Hi,

Check this line in the error log -

error: Failed to start an Appium session, err was: Error: Requested a new session but one was in progress

This means that already an instance of Appium server is running. You need to close that before starting with a new session. Best solution is to use the session override flag. If you are using the GUI, there is a checkbox “Override Existing Session” in “General Settings”. Please tick that checkbox when you start a new session.

If you are starting Appium from command prompt, then please set the --session-override flag. Sample command -

appium -a 127.0.0.1 -p 4723 --session-override
