@mykola-mokhnach I tried your fix and its still giving error. I am running appium 1.20.2 with geckodriver 0.29.0 and firefox 80.1.1

@sparsh00 did you run appium from my branch?

I modified appium 1.20.2 locally i.e your changes. Also tried [PLATFORMS.LINUX]: () => AUTOMATION_NAMES.LINUX as for mac and windows its like that(defined AUTOMATION_NAMES.LINUX = Linux).

It won't work. the source needs to be transpiled first. Or you need to modify stuff inside of build folder instead and restart the server to pick up changes

Did that, forgot mentioning getting geckodriver error. Can it be due to firefox version? Attaching trace
firefox_appium_github.log

Yeah, this is something wrong in the geckodriver itself. nothing we could do from Appium side.
