Cannot access org.openqa.selenium.interactions.HasInputDevices in Java 8.2 with Selenium 4

[IMOBILETester]

Hi all,

Need help on resolving this? I have Java 8.0 appium 1.x project. As appium 2 beta version is released, I started using that . I installed appium 2 beta version and made following changes in Gradle. But when i run that, I’m getting below error in driver i.e java: cannot access org.openqa.selenium.interactions.HasInputDevices. Anybody please check my gradle and help me to resolve this?
Also , please suggest changing existing project from appium 1.x to appium 2 is it good idea?

Error:
java: cannot access org.openqa.selenium.interactions.HasInputDevices
class file for org.openqa.selenium.interactions.HasInputDevices not found

Class Name: AppiumPageObject
public WebDriver facade = getDriver();
public WebDriver driver = ((WebDriverFacade) facade).getProxiedDriver();. --> Cursor is pointing to this line.

public AppiumPageObject() {  // This is to use one page to another

}

Well at least you know it’s a setup issue. How you resolve it is up to you.

Might be similar to this:

Cannot access org.openqa.selenium.Rotatable

Hello team, So I think most are already aware of this issue induced by the latest update of Selenium. My questions are: When can we expect a fix Is there any workaround for this for Appium V2? Current stack trace even without using that class: There was an error in the forked process [ERROR] [ERROR] An error occurred while instantiating class common.runner.CucumberRunnerTest: org/openqa/selenium/Rotatable [ERROR] org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.SurefireBooterForkException: There was an e…

I had the same issue with the same java-client version(8.2.0) and updating to java-client 8.3.0 did the job.

Thank you… Yeah, that’s correct I changed following jar version. After that I’m not getting that issue, it’s compatible issue. But getting below one.
