[mykola-mokhnach]

@monleylu https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/8888 might have a solution for your problem.

[monleylu]

@mykola-mokhnach i just start WDA to debug APP,not use appium to start WDA,i download WDA in an other directory
xcodebuild log :https://gist.github.com/monleylu/9793476c0cb96082f0b340af08c0ffe1
diagnostic log :https://gist.github.com/monleylu/8286f6506775981ff4ae51e2e84ae662

[monleylu]

environment:
node -v
v6.11.1
npm -v
3.10.10
xcode -v
8.3.3
this problem still not resolved , i download WDA in directory '~/WebDriverAgent'

• Do you pass any additional arguments or envs like --port or USE_PORT? This is how you can overwrite it. Otherwise we use default.
• Is 8100 free before you boot WDA?

[monleylu]

@marekcirkos i start use command "xcodebuild -project WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj -scheme WebDriverAgentRunner -destination id=8e7d0ac6722547dc7061ca028fd3f5e4c1031336 test" to start WDA without additional arguments or envs parameter, and i use command "netstat -aln|grep 8100" to check ,port is free to use.

[monleylu]

ServerURLHere->http://192.168.1.102:0<-ServerURLHere
i do not understand how program listen 0 port

[marekcirkos]

@monleylu Me as well. Why even 0? I assume you checked the port and it does not work?
Meaning it is not simple print issue?

[weamylady2]

I'm stuck in this issue, and found a workaround then.
Open the appium-xcuitest-driver/WebDriverAgent/WebDriverAgentLib/Routing/FBWebServer.m, and set the port to 8100 in line 124.
Then it works well.
It seems something is wrong while WDA determining the default port.

[marekcirkos]

Do you have env var USE_PORT set to anything? That would explain it

[weamylady2]

Nope. I didn't find any env var named USER_PORT.

Hello all.
I really need your help, i had my appium totally setup but last thursday i accepted an update and the problems started, i am getting a lot of problems with iOS ever since i accepted those changes, i have been searching in the web to solve this issue for a couple of days already and i have not found the solution, i wonder if you could help me please.
Note: this issue is similar to the situation i am going through.

Below the logs i am getting
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_Y113uMw08Rv9kU_Dz0xElz7ujhVKcULhrYiE3PqmD8/edit?usp=sharing

i would really appreciate the help

[bobby06495]

@weamylady2 and @marciok

below is what I see in FBWebServer.m file , what to change here can you please help
{
server.port = (UInt16)port;
NSError *innerError = nil; ===> 124th Line
BOOL started = [server start:&innerError];
if (!started) {
if (!error) {
return NO;

[fi78]

@bobby06495

Change

server.port = (UInt16)port;

to

server.port = 8100;

You can probably do something fancy in case of error, but this works too. (It will ignore variables you set somewhere else!)

[marekcirkos]

@fi78 Did it help?

[bobby06495]

I did not follow that suggestion rather I installed iDeviceConsole and it
worked

Thanks & Regards

I think that modifying the code is not a good idea. I solved this problem in the following way:

export USE_PORT=8100
