Appium version 1.6.3 and appium client 4.1.2
java client on Windows
Android7 real device.(Device API level: 24)

I go error below while trying to set up appium driver.
I didn’t see this issue with Android 6 devices with same clients.
any advice?

Hi,

if you are connection two devices at a time to your computer you have to set the “udid” then only appium will start the session using “udid”, other wise appium will not understand start session on which device.
