Hi…I’m opening an Application through Appium Server but I’m getting the error:

An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Unknown device or simulator UDID: '046e4469d6cb14ff57e378599bd4b1d09390472b'

 {

  "platformName": "iOS",

  "deviceName": "iPad",

  "automationName": "XCUITest",

  "udid": "046e4469d6cb14ff57e378599bd4b1d09390472b",

  "bundleId": "com.***",

  "platformVersion": "11.2.6",

  "app": "/Users/***/***.ipa"

}

Answer 1

Use the below configuration which will solve your problem:

{

 “platformName”: “iOS”,

 “platformVersion”: “10.2.1",

 “deviceName”: “------”,

 “udid”: “fdbe0d55ced1fd6fa842681b6a058438573fb762",

 “app”: “/Users/----/---/---/---.ipa”,

 “automationName”: “XCUITest”

}

Based on app path, it will find the app to be loaded, also you have to provide the iOS version(XCode ios simulator version for simulator/ device OS version for device).

Answer 2

Run Command 'ideviceinstaller in Terminal and found your device attached .

Set the Path into your Test Case Class in your project.

and again run the program.
