'start_test_server_in_background' has issue with new version 0.9.6

[aosng007]

Following command executed with different results by calabash-android version 0.9.5 and 0.9.6

calabash-android resign
calabash-android console
reinstall_apps
reinstall_test_server
start_test_server_in_background

• with calabash-android 0.9.5 and rubyzip 1.2.1  -> apk lunched successfully after executed start_test_server_in_background.

• with calabash-android 0.9.6 and rubyzip 1.2.2 (which needs to be updated as well if execute cmd with bundle exec),  I get error message when execute calabash-android console
  No test server found for this combination of app and calabash version. Recreating test server.

I'm having the exact same issue. If someone could post a solution it would be appreciated!

[aosng007]

@ruttuk , I've worked out a temp solution that specify version with calabash-android 0.9.5 and rubyzip 1.2.1 in Gemfile, which can stop automatically upgrade into up-to-date version

[ruttuk]

@aosng007 This worked! Thank you!

I have updated my gemfile -

frozen_string_literal: true

source "https://rubygems.org"

git_source(:github) {|repo_name| "https://github.com/#{repo_name}" }
gem 'calabash-android', '0.9.5'
gem 'rubyzip', '1.2.1'

gem "rails"

and also added this in gemfile as well
source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'calabash-android', '0.9.5'
gem 'cucumber'
gem 'mongo'
gem 'json'
gem 'rubyzip', '1.2.1'

but still having issues - RuntimeError: Failed to start application. Starting took more than 60 seconds: HTTPClient::ReceiveTimeoutError - execution expired

[harvinderkaur]

Can someone share the exacts steps on how to get it working.

[gunesmes]

@harvinderkaur have you uninstalled the instrument_backend app in your device?

[harvinderkaur]

@gunesmes how do i do that. Any steps to it.

[AndreyMitsyk]

@harvinderkaur just remove it from app list e.g. on clear android: settings->Apps&notification -> See all apps ->instrument_backend -> uninstall

[harvinderkaur]

@AndreyMitsyk - Have tried and I still get the same error.
