In Mac: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command Original error: Could not find adb

While I start new session in APPIUM am getting the below error prompted in appium:

An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Could not find 'adb' in ["/Library/platform-tools/adb/platform-tools/adb","/Library/platform-tools/adb/emulator/adb","/Library/platform-tools/adb/tools/adb","/Library/platform-tools/adb/tools/bin/adb"]. Do you have Android Build Tools installed at '/Library/platform-tools/adb'?

Is there any solution for MacOs?

Solution

Make sure you setup env variable properly.

nano ~/.bash_profile

Set variables making sure the path is correct

export ANDROID_HOME=/LOCAL_PATH_TO/android-sdk
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH

Verify that it is working:

source ~/.bash_profile
echo $ANDROID_HOME

You can also install appium-doctor tool to check you got everything setup for Appium:

npm install appium-doctor -g

Check setup for Android testing

appium-doctor --android
