Current Behavior

After migration from Appium 1 to Appium 2 (also Selenium 3 to Selenium 4) all my tests are not working. The issue is related to connection from java client to local Appium server

Java code is returning error:

org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure. Host info: host: 'POLO-1357.lan', ip: 'fe80:0:0:0:1835:b628:a560:a83b%en0' 

Server is not logging anything from this test
Im starting server via CLI:
appium server --address 127.0.0.1 --port 4723 --allow-cors
*I know that the port 4723 is a default one so can be omitted

When I will call simple GET /status or /sessions I can reach response from my local server:

[HTTP] --> GET /status [HTTP] {} [debug] [AppiumDriver@53b3] Calling AppiumDriver.getStatus() with args: [] [debug] [AppiumDriver@53b3] Responding to client with driver.getStatus() result: {"build":{"version":"2.0.0-beta.66"}} [HTTP] <-- GET /status 304 3 ms - - [HTTP] [HTTP] --> GET /status [HTTP] {} [debug] [AppiumDriver@53b3] Calling AppiumDriver.getStatus() with args: [] [debug] [AppiumDriver@53b3] Responding to client with driver.getStatus() result: {"build":{"version":"2.0.0-beta.66"}} [HTTP] <-- GET /status 304 1 ms - - [HTTP] [HTTP] --> GET /sessions [HTTP] {} [debug] [AppiumDriver@53b3] Calling AppiumDriver.getSessions() with args: [] [debug] [AppiumDriver@53b3] Responding to client with driver.getSessions() result: [] [HTTP] <-- GET /sessions 304 2 ms - - 

Im trying to run test on real iOS Device (which was used by Appium 1 already - so was working before the upgrade)

Driver Initialisation:

 XCUITestOptions options = new XCUITestOptions(); options.setPlatformName(Platform.IOS.name()); options.setPlatformVersion(device.getPlatformVersion()); options.setDeviceName(device.getName()); options.setUdid(device.getUdid()); options.setBundleId("MY_BUNDLE_ID"); options.setXcodeCertificate(new XcodeCertificate("GY9QC33CMS", "Apple Development")); options.setAutomationName(AutomationName.IOS_XCUI_TEST); options.setIncludeSafariInWebviews(true); IOSDriver driver = new IOSDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723"), options); 

When Im trying to use Appium Inspector it is possible to attach to the device but first, I have to run WebDriverAgentRunner application on my iOS Device, without that it will not work. Even when WDA Runner was launched and Im trying to start tests, the connection is still not working.

I tried many things and always failed to run some tests. The same for Android Device and also regular Selenium Driver is not starting any browser. At the moment the most important thing is to fix Appium to unblock native mobile tests

PS
Im not able to register or login to discuss Appium forum. All options are not working for me (email, GitHub, google) that's why Im asking for support here

Expected Behavior
