Met the error that "the URL does not map to a valid JSONWP resource"

I followed the following steps to setup Appium test environment on Windows 7/ Windows 10 on five computers but got the same error: WebDriverException: Message: The URL ‘/wb/hub/session’ did not map to a valid resource
Steps are as follows:

  1. Download latest node.js from official site and install it
  2. Download latest jdk from official site, install it and configure the system variables
  3. Download latest android SDK and configure system variables
  4. Download latest version (1.4.16.1) of Appium and install it through appium-installer.exe. Also I tried to install it by using node.js on some machines
  5. Check system variables by using appium-doctor to ensure all required variables are set.
  6. Run appium through Appium GUI or command appium --session-override
  7. Run my test case as follows, but I got the error that “the URL ‘/wb/hub/session’ did not map to a valid resource”

My test case is as follows:
#!/usr/bin/env python
#-- coding:utf8 --
import unittest
from appium import webdriver

class OfficialAccountHistoryTest(unittest.TestCase):
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
desired_caps = {}
desired_caps[‘platformName’] = ‘Android’
desired_caps[‘platformVersion’] = ‘4.4.4’
desired_caps[‘deviceName’] = ‘7C5922B03458’

desired_caps[‘appActivity’] = ‘com.tencent.mm.ui.LauncherUI’
desired_caps[‘unicodeKeyboard’] = True
desired_caps[‘resetKeyboard’] = True
desired_caps[‘fastReset’] = ‘false’
desired_caps[‘app’] = ‘D:/WeChat/weixin657android1040.apk’
desired_caps[‘fullReset’] = ‘false’
cls.driver = webdriver.Remote(‘http://192.168.1.108:4723/wb/hub’,desired_caps)

@classmethod
def tearDownClass(cls):
    cls.driver.quit()

def test_openHistory(self):
    pass

    el.click()
    el.send_keys('test')
    el = self.driver.find_element_by_id('com.tencent.mm:id/bbt')
    el.click()
    '''

if name == ‘maim’:
suite = unittest.TestLoader().loadTestsFromTestCase(OfficialAccountHistoryTest)
unittest.TxtTestRunner(verbosity=2).run(suite)

Test case log is as follows:

Investigations I did are as follows

  1. Read all answers from Google and Baidu but didn’t resolve this issue
  2. I am sure that no proxy is used on all my computers
  3. I turned fire wall and tried again, but no joy happens
  4. Use Python 2.7 or 3.x, but no joy happens
    Anyone can give me some suggestion? My android device is Hongmi whose android version is 4.4.4
