Xcode 7/iOS 9Could not find a device to launch. You requested 'iPhone 6 (9.0 Simulator)' #5624

skycamefalling · 2015-09-18T15:14:59Z

This happened on 1.4.11 and 1.5.0beta4

It looks like the values are hardcoded into the code. This is causing appium with the ruby bindings to not be able to find the device. It looks as if in Xcode 7 they changed the device names - as you can see not one of them has simulator in the name.

Can you provide the full Appium server log? The code looks right for getting the desired string from xcode 7.

if (opts.iOSSDKVersion >= 8 && xcodeMajorVer === 7) {
  iosDeviceString += " (" + reqVersion + ")";
}

This is my appium.txt file


platformName = "ios"
app = "APP/PATH"
deviceName = "iPhone 6"
platformVersion = "9.0"
sendKeyStrategy = "grouped"
waitForAppScript = "3"

[appium_lib]

require = ["./spec/requires/requires.rb"]

I have only tried simulators. I have tried to change the names to the ones that are shown in the error messages.

squidpunch · 2015-09-22T23:33:12Z

+1 seeing same issue on latest Appium and Xcode 7

Nastiking · 2015-09-23T13:21:13Z

+1 I also see this issue on appium 1.4.11 and Xcode 7

skycamefalling · 2015-09-23T13:41:23Z

Also, I am on OS X 10.10.5 if that makes any difference.

squidpunch · 2015-09-23T14:43:31Z

Think this should be fixed in the next release -
When I run off of master using an external appium package on a local clone of the repo the error is resolved.

s2005lg · 2015-09-23T15:36:30Z

I met the same problem. Currently i am using appium 1.4.8 on MAC. For details ,please refer screenshot.
The code is like below:

private WebDriver driver;

@BeforeClass
public void setUp() throws MalformedURLException {
    DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.iphone();
    capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "IOS");
    capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "iPhone Simulator");
    capabilities.setCapability("browserName", "Safari");
    capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "9.0");

    driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://0.0.0.0:4723/wd/hub"),capabilities);
}

imurchie · 2015-09-23T15:39:41Z

iOS 9 is not supported in 1.4.8. The minimum version is 1.4.9. This particular issue will be fixed in the next release, which is immanent.

skycamefalling · 2015-09-23T19:51:02Z

Will that be an update to 1.5? i have beta4 and I still get the same error.

s2005lg · 2015-09-24T02:35:15Z

@imurchie Thanks, i am going to update to 1.4.9 on MAC

saikrishna321 · 2015-09-24T04:43:10Z

@SouWilliams i had similar problem running with iPhone 6 even after updating appium to 1.4.11 .

npm install -g appium@1.4.11 will update the appium server.

Just change the deviceName to iPhone 6s ... this would work for u ..

s2005lg · 2015-09-24T05:36:10Z

@saikrishna321 Thanks for your solution. But i still got the same error. The code has been changed to below:
@BeforeClass
public void setUp() throws MalformedURLException {
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.iphone();
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "IOS");
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "iPhone 6 Plus");
capabilities.setCapability("browserName", "Safari");
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "9.0");

    driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://0.0.0.0:4723/wd/hub"),capabilities);
}

For the errors, please refer screenshot. Hope can get some help.

saikrishna321 · 2015-09-24T06:50:18Z

@SouWilliams i just ran my test locally i was successful in running in iPhone 6S. can you try the below code ...

public class IOSWebTest {

private WebDriver driver;

/**
 * Instantiates the {@link #driver} instance by using DesiredCapabilities which specify the
 * 'iPhone Simulator' device and 'safari' app.
 * @throws Exception
 */
@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
    DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
    capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "iPhone 6s");
    capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "iOS");
    capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "9.0");
    capabilities.setCapability("browserName", "safari");
    driver = new IOSDriver<WebElement>(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),
            capabilities);
    //driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}

/**

@Test
public void runTest() throws Exception {
    driver.get("http://www.google.com");

    Thread.sleep(2000);
}

/**

@After
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
    driver.quit();
}

@saikrishna321 Thanks, but it's not working on my machine...
i have decided to uninstall my Appium and try to install by npm. Currently the appium is the GUI version.
Thanks again

s2005lg · 2015-09-25T00:42:15Z

Hi Guys, i have solved this issue. Just upgrade to the latest version(1.4.11). This time i try to use npm to install appium, it's working. But when i start appium in the command line by use "appium &" i have no idea how to shut it down. Do you have any ideas on how to shutdown appium in command line ?

saikrishna321 · 2015-09-25T06:04:17Z

@SouWilliams killall -9 node should help

Tried to download appium source code from github and run reset.sh script as suggested on this link - https://discuss.appium.io/t/new-xcode-breaks-ios-emulator-initiation/6051.

