JMeter - list of installed plugins - jmeter

I am using JMeter 5.2, only via Command Line Mode.
For debugging purposes I need to get a list of all currently installed plugins for the JMeter version.
How I could achieve that?

You can use plugin manager using CLI:
command-line is simple:
PluginsManagerCMD <command> [<params>]
In your case execute status
PluginsManagerCMD status

JMeter 5.3 doesn't respond after a click File->Open File on MacOS Monterey 12.5.1

For a few days I cannot open any JMX file in JMeter script. Even after click File->Recently Opened, JMeter opens this file but non of click action on this file doesn't work. I am using JMeter version 5.3.
What I've done:
tried to used another JMeter version (5.5)
unistalled and installed newest JDK version (17.0.4.1)
upgraded all MacOS upgraded
scanned my MACOS in order to find a viruses
opened another applications based on Java and try to open the file (f.e. Intelij)
Increased Heap from 256M to 512M
Killed all denudant processes
Opened the java logs
All these actions were unsuccessful. Slowly my ideas are ran-down. Any idea from you what else can I check?
Best regards.
I cannot reproduce your issue:
so most probably something is wrong with your Java/JMeter/OS/user/whatever.
You can try following troubleshooting steps:
Increase JMeter's logging verbosity to maximum and see whether there are any suspicious entries in jmeter.log file
Check your OS logs using Console application
Try switching to another Look and Feel via Options -> Look and Feel. If this doesn't work as well you can do it using command line i.e.
./jmeter.sh -Jjmeter.laf=CrossPlatform
Try running JMeter and providing the path to the .jmx script via -t command-line argument like:
./jmeter -t /path/to/test.jmx

Execute a file using OS sampler in JMeter on a RHEL 8 Machine

Have a .net core library Linux compatible on a Linux machine. I can execute it locally from terminal and getting the expected result. But while executing from JMeter using a OS sampler it is failing.
From Terminal: Running Fine
JMeter Settings:
Fetching the Response Body: (which should be 352 for example from the above terminal)
JMeter it is failing:
Check the file location and permission, everything is in place. What I have missed here any help ?
After change:
I changed as suggested and still facing the issue,
Error details,
I think you need to invoke a shell instead of trying to execute your command directly, something like:
Also if you open the OS Process Sampler in the View Results Tree listener you will see the output or in case of failure the failure reason

I guess you misinterpret both Dimtri and User729 comment, you need to add both places and it should work.

JMETER_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly but build is successful and the script works fine in Jmeter GUI and cmd prompt

I have created a jmeter jmx script and it is getting executed perfectly in GUI and non GUI mode. I have configured the same in Jenkins but I am getting the build success with an error message as "The JMETER_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program"
I have also tried setting the JMETER_HOME as E:\apache-jmeter-4.0 in User variables and Path as E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin in System Variables and it didn't work.
I tried the below Questions but no luck.
'jmeter' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
JMETER_HOME environment variable is not defined
Here is my command and error from jenkins
E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin\jmeter -jjmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml -n -t E:\JMeter Tutorial\JenkinsIntegration.jmx -l E:\JMeter Tutorial\JenkinsIntegrationResult.jtl
The easiest way of setting an environment variable is defining it under Manage Jenkins - Configure System - Global properties:
The better way would be using Environment Injector plugin
And last but not the least, you're getting this message because you're sitting at outdated JMeter 4.0, if you upgrade to i.e. JMeter 5.2.1 you won't be seeing this warning, moreover according to 9 Easy Solutions for a JMeter Load Test “Out of Memory” Failure article you should always be using the latest version of JMeter so in any case upgrade does make sense, check out what is the latest stable JMeter version and switch to it
I removed Jenkins and reinstalled as well as i deleted the old job and created a new job with default settings in jenkins (i dint do anything in the manage Jenkins) and it worked charm with both jmerer 4.0 and 5.3. java 1.8.0_251
with 5.3
with 4.0
as far i remember i just removed the space and added underscore in the below command from folder name JMeter Tutorial to Jmeter_Tutorial
E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin>E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin\jmeter.bat -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml -n -t E:\JMeter_Tutorial\JenkinsIntegration.jmx -l E:\JMeter_Tutorial\JenkinsIntegrationResult.csv

Jmeter test status on non-gui mode

How can i get jmeter test status in non-gui mode.
Jenkins install jmeter helm chart on kuberntes and start the test as part of the installation, meaning that after the chart installed a script entry point will run automatically inside the container, jenkins is only trigger the chart. i want to know when the test is finished and get back the status to jenkins from the pod to publish the report test result on jenkins.
When JMeter's non-gui test execution is finished it returns a normal exit code which can be obtained:
%errorlevel% environment variable in Windows
$? environment variable in Unix and derivatives
Not knowing the details of how you launch JMeter it is quite hard to come up with exact Jenkins configuration but I'm pretty much sure that you can utilize the aforementioned variables to get the JMeter execution status
if you are triggering jmeter scripts via jenkins , you can have a post build operation after script execution using jenkins.
I am using powershell in jenkins to run jmeter in non gui mode, once test is done doing other post build operations.

Jmeter GUI testplan jmx VS Jmeter Command line testplan jmx

What are the differences between GUI and Non_GUI JMX files ?
Why I am getting these errors ?
Can I just take a JMX file created by Jmeter
GUI and use it on command line Jmeter ?
I tried jmeter on my windows box, works !! Now I want to run this on some remote server ( LINUX ) which does not have GUI, I tried using command line jmeter
Command : ./jmeter.sh -n -t loop.jmx -l log.jtl
following is taken from jmeter.log
2015/03/04 14:21:53 INFO - jmeter.engine.StandardJMeterEngine: Running the test!

I was able to resolve this issue after looking at this question
Causes of getting a java.lang.VerifyError
I also realized that, I can create JMX on GUI jmeter and use it over Commandline jmeter
.jmx files for GUI and non-GUI aren't different, JMeter .jmx files are basically XML files. Moreover, non-GUI way is the recommended option of running a JMeter test.
So use the following checklist:
Use the latest JMeter version (2.12 as for now)
Use the latest Java version. JMeter 2.12 is compatible with Java 8. It is recommended to use Java SDK from Oracle and if your operating system allows choose 64-bit version.
Make sure that JVM options are identical
You can check your JVM version and vendor by executing java --version command.
