I am trying to record some user actions performed on UI, using JMeter. As I try to upload a file, I choose file and click upload. But the upload doesn't take place. This problem appears only during the recording and not when I perform the same action without JMeter.
Could you please suggest what could be possible reasons and possible solutions?
I am using firefox and JMeter 5.4.1
You need to copy the file(s) you're uploading to the "bin" folder of your JMeter installation, only this way JMeter will be able to properly build the relevant HTTP Request sampler and HTTP Header Manager.

My JMeter script doesnt download woff, png, jpg. I checked script and all of config elements, no where I am specifying not to downlaod them but still it's not downloading them. Can anyone tell me the reason.
You need to "specify to download them", JMeter won't do it automatically.
Add HTTP Request Defaults configuration element (if it's not there yet)
On "Advanced" tab tick Retrieve All Embedded Resources from HTML Files and Use concurrent pool
It's also a good idea to add HTTP Cache Manager to replicate browser behaviour when it comes to handling resources caching

Demo:
After recording a script in j-meter which uploads an image in website, if i again execute a script than user is able to upload a image which was recorded in script. Now a problem is that how can i upload a new image while executing a script?
Locate the relevant HTTP Request sampler which performs the image upload. Normally the criteria are:
Use multupart-form/data box is checked
There is something in Files upload tab
Once done you should be able to change File path to point to the new file and MIME Type if it is different. Remember either to use full path to the new file or copy the new file to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation so JMeter could find it.

As part of my perfomance test i need to upload and submit excel/.csv files.
My flow is below.
1. Login
2. Create new account
3. Click on the upload button
4. Select excel or .csv file
5. Click on the submit button
I need to cover this using single jmeter script.
Please any one can help me.
Just record your test scenario using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, the key points are:
Make sure to copy your csv/excel file(s) to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation - this way JMeter will be able to capture the upload request
Make sure to perform correlation of all dynamic parameters
Make sure to add HTTP Cookie Manager to your test plan
See Apache JMeter proxy Step-by-step guide for comprehensive information on configuring JMeter for recording.
I have successfully uploaded images and text separately or one by one, but I have trouble to experiment upload images and text simultaneously, is there a solution ??
If you are uncertain regarding how to mimic this or that request you can just record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder. JMeter should be smart enough to capture the request and populate the relevant HTTP Request sampler configuration.
Just keep in mind one hint: put the file(s) you will be uploading using browser in JMeter's "bin" folder, this way JMeter will be able to intercept the requests. See Recording File Uploads with JMeter article for more details.
I have a aspx webpage which is integrated with SSRS reports.I want to perform a performance test using Jmeter,I used the Jmeter HTTP(S) script recorder for the same.
It was seen that the response data captured by Jmeter returns error message stating as below
Report Viewer Configuration Error
The Report Viewer Web Control HTTP Handler has not been registered in the application's web.config file. Add to the system.web/httpHandlers section of the web.config file, or add to the system.webServer/handlers section for Internet Information Services 7 or later.
and will not the show the report data as the response though the POST was successfull.
In the above context the jmeter test is intended to test the response time of reports.
Could anyone please help me on this.
Thanks in Advance,

When it comes to modern web applications, record and replay may not work as there could be some dynamic parameters responsible for preserving and controlling values or protecting from CSRF attacks so you will need to build you test as follows:
Open 1st page
Detect all dynamic parameters and convert them into JMeter Variables
Open 2nd page providing dynamic parameters extracted in the previous step
The process is known as correlation and you can find a plenty of articles by searching "JMeter correlation" over the web.
