Unable to create session for iOS test on LambdaTest

[alokkr016]

The issue pertains to an error encountered while attempting to create a session using Appium, specifically involving the createSession command. Despite the default handlers being registered, the command was instead processed by the device-farm plugin. During this process, an internal error occurred, indicated by the message: "Unknown error while creating session."

@alokkr016 Looks like the request to lambdatest server are failing due to timeout which is default to 60s. Can you increase the timeout to some higher value using the plugin argument --plugin-device-farm-remote-connection-timeout 120000 (in MilliSeconds)

[alokkr016]

Still getting the same error : https://gist.github.com/alokkr016/d05a2936ceb5ce7cc525cd60629b4cd4 Even when I am able to create a session, the commands are not being sent. Could you please tell me which new capabilities I should add or remove from the current ones?

@alokkr016 looks like your machine is unable to connect lambdatest hub. Can you check if your behind proxy

[alokkr016]

I am able to connect after increasing the remote connection timeout, but I am not able to Send Commands
