@saikrishna321 , @SrinivasanTarget , Can anyone please help with this issue ? I have somewhere learnt that selenium 3.120. version has some issue with NumberCoercer class and it started accepting Port as Integer while earlier it was taking String.

Is that what causing this issue now ? If so How can I get rid of it ?

@varunpandurangi Please try with latest java client 6.1.0 and also share us the exact code you have used to create the driver.

Got it..Solved it by updating the selenium remote driver version to 3.12.0

[SrinivasanTarget]

Appium's Java client comes along with Selenium Dependency so we don't recommend to exclude selenium and add as separate dependency as it may raise conflicts at times.

@varunpandurangi Please try with latest java client 6.1.0 and also share us the exact code you have used to create the driver.
