Appium 1.7.2 python，红米 note3 ，android 5.1.1 手机，启动就报无效的 android 版本：Encountered internal error running command: TypeError: Invalid Version: android-4.4.2

“ Failed at the appium-chromedriver@3.1.4 install script”
设置一个环境变量重定向 chromedriver 下载地址,方法如下:
windows:
set CHROMEDRIVER_CDNURL=http://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/chromedriver/
Linux 或 MAC:
export CHROMEDRIVER_CDNURL=http://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/chromedriver/
然后再执行安装命令,您会发现下载链接变成 taobao 的了

同样的问题，期待解决方法。

我是 mac，今天在网上看了一下安装 appium 时不能用 sudo 可能会在后面导致问题，所以我就在终端用 sudo appium 启动的 appium，完了就没有报这个错误，并且执行了例程

我去 appium 的 github 上面提问，找到了解决办法：
我们知道在 $ANDROID_HOME/build-tools 目录中。
$ ls $ANDROID_HOME/build-tools
一般来说，例如，我们可以看到以下结果，但是您的日志看起来是您 android-4.4W 命名的目录。
23.0.1 23.0.3 25.0.0 25.0.1 25.0.2 26.0.0 26.0.2
所以只需要把 build-tools 文件夹里面的 android-4.4W 重命名为 20.0.0 就好了。
如果报错的不是 4.4W，那么就把安卓文件夹改为对应的版本号就行了。这个版本的 appium 只能识别 23.0.1 这种文件夹，不能识别 android-4.4W 这种文件夹

请问一下 Encountered internal error running command: TypeError: Invalid Version: android-4.4.2 你这个报错修复了吗？遇到了同样的问题
