Error at startup: "A new session could not be created"

Issues/Bugs

I’ve searched around and can’t find this exact issue, but am getting: "WebDriverException: Message: u’A new session could not be created. (Original error: Command failed: )’ "

I don’t understand why the traceback doesn’t included the failed command, its just blank. Anyone seen this? It occurs fairly consistently, but not everytime.

Can someone point me where to look for more information on the specific error?

We are only seeing this error in our Continuous Integration environment (TeamCity) but not when I run locally. Is there anything that might be related to the build or dSYM?

Running against native iOS in sim (iPad/7.1)

This is a duplicate of https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/3722 which should be fixed in 1.2.4 (though I have not tested it)

Thanks @JessicaSachs - Sorry for the dupe.

I can confirm that this issue is fixed on our 1.2.4 server running in a TeamCity environment.
