Do I have the most recent component updates?

  • I use the most recent available driver/plugin and server versions

Is the component officially supported by the Appium team?

  • I have verified the component repository is present under the Appium organization in GitHub

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

when i am trying to run my appium code
getting below error

FAILED CONFIGURATION: @BeforeClass UAApp.BaseComponent.AndroidBaseTest.configureAppium

Hi @ANSHUL786
I just had the same issue on my side and solved it by updating the appium java-client from v9.2.0 to v9.2.1. 🙂

@simonberner -- The latest version of java client is 9.2.0...where did you get 9.2.1 from?

sanjaneya-chwy commented

I am seeing the exact same issue as well. Updated Appium to 2.5.1 and also updated Java client to 9.2.0. Any help in fixing this issue is greatly appreciated

sanjaneya-chwy commented

UPDATE: appium java-client from v9.2.0 to v9.2.1 did the trick. But I am still puzzled about how do we know to use 9.2.1 when maven website only shows 9.2.0 as latest: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.appium/java-client

Jiyvn commented

hit the same error with 9.2.0 using selenium 4.19. After explicitly specifying the selenium version to 4.18.1, this issue get fixed. Maybe selenium 4.19 changes causing the problem? https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/blob/acd9d0e77dc5a5a39c3a95a5aa0e94a6c4161fe7/java/CHANGELOG#L1 @KazuCocoa

I am still having this issue using java-client 9.2.2 and selenium-java 4.19.0.

And I am sure my Appium Server is working as I can connect to it using Appium Inspector using the same capabilities.

an update on this, it turned out the cache was the culprit. after changing to the above combination and reloading the mavin project fixed the issue.
