I am trying to Recode the test Script of VPN accessed Website and for that i am using JMeter HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and start connection by using the localhost but by analysis i monitor that JMeter send request and in Remote server section it send [::1]:Port this value so please help me how to change this method and share Remote IP in Remote Address section
If you want to switch JMeter to use IPv4 localhost loopback address - 127.0.0.1 you need to add the next line to system.properties file:
java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
More information:
Java Networking Properties
Apache JMeter Properties Customization Guide
You will also need to configure the browser to not to bypass proxy for local addresses, i.e. for Firefox you need to set network.proxy.allow_hijacking_localhost option to true

I am working on FTP Sampler and connecting with Public FTP Server
"ftp.swfwmd.state.fl.us" for "Get" method.
But JMeter is showing following error in LOG:
Response code: 000 Response message: java.net.UnknownHostException:
ftp.swfwmd.state.fl.us
Please help me out in this problem.
The message indicate host is not known from your machine.
So check your DNS or add manually an entry in your DNS.
Try accessing the server using IP address instead of hostname - 204.76.241.31
If point 1 doesn't help most probably you are sitting behind corporate firewall. For HTTP-based samplers you can specify proxy server details by adding the next lines to system.properties file (lives in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation)
ftp.proxyHost=hostname or IP address of your proxy
ftp.proxyPort=port of your proxy server
if above doesn't help you can try setting the following properties instead:
socksProxyHost=hostname or IP address of your proxy
socksProxyPort=port of your proxy server (normally 1080)
JMeter restart will be required to pick the properties up

I need to perform JMETER TEST and Record a WEB Login Page, my company is behind the proxy. If I change the proxy and port of the Firefox to 8080, My Application doesn't launch.
If I don't change the proxy in Firefox, Then the recorder doesn't record the script.
I tried with IE, Where due to corporate policy, I cant change the policy and it is disabled.
How I get out of this situation?
You need to keep Firefox proxy settings to point to JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, i.e. server name should be localhost, port should be 8888
In its turn JMeter needs to be configured to use your corporate proxy, it can be done in 2 ways:
Via command-line parameters, like:
jmeter -H your_corporate_proxy_host -P your_corporate_proxy_port -n -t ...
this way the change will be applied only once
If you want the changes to be permanent you can add the following lines to system.properties file (located in the "bin" folder of your JMeter installation)
http.proxyHost=your_corporate_proxy_host
http.proxyPort=your_corporate_proxy_port
https.proxyHost=your_corporate_proxy_host
https.proxyPort=your_corporate_proxy_port

Please guide me what all are the settings needs to be done in jmeter while recording an https request through jmeter. I am getting unknown host exception while doing the same.
Thanks
Assumption 1: you have misconfigured JMeter and/or browser. You can get JMeter configured for recording in a couple of clicks using Templates feature.
From JMeter's main menu select File -> Templates -> Recording -> Create
Configure your browser to use the following proxy:
Proxy host: hostname or IP address where JMeter is running
Proxy port: 8888
Use proxy for all protocols (if available) - check
Bypass proxy for local addresses (or equivalent) - uncheck
Assumption 2: you (or your company) are using corporate proxy to access Internet and/or intranet. In that case you need to pass proxy details to JMeter startup script like:
jmeter -H proxy_host -P proxy_port ...
See Using JMeter behind a proxy guide for more information on the domain.
You can also consider an alternative solution which allows recording JMeter test right from browser without having to configure proxies, worry about SSL certificates, etc. Check out JMeter Chrome Extension
For unknown host exception, you should add the domain name and ip address pair in hosts file. For windows, this file is present at C:\Windows\System32\driver\etc\.
For example:
102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com
For recording HTTP requests through JMeter, you have to configure some elements in your system. Steps are :
1.Add thread to test plan.
2.Add recording controller to plan
3.Add Http Proxy Server to Work Bench
4.address 127.0.0.1 port is 8888
5.Start proxy server
6.go on the recording when finished stop proxy server.
You have to configure your browser setting or install Certificates to record through JMeter. For step by step JMeter Proxy setting follow this PDF Step by step JMeter HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder Configuration
I am new to Jmeter and unable to record script using Jmeter. Eventhough I have followed the instruction provided by Apache.Jmeter.org. Pls update me with the few esay steps to move on.
Thanks,
Karthik.
If you are recording the script you can follow sequence,
Jmeter becomes your proxy and records everything between your real proxy and you so make proxy as localhost and port no as 8080 for http
if you are trying record a script for application running on proxy/local machine then above setup is enough
if you want to record script for a application on WAN then start jmeter like,
Jmeter - H "proxy which you are using" -P "port no" <-u "username" -a "password">
by default test plan is present when you start jmeter
add threadgroup and proxy recorder in script
start recording
If you have difficulties in setting up HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder (despite the fact it's perfectly documented in JMeter Proxy Step by Step guide you could try using Google Chrome JMeter plugin which allows JMeter scripts recording right from browser without needing to worry about proxies, browser extra configuration, SSL certificates, etc.
The most common error for using JMeter proxy is Do not use proxy for localhost / 127.0.0.1. If you have this or similar option in your browser make sure that it's disabled

To record scripts in Jmeter we need to run the proxy in local port 8080, where as in browser I need to configure for internet connectivity proxy to connect to internet.
The company I work for is providing me internet through a proxy server.
Any one who knows how to record script using Jmeter while there is already internet proxy set up in the browser to connect to internet.
Thank you
I believe that your company uses PAC file to connect to the internet. JMeter will not execute PAC file. Refer JMeter is not a browser. PAC file has javascript which will not execute by JMeter.
Using browser developer tools or by asking your Network Admin or IT support team, you can get which IP being used by your company to connect to the internet.
Once you got the IP address, you can follow the steps mentioned by George in this thread to record/reply successfully.
You can provide the proxy server settings by running JMeter from command line like that:
jmeter -H [proxy server hostname or ip address]
-P [proxy server port]
-u[username for proxy authentication - if required]
-a [password for proxy authentication - if required]
Then you should set localhost and the port specified in HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder as the proxy address and port in your browser.
