Please include the stacktrace and appium.log for triaging. Also what are your capabilities, and how are you starting the appium server?

‘127.0.1.1’

Try ‘127.0.0.1’ (loopback) or better ‘0.0.0.0’ (INADDR_ANY)

You don’t bother to include the linux distro you are using. ‘127.0.1.1’ should be the loopback interface also, but can have slightly different behaviors depending on the linux distro you are using. It can also be just plain wrong.

0.0.0.0

Why does my hostname appear with the address 127.0.1.1 rather than 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts?
