Hi Radha,
Can you please let us know how do you set up the ANDROID_HOME globally in MAC.
I am getting the same issue when running the appium launch via java code in eclipse
Thank you in Advance.
Regards
Gan
Hi
The same code is not working for me on Mac. Can you help me with it.
I am getting NPE at appiumProcess.getWatchdog().destroyProcess();
Please help ASAP
Could you paste all code example here and the error
Hi
Its working here after setting the capabilities properly.
Can you tell me how to launch an emulator programatically on Mac and Win.
Thanks,
Pradeep
@Pradeep simulators and emulators are both launched automatically by appium if you don’t have one already running. You can look at the appium source code for how this is done 
public void launchAppium() {
CommandLine command = new CommandLine("/bin/sh");
command.addArgument("/Applications/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node/bin/node");
command.addArgument("/Applications/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node_modules/appium/bin/appium.js");
command.addArgument("–address", false);
command.addArgument(“127.0.0.1”);
command.addArgument("–port", false);
command.addArgument(“4723”);
command.addArgument("–full-reset", false);
DefaultExecuteResultHandler resultHandler = new DefaultExecuteResultHandler();
DefaultExecutor executor = new DefaultExecutor();
executor.setExitValue(1);
try {
executor.execute(command, resultHandler);
} catch (ExecuteException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}When you start the server through the Appium GUI, the logs show what command Appium executes to start the sever.
You can execute the same command into terminal to get the server working. An example of starting the server from terminal is to execute the following:
cd /Applications/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node_modules/appium
‘/Applications/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node/bin/node’ lib/server/main.js --address “127.0.0.1” --command-timeout “7200” --session-override --debug-log-spacing --platform-version “8.4” --platform-name “iOS” --app “<path-to-.app>” --show-ios-log --show-ios-log --device-name “iPad Air” --instruments “/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/instruments” --native-instruments-lib --orientation “Landscape”
Hi
I am able to invoke appium from source but when i run my test for hybrid app on an emulator for android it fires an error saying:

Need your help.
@Nitinvermaa1
Look through your running processes for a process called node.ex, terminate that proces and give it another try.
basically you tried to connect while the server hasn’t started yet.
please refer to this article to get things starting easily. You will find a method called isServerRunning, use it to make sure that the server is up and running before you try to connect to it.
@Hassan_Radi I refereed the article which you have provide and i am able to start the server and also cross verified in the task manager. But when i am setting up the capabilities i am getting the same error. Please find below code.

Please help me to know how to initialize the appiumdriver or androiddriver with address and capabilities
driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4725/wd/hub”),capabilities);
i also tried with UN-commenting the capabilities code. But still the same error.
This line refers to the port number on the mobile device side and not the port number of the server as you think. The server argument for the server port number is –port. Refer to this for a list of all server arguments.
The issue you are experiencing is because you are starting Appium using the default port number 4723 and trying to connect to another connection that doesn’t exist:
Change it to be the following and it should work correctrly:
driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub”),null);
