findNodeInCurrentFileSystem fails at command.destroy()

[deepng]

The problem

Looks like Appium is looking for a tmp file to destroy, but is not finding it while trying to start the server - rm: /tmp/deepak.start.74839

Environment

• Appium version (or git revision) that exhibits the issue: 1.20.2
• Last Appium version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable):
• Desktop OS/version used to run Appium:m Mac OS X 11.2.3
• Node.js version (unless using Appium.app|exe): v12.22.1
• Npm or Yarn package manager: npm v = 6.14.12
• Mobile platform/version under test: Android
• Real device or emulator/simulator: Real Device
• Appium CLI or Appium.app|exe: I have tried both CLI and app

Details

I am unable to build the Appium Server using this standard line appiumDriverLocalService = AppiumDriverLocalService.buildDefaultService();

I get the following error message

io.appium.java_client.service.local.InvalidServerInstanceException: Invalid server instance exception has occured: There is no installed nodes! Please install node via NPM (https://www.npmjs.com/package/appium#using-node-js) or download and install Appium app (http://appium.io/downloads.html)

Code To Reproduce Issue [ Good To Have ]

            final AppiumServiceBuilder appiumServiceBuilder = new AppiumServiceBuilder();

                    .usingAnyFreePort().build();
