调研方向

使用提供的 macOS 路径从 AppiumServiceBuilder 和 AppiumDriverLocalService 开始，重点关注启动前如何解析 npm 可执行文件和 PATH。使用最小示例重现该故障，并验证本地 Appium 服务器是否成功启动且在 127.0.0.1:4723/status 响应。

描述

bug
Do I have the most recent component updates?
  • I use the most recent available driver/plugin and server versions

Current Behavior

I wanted to upgrade from Appium 1.x to Appium 2.x+ but have been facing an issue when trying to run the appium server from the code. I get this error before it times out: [Appium] 'npm' executable is not found neither in the process working folder (/Users/[user]/Projects/povio-automated-qa) nor in any folders specified in the PATH environment variable (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin). After Timeout I get this:

[The local appium server has not been started, Reason: Timed out waiting for [http://127.0.0.1:4723/status] to be available 
after 20003 ms, Consider increasing the server startup timeout value (currently 20000ms), Node.js executable path: 
/usr/local/bin/node, Arguments: [/opt/homebrew/bin/appium, --port, 4723, --address, 127.0.0.1, --log, 
/Users/[user]/Projects/povio-automated-qa/target/resources/appium_server_logs1, --session-override], Output: [Appium] 
'npm' executable is not found neither in the process working folder (/Users/mmeholli/Projects/povio-automated-qa) nor in any 
folders specified in the PATH environment variable (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin)
]

I have tried increasing the timeout, upgrading and downgrading appium, selenium, java, node, and have checked environmental variables for any potential fix, but nothing works.

This is the current code that I'm working with:

AppiumServiceBuilder appiumServiceBuilder = new AppiumServiceBuilder();
        appiumServiceBuilder.usingPort(PORT)
                .withIPAddress("127.0.0.1")
                .withAppiumJS(new File("/opt/homebrew/bin/appium"))
                .usingDriverExecutable(new File("/usr/local/bin/npm"))
                .withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.SESSION_OVERRIDE)
                .withLogFile(new File(System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/target/resources/appium_server_logs" + Thread.currentThread().getId()));
        service = AppiumDriverLocalService.buildService(appiumServiceBuilder);
        service.start();

I am using:
Appium 2.0.1
java-client 8.6.0
Selenium 4.9.1

Expected Behavior

I am expecting the appium server to start from the code

Minimal Reproducible Example
AppiumServiceBuilder appiumServiceBuilder = new AppiumServiceBuilder();
        appiumServiceBuilder.usingPort(PORT)
                .withIPAddress("127.0.0.1")
                .withAppiumJS(new File("/opt/homebrew/bin/appium"))
                .usingDriverExecutable(new File("/usr/local/bin/npm"))
                .withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.SESSION_OVERRIDE)
                .withLogFile(new File(System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/target/resources/appium_server_logs" + Thread.currentThread().getId()));
        service = AppiumDriverLocalService.buildService(appiumServiceBuilder);
        service.start();
