Can you set the capability showXcodeLog = true and repost the gist.

@chanugithub No.Not yet...Still facing

[chanugithub]

@findmanish okay please Let me know if you resolve it, thanks

[chanugithub]

@findmanish Finally i was able to find the solution, it was actually Apple certificates in key chain access which now i set to 'system default' and previously it was in 'Always trust' mode, are you able to resolve it, let me know there is another workaround too

[okankurtulus]

Hi, I'm experiencing the exact same error. I've checked all my certificates and confirmed all were already system default. So there should be some other reason. Please let me know if you have any idea?

[ghost]

Hi,

Even I am facing same error. I have checked all certificates and all of them are system default . Please let me know if there is any alternative solution for this issue.

[okankurtulus]

Hi, here is how I've solved the issue:

1. Go to Applications/Appium from Finder
2. RightClick Appium and select Show Package Contents
3. Then navigate to Contents\Resources\app\node_modules\appium\node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/WebDriverAgent
4. There you will see WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj file
5. Open it and fix signing issues. Fix the signing so that this app should be able to installed on real device
6. Then close all and retry Appium. It should work now

In my case the error code 65 is raised for WebDriverAgent not my bundle, but I lost so much time because I all thought the signing issue is with my bundle

[smrutiv]

It took me forever to figure this out! Thanks to @okankurtulus it was these steps above helped me run. in my case the error code 65 was raised for WebDriverAgent not my bundle as well. We need a different error code to let others know.

[girishh143]

Hi,
I am also facing the same issue trying to run the script on real device.
OS: 10.13.1
Xcode: 9.4.1
node: v10.7.0
appium: 1.6.2

capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APPIUM_VERSION, "1.6.2");
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME, "iOS");
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "9.3.5");
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME, "Himanshu Phirke iPad");
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.UDID,"XXXXd938649f9640a0460d10c93ae95bcddee857");(manually changed)
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, iapp.getAbsolutePath());
capabilities.setCapability(IOSMobileCapabilityType.LAUNCH_TIMEOUT,500000);

capabilities.setCapability("showXcodeLog", true);
capabilities.setCapability("xcodeSigningId", "iPhone Developer");
capabilities.setCapability("xcodeOrgId", "XXXHF532JT"); (manually changed)

1. when I am and trying to build the project from command line using command:
   "xcodebuild -project WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj -scheme WebDriverAgentRunner -destination 'id=XXXXd938649f9640a0460d10c93ae95bcddee857' test"
   it is showing following error:
   CommandLineBuildError.docx
   Note: When I am doing 'Clean' and 'Build' in xcode it get build successfully.

2. After building in xcode if i am trying to run my test in eclipse, it is displaying following error:
   Command duration or timeout: 33.00 seconds
   Build info: version: '3.12.0', revision: '7c6e0b3', time: '2018-05-08T15:15:03.216Z'

   Driver info: driver.version: IOSDriver

3. Appium server log file as follow:
   appium-server-logs.txt

Note:

1. I have trusted the device.
2. in xcode i have done the sign-in also
3. followed the link for installation::
   https://github.com/appium/appium-xcuitest-driver/blob/master/docs/real-device-config.md

Observation:
It is installing the my app on device.
webdriverAgent also get installed but it filkers and get removed from device.

Can some please help me on this it is very urgent.

[smrutiv]

HI @girishh143

Did you try above steps from @okankurtulus ? If not please try to go to that folder (webdriverAgent) and then run the xcode first and then go to terminal and run the command from where the WebdriverAgent is located.

If it is still not working then make sure you are not copying the command and paste it to terminal. It does not recognize the single quote when copied and pasted.

For eg: the above command you have given has double quotes after test ("xcodebuild -project WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj -scheme WebDriverAgentRunner -destination 'id=XXXXd938649f9640a0460d10c93ae95bcddee857' test") Please remove those quotes it should be just -$ xcodebuild -project WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj -scheme WebDriverAgentRunner -destination 'id=XXXXd938649f9640a0460d10c93ae95bcddee857' test. After you remove the double quotes make sure the single quotes are typed not copied.

Hope you will get it run. Good luck.

Hey I just went through your log file. Unfortunately, error code 65 means nothing. it seems like you have issue with your private key (signin code). Check the error below that I copied from your log file.

[girishh143]

@smrutiv : I have done the singing in xcode, also created the certificate, also added it in key-chain but still i am getting the same error.
Note: I am using the Hybrid app is there any special setting for it ?
