I'm trying to open the application from Appium server and getting the below mentioned error.
An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command.
Original error: Unknown device or simulator UDID:

"bundleId": "com.***",
"platformVersion": "11.2.6",
"app": "/Users/***/***.ipa"
}
even tried with app location on my Mac machine but getting the same error.
xcode version:9.2
ios version:11.2.6
Mac OS version:10.13.3
Appium server version:1.7.2

Answer 1

configuration which is required -
{
“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

here is the iOS cap config,
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "iPhone");
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "iOS");
capabilities.setCapability("automationName", "XCUITest");
capabilities.setCapability("udid", “******************************”);
capabilities.setCapability("bundleId”,”********”);
capabilities.setCapability("noReset", true);
capabilities.setCapability("app", “*******app path******“);
driver = new IOSDriver(new URL("http://0.0.0.0:4723/wd/hub"),capabilities);
please make sure the UDID you have mentioned it correct ,
and you do need to add "WebDriver Agent" app in your iOS device.
