Unable to create a session using Appium

Hi,

I've got issues while trying to set up Android automated tests with Automation Testing service.

 

Through my local Java Appium project, whenever I try to create new instance of AndroidDriver, the server responds with following error:

org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Unable to create a new remote session. Please check the server log for more details. Original error: org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)

I've tried to contact Appium server "manually" but ended with not much informations regarding the cause:

 

 

 

{
    "sessionId": null,
    "message": "org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException",
    "value": {
        "message": "org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException",
        "origValue": "org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException"
    },
    "status": 33
}

 

 

The project is using Appium java-client 7.6.0 as Maven dependency. I've also checked that there are no conflicts regarding HttpClient dependency (using same as java-client's which is 4.5.13 ).

Capabilities used are the ones recommended while completing the form here: https://cloud.bitbar.com/#testing/test-run-creator 

{

    "bitbar_description": "Implementation of BitBar in stack",

    "bitbar_device": "Google Pixel 3a Android 12",
    "bitbar_project": "MyProject"
  }

Targeted Appium server is this one: https://eu-mobile-hub.bitbar.com/wd/hub/

 

Since there are no informations returned from the server, could anyone provide a bit of help regarding this matter ?

Thanks a lot.
