I am trying to upload tar.gz files into google cloud bucket using jmeter. Here i am using File management service, GCS & Jmeter.
Execution flow.
1. Using get Request i am hitting FMS.In response I'll get response message. this response contains the URL to upload the file to GCS.
2. Now the file SJ311.tar.gz file is uploaded in the folder iviu/SJ311 folder in GCS.
3. In GCS cloud function is written a code which will extract the .gz file & all .csv files should be extracted successfully.
Issue : through POSTMAN i am able to do this i.e. file is uploaded & it is decompressing the tar file but using jmeter file is uploaded successfully but its not extracting/decompressing.
If you're able to send the request using Postman and see that JMeter behaves differently than it means that you're not sending the same request using JMeter.
Most probably this is due to missing or incorrectly defined HTTP Header so make sure to compare each and every detail of the request and given you send the same requests you should get the same behaviour/response.
Going forward if something is working in Postman and not working in JMeter you can just record the relevant request using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, just configure Postman to use JMeter as the proxy and run your request, JMeter will capture it and properly build the HTTP Request sampler, add HTTP Header Manager, etc.
Just remember to copy the file(s) you will be uploading to the "bin" folder of your JMeter installation prior to recording, otherwise JMeter will not be able to capture the request.
Solution to the above question is, under File upload section-> under Parameter name field i added DOM attribute or webelement value for the "upload file" button which is present in Google cloud storage screen.
Now after removing that parameter value, file is getting uploaded successfully.
If we add the attribute value, file will get uploaded successfully but it will be corrupted.

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.

Context: Trying to upload a file to a web application
Let's assume I'm only using the basic options:
HTTP Request Sampler:
Method: Post
Protocol: http
Path: /api/file/upload
Follow Redirects: checked
Use Keep-Alive: checked
Use multipart/form-data: checked
Files Upload:
File Path: C:\Users\etc...etc
Parameter Name: file
MIME: image/jpeg
Cookies are set with Cookie Manager, Login is also set.
Uploading small files (130KB) works fine like this, Bigger files throw an error 500: "Cannot delete temporary file chunk."
On-website upload works fine and uses resumable.js (which is also the one throwing this error I assume)
I am assuming this is due to chunking, since that's basically the only major difference between what I have tried. Does anyone have any insight on this?
Edit: Using the image photoGood that is "chunked"/split in 2 blocks I can also form POSTs with these parameters:
resumableIdentifier 20702285-photoGoodjpg
resumableFilename photoGood.jpg
resumableType image/jpeg
resumableRelativePath photoGood.jpg
resumableChunkSize 1048576
resumableChunkNumber 1
resumableTotalChunks 2
resumableTotalSize 1859876
resumableChunkSize 887520
However, only the ChunkNumber 1 will be used, as in, the chunks are not joined together on the server.
I think your request is missing some mandatory parameters like:
resumableChunkNumber
resumableChunkSize
resumableTotalSize
resumableIdentifier
resumableFilename
resumableRelativePath
etc.

If you're able to successfully perform upload using browser you should be able to record the associated request(s) using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, just make sure to copy your PDF file to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation before uploading the file and JMeter will generate the relevant HTTP Request sampler(s) under the Recording Controller.
Check out Recording File Uploads with JMeter article for more details.
It would also be good to capture the traffic from JMeter and the real browser using a 3rd-party sniffer tool like Fiddler or Wireshark, this way you will be able to identify the differences. Once you configure JMeter to send the same requests as the real browser - the whole transaction will be successful.
i have recorded uploading and downloading file scenario in my work, am able to login and downloading file successfully but am facing the issue with uploading a file(Jmeter) also am able to uploading Folder but am not able to upload file into the application, while recording time it self am unable to upload PDF and Word document only text document uploading but it is uploading manually. can you please help me on this.
Thanks!
You need to copy the file, you're uploading into JMeter's "bin" folder, this way HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder will be able to capture the call and convert it into the relevant HTTP Request sampler. See Recording File Uploads with JMeter for more details.
If you're building the request manually consider the following points:
Either use full path to file, you're uploading, or copy it to JMeter's "bin" folder
Don't forget to tick Use multipart/form-data for HTTP POST box
Make sure you provide correct Parameter name and MIME Type
Test 'download a file using Jmeter': On the web page, there is a button 'download' and clicking it downloads the file with .zip extension. When observed under Network tab of Developer tool (F12)>there are two requests: 1 is the application request which gives the response with link (aws-S3...) (if i copy paste this link, can download the zip file) and 2nd request shows the aws-S3..link. When need to perform this download performance testing with 100 users, how to configure in Jmeter. Please guide. below thing have been tried:
Record a script>it records the first request (not the 2nd request of network tab as mentioned above)
When run the script> this shows 200 code with response message as aws-S3..link
Tried Save response to file listener> nothing has been downloaded.
Extract the download link from 1st response using i.e. Regular Expression Extractor
Add put the JMeter Variable generated by the Regular Expression Extractor into "Path" input of the HTTP Request 2
Add Save Responses to a file listener as a child of the HTTP Request 2
See Performance Testing: Upload and Download Scenarios with Apache JMeter article for more information on simulating file upload/download events in JMeter web tests.
I am working on upload file module that works on internet explorer only and it requires following browser setting mandatory:
"Include local directory path when uploading files to server" should be enabled.
A failure message "Unable to upload file" displays when we do not make required setting in browser while manual attempt else it works fine.
Now when I am trying to record the scenario in JMeter, getting same error message even I made required browser settings.
Note: Additionally, I tried to include these calls by copying from browser tools and paste it in JMeter transaction but get the same result in response.
Have any one experience the same or can help me out?
Thanks,
Nitin
Few things to consider:
Make sure that you use Java implementation of HTTP Request
Make sure that "Use multipart/form-data for POST" is checked
Make sure that you provide a file within "Send Files With the Request" field providing correct path, parameter name and mime-type
If all above has already been applied and you still experience problems I would recommend to capture the data being sent by Internet Explorer with a sniffer (Fiddler, Wireshark, etc.) and compare it to data, being sent by JMeter. They must be the same. If they aren't - you'll need to customize it using HTTP Header Manager, HTTP Cookie Manager, etc. If JMeter is not flexible enough to set all the required parameters via GUI, i.e. still tries to send full path of file instead of just filename or vice versa, you can always go deeper and manually build multi-part post request via Java Request Sampler (see SleepTest and JavaTest source code for details) or via Beanshell which is 100% compatible with Java syntax but may be harder to debug due to it's script nature.
Path to SleepTest and JavaTest files is follows:
/src/protocol/java/org/apache/jmeter/protocol/java/test/JavaTest.java
/src/protocol/java/org/apache/jmeter/protocol/java/test/SleepTest.java
JMeter sources are available from JMeter download page
Steps to upload the image using jmeter:
locate the image in bin folder Select Post method and check the "Use
multipart/form-data for POST" in HTTP Request
Provide details of Send files With the Request in HTTP Request
Record the Upload scenario and stop button in Jmeter (Image wouldn't upload while recording in Jmeter)
Now before running the script, Go to upload response and give the full path of image in "Send files with request field"
Now Run the script. You can able to see the image
