I am running appium test and during the test I am trying to activate emulator from remote machine... My test code is starting appium server on the remote machine and then creates android driver. In the remote machine I have emulator and appium installed without running the server. The remote machine IP is : 192.168.14.23 port 4723 In the running machine I have also appium installed. I am using appium version 1.4.13

Here is the log:

Going to execute start appium server: cmd /c C://appium//Appium//node.exe C://appium//Appium//node_modules\appium\bin\appium.js --address 192.168.14.23 --port 4723 [33mwarn[39m: Appium support for versions of node < 0.12 has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version.

And what is your question ? stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask – kebs
Have you tried pinging your remote machine from execution machine. Try ping 192.168.14.23 in a commad prompt to check weather you can access the remote machine from yours – debugger89
Yes, I can ping but still fails – asih

Disable the firewall of both the machines and retry..

You can execute test while hosting appium server in remote machine..

This may also occur if you use virtual network.. is your remote machine is VM??
