I run the code and waited for 5 minutes. Till now I didn’t receive any exceptions in the console log.
In the code after the appiumServer.startServer(); method I have added the System.out.println(“Server started”);
Even it is not moving to the next line.
Now, I purposely made some wrong changes in the code like
File file = new File(“D:/programfiles”);
ServerArguments serverArguments = new ServerArguments();
serverArguments.setArgument(“address”,“127.0.0.1”); [removed the ‘–’]
serverArguments.setArgument(“–chromedriver-port”, 9516);
serverArguments.setArgument(“–bootstrap-port”, 4725);
serverArguments.setArgument(“–no-reset”, true);
serverArguments.setArgument(“–local-timezone”, true);
AppiumServer appiumServer = new AppiumServer(file, serverArguments);
appiumServer.startServer();
System.out.println(“started”)
When I run the above code I get an exception like:
SUCCESS: The process “node.exe” with PID 5824 has been terminated.

appium.js: error: Unrecognized arguments: address 127.0.0.1.
The error was correctly thrown at the console.
Now I added the ‘–’ infront of the address and I run the code.
No exceptions thrown in the screen.
In the File Object do we need to pass node.exe path or appium.js path
Because in command line arguments I will pass both of the directory path.
no, you don’t need to pass any of these paths. can you please check if you have a process running that is called “node.exe” after running the same code.
Also please can you provide your OS details, Appium server version and JDK version.
Yes when running the code the node.exe process is started. PFA
Java version
java version “1.7.0_51”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13)
Java HotSpot™ 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)
OS: Windows 7 64 bit
Appium Server: 1.4.0.0
@Hassan_Radi Today morning I run the same code and that code started to run. But when creating an android driver for the 127.0.0.1:4725 it fails.
Either it is not running or it is failing with refused to connect with 127.0.0.1:4725 because of Android driver
Sorry for the later reply, I was investigating the cause of the issue you are experiencing. The underlying code that is responsible for interacting with the Appium server uses Java’s Process class which has a limitation on some operating systems including windows. This limitation causes the spawned process to get stuck into a deadlock state preveting interaction with it and thus causing the unresponsiveness you are experiencing. I am working on a solution to this issue and will release a new version of the library that fixes this problem.
Can you elaborate more?? Did the server instance open successfully and you are having issues connecting to it? If this is the case, please attache your code and logs.
Let me paste the CODE and console log here:
CODE:
File file = new File("D:/programfiles");
ServerArguments serverArguments = new ServerArguments();
serverArguments.setArgument("--address","127.0.0.1");
serverArguments.setArgument("--chromedriver-port", 9516);
serverArguments.setArgument("--bootstrap-port", 4725);
serverArguments.setArgument("--no-reset", true);
serverArguments.setArgument("--local-timezone", true);
AppiumServer appiumServer = new AppiumServer(file, serverArguments);
appiumServer.stopServer();
Thread.sleep(5000);
appiumServer.startServer();
System.out.println("Appium server is started");
System.out.println("Android Desired Capabilities Setup is loading...");
DesiredCapabilities androidCapabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
androidCapabilities.setCapability("avd","AutoInsurance");
androidCapabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME,ExcelUtils.readExcel(fileDefPath,metadataFileName,Constants.executionSheet,7,2));
androidCapabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION,ExcelUtils.readExcel(fileDefPath,metadataFileName,Constants.executionSheet,8,2));

I got the aboveConsole log after I restarted my PC and then I run the program for the very first time.
After that when I run the same program with the same code every time it is going to a deadlock state as you explained. The console log

Since it is keep on running, I opened the windows task manager and checked whether the node.exe is running or not.
Yes it is running in my PC. Then I ended/killed the process of node.exe manually.
At that time I received some Console error which makes me confused.

Here I started the server with 4725 port in server arguments as well as in capabilities but in the console line it mentioned like e[36minfoe[39m: Appium REST http interface listener started on 127.0.0.1:4723
Whether this could be the problem for the deadlock state?
The updated version is not merged to Maven main repository yet. Are you sure you have selected the correct version?? 1.0.3?
this line you have added, changes the port number on the mobile side not on the server side. Just change it to be:
serverArguments.setArgument(“–port”, 4725);
@Hassan_Radi I directly downloaded the Appium Support Library 1.0.3 from your Github. Yes I changed the –bootstrap-port to –port
Still it is in the deadlock state.
ok can you please fill a bug here: https://github.com/Genium-Framework/Appium-Support/issues
and we will take it from there.
@Hassan_Radi @ashokkumarg
I am using the same java code to start appium server, but I couldnot run it in real device.
The error is
for android device “Could not find adb. Please set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable with the Android SDK root directory path.”
for ios device “Could not initialize ideviceinstaller; make sure it is installed and works on your system”
But both are installed.
Have any idea??
Thanks
Did you add ANDROID_HOME to your environment variables??? that is what the error message is saying.
@Hassan_Radi It has been set already. I can run in Appium app with no problem. But this issue happens only with this kind of implementation
@Bala_Kumar Could you share some information to proceed with this issue.
For iOS you need to install the ideviceinstaller manually
Click here for ideviceinstaller.
@ashokkumarg
You can see the appium Doctor results in the above image. I have installed ideviceinstaller already.
I can run in real device(in same system), if I start server manually in Appium.
Have u ever started appium server to run tests in real device thru code??
am I missing something? Any configurations??
Sorry! till now I haven’t tried with the real device. Let me check it
