setCapability(“appActivity”, “your app activity here”);
capabilities.setCapability(“fullReset”, false);
capabilities.setCapability(“noReset”, true);

let me know if you still getting issue.

Thanks,
Srini

For method 2; It will give an error
“The desired should not include both of an ‘appPackage’ and a ‘browserName’” .

Added to that is there a way we could know which appium is installed in server machine by some API ?

I have the same issue

Hi,

I am trying to launch the control center from iphone 7 using appium 1.9.1 and java client 5.0.4 (as we have dependancy on 5.0.4).
Have been trying with all the combinations, there are no errors in the code however, i am not able to launch it.
Could someone help me for a solution.

Thanks a lot.
