AWS appium ios test always fail

Question

I am implementing aws automation testing using appium junit .

i am trying to run my testing script on aws device farm , my test script is working fine on simulator but its failing on aws devices. error does not describes the problem correctly.

Whenever i run my script on aws devices it gives me following error. when i see the video, application was successfully launched and then nothing happens on the screen. i can see first popup that asks to allow push notifications and then after popover gets dismiss nothing happens.

  failed: An error occurred while executing user supplied JavaScript.

and here is my java appium test script

DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME, MobilePlatform.IOS);
        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "9.1");
        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME, "iPhone 5s");
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, MobilePlatform.IOS);
        capabilities.setCapability("autoAcceptAlerts", true);
        capabilities.setCapability("showIOSLog", true);
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.SUPPORTS_NETWORK_CONNECTION, true);



        String path = "/Users/home/Desktop/";
        File app;
        app = new File(path,"projectapp.ipa");
        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, app.getAbsolutePath());

        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.FULL_RESET, false);
        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.NO_RESET, true);

        URL url =new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub");
        driver = new IOSDriver<WebElement>(url, capabilities);
