Hi, Thanks for your advice. The reason i’m getting this error is because of katalon studio incompatibility with appium. My katalon studio is 8.6.5 using appium 2.0.1. Can refer in this page:

Known limitations​

  • Executing tests with TestCloud mobile browsers using KRE is currently not supported yet.
  • iOS 16 requires Appium 2.x and Xcode 14. However, Appium 2.x and Xcode 14 are not officially supported in this release. You can download the Proof of Concept for Appium 2.x and Xcode 14 from our GitHub repository: 8.5.4.alpha. For more details, refer to Execute mobile tests with Appium 2.x in Katalon Studio (PoC).

@ainamohdabdaziz If you want to continue to use appium 2.0.1 with Katalon Studio version 8.6.5 you can use remote execution instead of iOS execution as long as you start the appium server manually.

I tried to start appium server manually by using this command. Appium -a 127.0.0.1 -p 4723 but I still receive the same error
