I am using Appium v1.8.0, java-client-5.0.0-BETA6, jdk1.8.0_171.jdk

Same on Android, after updating to 6.0.0 when trying to take sceenshot or get current activity

3

Can you include the appium log as well? Are these real phones or simulators? Is the stacktrace when upgrading to java-client 6.0.0 stable the same?

I’m facing the same issue - could anyone find a solution?

Appium 1.8.1
Java-Client 6.0.0

I also got an exception:

org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: java.io.IOException: unexpected end of stream on Connection{0.0.0.0:4726, proxy=DIRECT hostAddress=/0.0.0.0:4726 cipherSuite=none protocol=http/1.1}

Hey, how did you solve the problem?Can you please share?

Bug has been fixed in Appium v1.8.1. What you can do also is to try catch the line of code where this happens and call it again - it works.

Please find this ticket where it is discussed.
The solution is - Please upgrade Java-Client to 6.1.0 which should fix the issue. I did and working fine with no connection reset error.
