I am getting error while trying to check orientation of app?

[vaibhav_khachane]

I have trying following code but it displays error message:

driver.rotate(org.openqa.selenium.ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE);
Thread.sleep(5000);
driver.rotate(org.openqa.selenium.ScreenOrientation.PORTRAIT);
Thread.sleep(5000);

Error message:-
An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command.
(WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)

driver.rotate will set the device orientation as specified in param and getOrientation will return the current orientation of the device.

 driver.rotate(ScreenOrientation.PORTRAIT);
 driver.getOrientation();

[vaibhav_khachane]

Getting this error

[Suman_Bala]

you have semicolon ( ; ) before driver.rotate(). I think if you remove the semicolon it should work.

[vaibhav_khachane]

I have remove semicolon , but error remain exist..

[Suman_Bala]

Did you import org.openqa.selenium.*;

If yes, then could you share full code. I think the problem is somewhere else not in ScreenOrientation. This is how I set orientation to Landscape.

 driver.rotate(ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE);

[vaibhav_khachane]

Yes i have import import org.openqa.selenium.*;

Code is like:-

public void performOrientation() throws InterruptedException
{

    System.out.println("Current screen orientation Is : " + driver.getOrientation());

     driver.rotate(org.openqa.selenium.ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE);
     System.out.println("Now screen orientation Is : "+ driver.getOrientation());
     Thread.sleep(5000);
     System.out.println("Changing screen Orientation to PORTRAIT.");
     driver.rotate(org.openqa.selenium.ScreenOrientation.PORTRAIT);
     System.out.println("Now screen orientation Is : "+ driver.getOrientation());
     Thread.sleep(5000);

 }

I have getting following error . Please help i am just stuck in it.

[TestNG] Running:
C:\Users\prabu\AppData\Local\Temp\testng-eclipse-1354138621\testng-customsuite.xml

Is you app locked in portrait mode?

[vaibhav_khachane]

No..Its working for portrait and landscape mode

[Suman_Bala]

Did you check your device settings? Also, are you testing on real device or emulator?

[vaibhav_khachane]

Device setting is correct..but still getting following error

FAILED: performOrientation
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)

The above test case have passed while i have
manually change screen orientation. But it failed while keeping device
stable. Error log appium server:-info: [debug] [BOOTSTRAP] [debug]
Returning result: {"status":13,"value":"Set the orientation, but app
refused to rotate."}

[vaibhav_khachane]

I have checked with Dev, they set orientation=Full sensor, that's why my test case fails. but i have
checked same test case twitter app, test case executes successfully. Is any solution on it?? please provide me solution..

[Suman_Bala]

Screen rotation will fail when app or device is locked into portrait mode. That's the reason you are getting this error message - Set the orientation, but app
refused to rotate."
