Appium failed to start New Session

I am new to Appium. I want to launch site (amazon.in) in Chrome browser on Mobile for which I downloaded the latest appium-desktop 1.7.0 installed in my Win7 machine.
I started the Appium server running on port 5000 and clicked on start inspector section. Added Desired Capabilities under Automatic Server tab as below
{
"udid": "c78cd64b7ce4",
"browserName": "Browser",
"platformVersion": "7.1.2",
"platformName": "Android",
"noReset": true,
"automationName": "UiAutomator2",
"deviceName": "Android"
}
On clicking 'Start Session' its throwing error as "An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Command 'java -version' exited with code 2"
In console logs is showng as

Please look into same.

Since you are trying to test web app in browser, why not to do it this way:
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME, "Android Emulator");
capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, MobileBrowserType.BROWSER);
// if chrome is installed, but not default one - use MobileBrowserType.CHROME
AppiumDriver<MobileElement> driver = new AndroidDriver<>(
new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),
capabilities
);
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.get("https://us.justdial.com");
It works perfectly for me with Appium java client 5.0.4 / server 1.7.1

Removed "Unlock" and "Appium settings" apps from device - Appium installs those apps automatically.
Also, passed appium arguments in my scripts. Below are the changes:

Reinstalling appium 1.6.1 not helped me.
But I resolved my issue after downgrade appium to 1.5.3 and upgrade back to 1.6.1.
Apparently version 1.5.3 pulled up the missing libraries. But why 1.6.1 didn't do it I don't know.

Upgrade your node click here
Should work

Looks like your node version is less than the required for Appium 1.4.13.
automation-name Appium --log-no-color warn: Appium support for versions of node < 0.12
Check your node version like this:
node --version v0.12.4

Appium: How do you run Java tests and devices on local machine against a remote appium server

Is it possible to have Appium running on a remote machine, while having a device connected to a local machine, and also run the tests from the local machine?
Currently, Appium continues to check adb for devices where Appium is running (which of course there is none) and fails after timing out. I have zero problems running Appium locally.
Here are my Capabilities running from the Local machine where the device is connected ( IP: 192.168.1.78 ) :
#Before
public void setUp() throws Exception
{
final DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "");
capabilities.setCapability("appium-version", "1.2");
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "4.4");
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "SCH-I545");
capabilities.setCapability("appPackage", "<appPackage_goes_here>");
capabilities.setCapability("appActivity", "<appActivity_goes_here>");
driver = new AppiumDriver(new URL("http://192.168.2.109:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}
And here is the Appium Console Log from the Remote machine ( IP: 192.168.2.109 ):
