the error message i’m getting is, "io.appium.java_client.service.local.InvalidServerInstanceException: Invalid server instance exception has occured: There is no installed nodes! Please install node via NPM "

Appium and node is already installed.

@Aleksei tried workaround with everything , but nothing helps

@Aleksei do i need to configure nodejs in my jenkins ?? as i have not configured nodejs on my jenkins.
it just acting as to trigger my test cases.
Appium version - 1.7.2
npm verion - 3.10.10
machine - AWS(windows 8.1)

here is my code that i have added to start my appium through program in my script ,

private AppiumDriverLocalService service;
private AppiumServiceBuilder builder;
private DesiredCapabilities cap;

public void startServer() {
	//Set Capabilities
	cap = new DesiredCapabilities();
	cap.setCapability("noReset", "false");
	
	//Build the Appium service
	builder = new AppiumServiceBuilder();
	builder.withIPAddress("127.0.0.1");
	builder.usingPort(4723);
	builder.withCapabilities(cap);
	builder.withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.SESSION_OVERRIDE);
	builder.withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.LOG_LEVEL,"error");
	
	//Start the server with the builder
	service = AppiumDriverLocalService.buildService(builder);
	service.start();
}

public void stopServer() {
	service.stop();
}

}

@Aleksei Yes Appium is working fine locally in AWS via GUI appium or Console,
just not sure about the about the user thing, will check on this

yes the requirement is to run the test cases on daily basis so the appium in AWS cloud,
regarding the android device i’m using ‘Genymotion on Demand’ .

Running emulator on AWS will be a hectic job.
Android Virtual Device based on an ARM system image (This is 10x slower than hardware accelerated virtualisation).
so the cloud device via ‘Genymotion on Demand’.