When can we expect a new release with the fix please ? Right now appium.io has 1.4.8 dmg when downloaded. My team uses the .dmg file as server and generally doesn't update node or any other underlying binaries, so really appreciate if we have the dmg. Thanks

imurchie · 2015-09-28T21:55:05Z

The .dmg application is a different project altogether. There is an issue open there for support of the latest Appium server.

marrs · 2015-10-02T16:50:28Z

when i start appium in the command line by use appium & i have no idea how to shut it down

@SouWilliams the & appending your command tells the shell to run the command in the background. run fg to bring it to the foreground. Then you can terminate it with Ctrl-C. If you want to run it in the foreground from the outset, omit the &.

Google bash jobs for more info. This documentation is one of the first hits and covers the basics: http://web.mit.edu/gnu/doc/html/features_5.html

@kiminoa , i suggest to update to 1.4.13. On this version, it works on my laptop.

ghost · 2015-10-12T15:48:54Z

@SouWilliams, can you help me with appium version 1.4.13.
I'm using appium version 1.4.13 but I'm getting this error with the IOS simulators.

Get this error "Failed to start an Appium session, err was: Error: Command failed: /bin/sh -c xcrun --sdk iphonesimulator --show-sdk-version"
It would keep opening and closing the simulator in a loop.
How did you get yours to work?
Thank you for your help.

alxtgda · 2015-10-22T21:58:01Z

Up and running using "appium &" (1.4.13) instead of Appium GUI.

uscengineer · 2015-10-30T01:33:17Z

Any fix for the the GUI?

AppiumUserForMobile · 2015-12-08T23:51:59Z

I am seeing this on 1.4.16 as well. Can someone please help?

AppiumUserForMobile · 2015-12-10T00:03:06Z

Can someone please help?

ghost · 2015-12-10T00:18:09Z

I haven't tried 1.4.16, but did you install the needed simulators? On 1.4.13 there was some issue with simulator. I got around it by running the following steps. Not sure if this will help you. I can't think of anything else.
Go to iOS advance settings in the GUI app and check Use Native Instruments Library and check Instruments Launch Timeout and set to 900,000 ms or a number of your choice so it has enough time to load before failing. Then I was able to open a browser in iOS Simulator 9.1. You have to manually type in 9.1 in the GUI app. Hopefully this issue will be fixed soon, so we don't need to do a workaround.

AppiumUserForMobile · 2015-12-10T00:23:26Z

I should have mentioned that i am trying on real device not on simulator. sorry about that.

SrinivasanTarget · 2016-03-09T19:30:35Z

@scottdixon This has been fixed in Appium 1.5 and it works fine as expected.Please close this.

scottdixon-zz · 2016-03-10T18:18:25Z

This should be resolved in recent versions of Appium. Reopen if any issues.

schanami · 2016-03-31T17:19:21Z

where can I find Appium 1.5? I'm experiencing issues with Appium 1.4.13 and iPhone 6 simulator

imurchie · 2016-03-31T19:18:08Z

From npm. Just npm install -g appium and you will have the latest version (1.5.1).

schanami · 2016-03-31T19:23:07Z

I just ran npm install -g appium on 1.5.1 but still getting errors not passing tests
` ios webview

CALL init({"browserName":"","appium-version":"1.3","platformName":"iOS","platformVersion":"8.1","deviceName":"iPhone Simulator","app":"http://appium.github.io/appium/assets/WebViewApp7.1.app.zip"})

1) "before all" hook
CALL quit()
DELETE /session

Ending your web drivage..

2) "after all" hook

`

appium node module is 1.5.1 but Appium.app is on 1.4.13

skycamefalling · 2016-03-31T19:27:57Z

Your appium-version is still at 1.3 - try changing that to 1.5

How do I change the appium version? I couldn't find any docs saying how to change appium version. thanks!

skycamefalling · 2016-03-31T19:34:45Z

Change it where ever you have this code. Looks like your caps file.
CALL init({"browserName":"","appium-version":"1.3","platformName":"iOS","platformVersion":"8.1","deviceName":"iPhone Simulator","app":"http://appium.github.io/appium/assets/WebViewApp7.1.app.zip"}) POST /session {"desiredCapabilities":{"browserName":"","appium-version":"1.3","platformName":"iOS","platformVersion":"8.1","deviceName":"iPhone

schanami · 2016-03-31T19:38:03Z

I'm still new to appium, where is caps file?

schanami · 2016-03-31T19:44:12Z

I found out where to make the changes
ios-webview.js and helpers/caps.js

thanks everyone!

skycamefalling · 2016-03-31T19:54:03Z

No problem!

Facing the same issue on Appium 1.4.15 and 1.4.13

Error

imurchie · 2016-06-13T18:52:58Z

Can you provide the full server logs as a gist

eagle19 · 2016-06-13T18:59:46Z

Sorry. By full I mean from the session start to when it fails. So we can see the desired capabilities, etc., and the steps the server is taking.

eagle19 · 2016-06-13T19:22:24Z

Here it is .

@eagle19 You need to either create an iPad device, or use a deviceName that corresponds to something you have (like iPad 2).
