I am trying to run Appium on a real iOS device. I have been able to successfully run it on android, but when I try running for iOS I get the error. Here is my environment:
Appium v1.8.0
iPhone SE 11.2.6
Xcode 9.3.1
I’ve read that error 65 is often caused by using a free account, but I’m using the xcodeSigningId for our development team.
I would rather the automatic configuration work, but I tried the manual configuration anyway, but I don’t think I did it right. I followed the steps from this site:
https://huddle.eurostarsoftwaretesting.com/how-to-set-up-appium-on-a-mac-fast-java/
This command from this site did not work for me:
xcodebuild -project WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj -scheme WebDriverAgentRunner -destination ‘id=af916cc5486cf9cb85ddde19f97949ecd6c62c66’ test
This command does not work, neither before nor after I changed the id out for my phone’s uid. I get the error:
option ‘Destination’ requires at least one parameter of the form ‘key=value'
but I’m not sure where this key is supposed to come from or how exactly to format it.
I’ve also tried redownloading various dependencies, making sure I didn’t use sudo. This didn’t help.
I’ve included the full Appium log below:

[HTTP]
I've been stuck on this problem for so many days. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The error you get is the most common error with Appium on iOS/real device.
Strongly suggest to use official Appium documentation: iOS real device setup
Blog posts are good, but they are usually not maintained, so may contain outdated information.
Follow the steps in documentation and make sure you have valid Apple developer account, you need to to sign WebDriverAgent with it.
Thats the most tricky part, if your account is set properly - the process goes smoothly.
