I'm trying to use Appium version 1.19.1 to test an ipad app on a physical ipad device that I have built with Xcode 12.3. Previously this has worked as expected, but recently I have not been able to get Appium to run at all, and I suspect that Xcode 12.3 may be the issue based on what I have discovered.
When I try to run Appium from python this is the trace printed to my python console (device serial number/udid intentionally hidden):

WebDriverAgentRunner:

** TEST EXECUTE FAILED **
Testing started. Make sure you follow the tutorial at https://github.com/appium/appium-xcuitest-driver/blob/master/docs/real-device-config.md. Try to remove the WebDriverAgentRunner application from the device if it is installed and reboot the device.
Through researching I came across this answer which linked to an apple developer forum post that leads me to believe the issue is with one of the frameworks that appium must be using that is not cooperating with Xcode 12.3.
I have also come across another suggestion that I tried but it did not fix my issue.
Also, this is what I'm seeing in Test-WebDriverAgentRunner-2021.01.06_17-04-19--0600.xcresult:
Assertions: System: Failed to install or launch the test runner. If you believe this error represents a bug, please attach the result bundle at /Users/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/WebDriverAgent-alwvnomvwrdtzoaxbbkniqrpcdpp/Logs/Test/Test-WebDriverAgentRunner-2021.01.06_17-04-19--0600.xcresult. (Underlying Error: The file “WebDriverAgentRunner-Runner.app” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file. The file doesn’t exist. (Underlying Error: The operation couldn’t be completed. No such file or directory))
So is there anything else I can try at this point, or is this going to come down to a framework being used by appium needing to be updated? Any ideas or suggestions are definitely appreciated!
Turns out I had to follow the suggestion in this answer but on the WebDriverAgent Xcode project. Seems to have fixed it for me.
After the installation WDA on real device, worked for me on appium 1.20 such workaround:
$ cd ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
$ rm -rf WebDriverAgent-alwvnomvwrdtzoaxbbkniqrpcdpp
$ mv WebDriverAgent-ciegwgvxzxdrqthilmrmczmqvrgu WebDriverAgent-alwvnomvwrdtzoaxbbkniqrpcdpp
iOS App is build successfully but App is not getting open in the Simulator or device.
Getting chmod error for the app path.

I fixed this by upgrading XCode.
Well, just tried to create an IPA build / package with no luck. I found similar issues on the web but they didn't fix the error.
Here's the stack that it sends me while trying:

My environment is as follows:
OS: macOS Sierra
Xcode: 8.21
Appcelerator Studio: 4.8.1
Thing already tried:
Tried to remove rbenv and use system ruby with no luck.
I updated CFPropertyList gem as well.
With the release of SDK 6.0.3.GA they solved also a problem with ad-hoc release, have a look at this one:
https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/TIMOB-24483
In these last weeks I'm having problems with in-house distribution but for me ad-hoc works.
XCode decided to do an upgrade to iOS 9, and after that the app refuses to deploy to the emulator.
The build works ok, but it fails at this:
[INFO] : Invoking xcodebuild
[INFO] : Finished building the application in 40s 523ms
[INFO] : Launching iOS Simulator
[ERROR] : Project failed to build after 1m 21s 108ms

Any ideas?
There's no updates that i can install, it says everything is up to date.
I have SDK 5.1.0. installed
Ok, so i did 2 things here, not sure which one fixed it.
I ran appc setup and let it finish
I removed all the errors around the icons and images that were missing and were the wrong size.
After that it just started working. Not sure which of the 2 fixed it.
I get the following error when I try to user Target IO to run my application. I'm using Windows 7, 64-bit.
[INFO] Installing app on device: is it connected?
[INFO] connect: No error
[INFO] usbmuxd_get_device_list: error opening socket!

I get the following messages when I try to install my application.
[ERROR] Failed when running C:\...win-ios-install.exe: connect: No error
usbmuxd_get_device_list: error opening socket!

Anyone have this error? Any ideas how to resolve it? Thanks.
The problem was that I didn't have iTunes installed. The documentation is here: http://docs.trigger.io/en/v1.4/tools/ios-windows.html#setting-up-forge-to-run-ios-apps
I got the answer from the tigger.io IRC from mib_9fc0ff. Thanks mib_9fc0ff and Amir.
