HTTP/2 Request with JMeter fails with "nullSession" (jetty-alpn) - jmeter

I've installed the Blazemeter HTTP/2 Plugin for JMeter and have trouble getting HTTP/2 requests to work.
My minimal test looks like this:
Thread Group
HTTP2 Request
Server: stackoverflow.com
Protocol: https
View Result Tree Http2
Running the test shows the following sampler result in the view result tree:

My Setup:
I am using JMeter 5.2.1 with OpenJDK 8 (openjdk version "1.8.0_252") on Linux (version 5.6.15-arch1-1)
(Got the same results with JMeter 5.3 on Ubuntu 20.04, running in CLI mode)
I added the following line at the top of my jmeter startup script, as per requirement of the HTTP/2 plugin:
JVM_ARGS="-Xbootclasspath/p:/opt/jmeter/lib/alpn-boot-8.1.13.v20181017.jar"
How can I solve or debug this issue?
Update:
I found out that as soon as I use alpn-boot as mentioned above, I have the same behavior for regular HTTP requests, so it seems to be a problem from that library. There is a mapping table for jetty-alpn versions against Java versions at https://github.com/jetty-project/jetty-alpn/blob/master/docs/version_mapping.properties and it currently does not contain my Java version.
The docs say
The table only shows the mapping up to OpenJDK 8u242, the last version that required the ALPN boot jar.
But if I start JMeter without the alpn argument, I see results like this (HTTP/2 with HTTPS):
Response code:Non HTTP response code: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException
Response message:Non HTTP response message: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No Client ALPNProcessors!


As I found out, the combination of OpenJDK 8u252 and Jetty 9.4.26 (shipped with JMeter) is not compatible.
The ALPN APIs have been backported to Java 8u252 and Jetty 9.4.28, and alpn-boot is not needed anymore.
More information: https://webtide.com/jetty-alpn-java-8u252/
Updating the Jetty libraries to 9.4.28 helped:
Download files from https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/jetty/jetty-distribution/9.4.28.v20200408/ and https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/jetty/jetty-client/9.4.28.v20200408/
Replace jetty*-9.4.26* files in jmeter/lib by their 9.4.28 counterparts from the downloaded archive
Update: List of files

JMeter Firefox Driver Config unable to launch browser

I am attempting to use JMeter's FireFox Driver config so that I can use a Web Driver Sampler to wait for a page to process an internal, automated OAuth process that redirects the page, but I am running into an issue with JMeter loading Firefox.
The only error that prints for it is Failed to connect binary FirefoxBinary but there is zero additional information that I understand.
What additional steps do I need to take that literally every single tutorial on how to use Firefox Driver Config in JMeter seems to not tell you?
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Failed to connect to binary FirefoxBinary(/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin) on port 7055; process output follows:

UPDATE
I went ahead and tried to use Firefox 26 instead, but now I am getting an even less helpful error.
Here are the details of my environment:
JMeter: 5.1.1
Firefox: 26.0
Selenium/WebDriver Kit: 2.52.0
Here is the error I am getting now:

And here is the set up I followed from BlazeMeter's tutorial updated in April of 2019:
What else do I need to do to get Jmeter to run these tests??? Would be nice if there was documentation that was up to date and explained all the requirements.

Looking into your output:
Build info: version: '2.52.0',
According to Selenium Changelog you can use Firefox version 46 or older with this Selenium Firefox Driver 2.52.0 so either consider downgrading your Firefox to Firefox 46 or upgrade to the latest version of WebDriver Sampler Plugin which is version 3.1 as of now, this way you will be able to use modern Firefoxen via GeckoDriver.
You can install new JMeter Plugins and keep old ones up-to-date using JMeter Plugins Manager

parametrize variable in Jmeter problem with csv

I testing backend application, which is in NodeJS and Java technology. communication: WebSocket in NodeJs part and HTTP in Java part) in JMeter I must parametrize URL, to switch between development URL, production and prepod.
I did it by CSV file. I created folder CSV, in the folder where I have Jmeter 5.0. I prepare 3 CSV file I have three csv file in folder bin in Jmeter such as: development.csv, production.csv. and prepod.csv
My CSV files are following:
protocol, host http, 10.219.227.66 ws, 10.219.227.66
protocol, host
https, prepod.myprepod.io ws, prepod.myprepod.io
protocol, host
https, production.myproduction.io ws, production.myproduction.io
and I have set in Jmeter: WebSocket Open Connection Serwer URL – ws Server name or IP - ${host}
CSV Data Set Config ${__P(environment,development)}.csv
and this project doesnt run in log I have: Caused by:

