Jmeter Favicon how to exclude? - jmeter

I did record with blazemeter a test.
Now it is giving me this error The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. at the favicons.
Is there a way to exlude it from the jmeter script?
Or what is another solution?

If the favicon is a separate HTTP Request sampler - add a Response Assertion to it, tick Ignore status box and set the expected response code to the actual one
If the favicon comes with the "embedded resources" you could add the next line to user.properties file:
httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true
and after JMeter restart the problem should go away

Uploaded xml file content is not showing in the request body in Jmeter and the request fails

Uploaded xml file content is not showing in the request body in Jmeter.
Jmeter version: 5.4.1
We have .xml file upload scenario, recorded using Blazemeter. After downloading the recorded script to Jmeter, necessary token co-relation and extracting required values using RegEx been done. Then tried to run the script, it fails at the upload request.
Recorded script doesn't have "FileUpload" tab with location. I updated with the file location too. As suggested in other queries/blogs, observed the traffic using other tools to see if any header value is missing and incorporated that too still it fails at upload request.
Observed that, the request body shows file content in other tools where as in Jmeter the file content is not shown.
ZAP tool request body:
Jmeter:
Also, the headers shows in green color, not sure if any specific reason to look at it under view results tree - http request.
Try re-recording the request (it may be a single request only, enable proxy just for it) using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, it should generate the HTTP Request sampler with "Files upload" section and Use multipart/form-data for POST box checked.
Just make sure to copy the XML file(s) you're uploading to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation prior to uploading the file, this way JMeter will be able to properly "catch" the request.

How to fix "is not willing to disclose that one exists" error in run record of jemeter

I'm recording a scenario in JMeter. After adding "CSV data set config" or "Regular Expression Extractor", I get this error in the response: "The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists."
so my scenario does not work.
What should i do to fix it?
Looking into the error source - it is normal basic HTTP 404 (Not Found) status.
It means that your request URL is pointing to the content which does not exist.
Inspect failing request details using View Results Tree listener and double check the URLs - most probably there are references to not existing content.
In case if main requests are fine one of embedded resources calls might fail, in order to turn off the checks for embedded resources integrity you can add the next line to user.properties file:
httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true
However assuming everything is fine with your JMeter script HTTP 404 errors indicate a SUT issue which needs to be reported and fixed.

JMeter HTTP Request shows a second failed result of a wrong URL

My results tree shows a separate status for a URL connection I have absolutely no idea where it might come from:
The first result with the -0 at the end is that of the request I send willingly. The other connection with the -1 comes out of the void.
In the response body I can see that JMeter fails while trying to resolve the DNS name:
java.net.UnknownHostException: aida.xyz.removed
at java.base/java.net.Inet6AddressImpl.lookupAllHostAddr(Native Method)
at java.base/java.net.InetAddress$PlatformNameService.lookupAllHostAddr(Unknown Source)
This is my definition of the HTTP Request:
As you can see this goes to a totally different host and protocol (http instead of https).
I checked the defined csv, it does not contain the hostname "aid". Same goes for the JMX file and any environment variables set.
I am using Apache JMeter 5.0
After I read Ubiks answer I checked if there are any redirects in the first request. There are no redirects but in the content there are several script and img resources.
It looks like JMeter parses the first request for resources it has to download. But I didn't enable this setting / don't even know where to activate this.
I guess it’s either a redirect issued from response to the first request or because JMeter tries to download embedded resources.
Check the response of first request.
If the reason is that JMeter downloads (probably missing) resources, make sure you disable Retrieve All Embedded Resources in the Advanced tab.
The error you're getting indicates the problem with the system under test, JMeter cannot resolve an embedded resource - image, script, style, font, iframe, whatever.
You need to raise an issue as not available content is not good i.e. for SEO purposes, moreover it might be essential for your application functionality of LAF
If this is a known issue which is in process of fixing (or considered as won't fix) you can turn JMeter's check for embedded resources presence by adding the next line to user.properties file:
httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true
JMeter restart will be required to pick the property up.

Getting erorr 404 while replaying

I recorded a script through chrome extension. but when I replay the script
got error ,I checked in view result tree and expand the sampler there are plenty of files in which a .js file is throwing 404 error.
How can I remove this file(Sample)
Help Please!
enter image description here
You can turn off failures reporting for embedded resources by adding the next line to user.properties file (lives under /bin folder of your JMeter installation)
httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true
JMeter restart will be required to pick the property up.
You can also pass this property via -J command-line argument like:
jmeter -Jhttpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true .....
See Apache JMeter Properties Customization Guide for more information on different JMeter properties types and ways of setting and overriding them

Don't report missing "Embedded Resources" as error in jMeter

In a sample, I checked "Retrieve all Embedded Resources" but now my sample reports an error if a linked resource is missing (HTTP status 404 from the server).
Can I tell my sample to retrieve the embedded resources but to ignore missing or problematic linked resources ? (so I can stop the unit only if a real functional problem occurs, and not when an image is missing)
One possibility is to edit ./bin/jmeter.properties and set httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true as fixed by Bug 44301.
You can work it around using JMeter Assertions
Add a Response Assertion as a child of the sampler which produces 404 code
Configure it as follows:
Apply to: check Main sample and sub-samples
Response fields to test: check Ignore status
In this case erroneous statuses of mail sampler and its children will be ignored.
