Hi ,
for my daily work I’ve been using appium 1.4.16 and java_client 3.3.0
I would like to start to look into the new appium version (currently 1.5.1 / 3.4.1)
to download the new jar and embed into my project it’s not an issue, but I was wonder how do I download 2 different appium versions and how do I start the specific version I want ?
Thanks
Java client u can manage using maven or gradle. with appium versions, u can install multiple appium versions (appium version manager utility may help you to deal with this situations)
Thanks,

Thanks for the help ,

Pls see attached logs :
sudo avm use 1.4.16 --port "4725" --native-instruments-lib --dont-stop-app-on-reset --session-override

If I remove the avm , and install only one server , everything works.
Any idea ?
More over , after I’ve installed latest appium versions (1.5.1 or 1.5.0) , I cannot execute them .
Getting : Error: 1.5.0/1 is not installed
But the versions are installed
Only 1.4.16 can be executed through avm
Nobody use multiple appium versions ?
Yes, I got the same error.
I cannot install Appium 1.5.0/1 by avm.
Is there anybody can help us fix the issue?
I just fixed the issue for avm install Appium 1.5.
Because some file path is changed in Appium 1.5, so avm cannot install it.
I make the change for avm file, then it can install all Appium versions.
@derek1106 seems like the original repo owner has disabled the issue/no longer maintaining it. Would you be able to make the changes and republish it on npm?
If It’s ok with the licencing terms and with you.
Anybody still using this utility for versions 1.6.x on macOS 10.12???
seems that avm is not working / being supported anymore