what is wrong, how I must improve this? please help me

Your issue is that JMeter looks for the file in :
jmeter/5.0/bin/development.csv
While it is in:
/usr/local/Cellar/jmeter/5.0/bin/development.csv
So to make the path stable, use a property called resdir that will reference the folder containing CSV files:
${__P(resdir, /usr/local/Cellar/jmeter/5.0/bin/)}/${__P(environment,development)}.csv
Put your jmx file wherever you want and run jmeter bin folder using:
jmeter -t <full path to test.jmx> -Jresdir=/usr/local/Cellar/jmeter/5.0/bin/ -l results.csc -e -o report-folder
And put your CSVs in /usr/local/Cellar/jmeter/5.0/bin/

JMeter 3.3 keeps stating class not found

I have seen multiple questions asking something similar to what I'm asking but for some reason, it's not working for me. I'm using the Jmeter 3.3 app (the latest at this point in time) so maybe the advice doesn't work on the newest version of JMeter.
I'm trying to create a test plan with JMeter to test hitting my DB.

One answer/advice said to copy the jar (in my case ImpalaJDBC4.jar) to the lib dir, then restart JMeter, which I did. I also put it in the lib/ext dir too. However, it still doesn't work for me. I keep getting the same error in jmeter.log:
Uncaught Exception java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.cloudera.impala.core.ImpalaJDBCDriver. See log file for details.
Not sure if path matters but I run jmeter from:
$ ~/tmp/apache-jmeter-3.3> bin/jmeter
and from
$ ~/tmp/apache-jmeter-3.3/bin> jmeter
Is there something I'm missing here? Am I putting it in the wrong place in JMeter? I know the driver class is there because I checked the contents of the jar file:
jar tvf ImpalaJDBC4.jar | less
2680 Thu Jan 04 08:11:12 PST 2018 com/cloudera/impala/core/ImpalaJDBCDriver.class
Thanks in advance for your help. I'm tired of banging my head against the wall.
Here are the logs. I tried to sanitize it so please ignore anything that might not be correct to do my sanitization.

First, To check that your TCP server is really running, run :
telnet host:port
If it still fails, it might be because Firewall is not open between JMeter and target server hosting your TCP server

JMeter distributed server not sending results back to master server

Issue: Remote Jmeter server is not reporting back the results to the master server.
Description:
Using a VMware server I have added several Ubuntu servers hosting various JMeter client/servers. I have setup a very simple distributed Jmeter environment using one master and one remote slave. I have a very simple test plan that uses FTP to transfer a single file to a third FTP server.
Jmeter Master: 192.168.19.219, Ubuntu 12.04, Java 1.7.0.51, Jmeter 2.11
Jmeter Slave: 192.168.19.201, Ubuntu 12.04, Java 1.7.0.51, Jmeter 2.11
FTP Server 192.168.19.211, Win2008 R2
Upon execution the test plan works correctly and the file gets uploaded and downloaded successfully to and from the FTP server. Whats not working are the results. Using wireshark I determined that no results were being sent back to the master server. I then checked the jmeter-server.log and noticed some errors complaining about java.rmi.ConnectException. Its trying to use 127.0.0.1 which is obviously not the correct address. I read up and found to correct this you must set the param "java.rmi.server.hostname".
So on the slave server I edited the jmeter-server config file to the IP address of the slave server:
RMI_HOST_DEF=-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=192.168.19.201
The jmeter-server.log (attached) shows the java.rmi.server.hostname being picked up so I cannot figure out why further down in the jmeter-server.log its complaining about 127.0.0.1? Where is 127.0.0.1 coming from? Why is RMI not using 192.168.19.201?

I got the same error as well. The fix is as follows.
While starting the client start with the following.
Jmeter Master:
./jmeter-server -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=192.168.19.219
Jmeter Slave:
./jmeter -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=192.168.19.201
Both client and server establishes connection to other. If unspecified the Slave sends local 127.0.1.1 to the Master. Master fails to open a connection to that ip and port, causing the error.

Providing Hostname for both JMeter client and server solved the problem. This is explained on Apache JMeter user manual page but with different intention under Tips section.
You can start JMeter server with option "-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=" on command line and same required for client.

I do not know why this isn't clearly documented but, on the client side you need to allow and/or define the client.rmi.localport
# Parameter that controls the RMI port used by the RemoteSampleListenerImpl
# Default value is 0 which means port is randomly assigned
#client.rmi.localport=0
