Jmeter recording error 401 - jmeter

I try to record my test with jmeter. So I configure my JMeter Script Recorder to use the port 8080. In my browser, i set the proxy to localhost 8080.
I my system.properties file, I set the proxy of my firm.
When I start the recorder and try to go on my site, I've the following error "Connexion reset". When I try to go on google I've the following error "content encoding error".
Do you have any Idea ?

HTTP Error 401 stands for Unauthorized so my expectation is that your corporate proxy required valid credentials. As per Using JMeter behind a proxy article you can pass username and password via -u and -a command-line arguments correspondingly.
-H [proxy server hostname or ip address]
-P [proxy server port]
-N [nonproxy hosts] (e.g. *.apache.org|localhost)
-u [username for proxy authentication - if required]
-a [password for proxy authentication - if required]
So you need to start JMeter like:
jmeter -H your_corporate_proxy_host -P your_corporate_proxy_port -u username -a password
Alternative option is using JMeter Chrome Extension, in this case you won't need to worry about setting up proxies and SSL certificates.

Can't connect to internet via SOCKS5 proxy server

I have configured SOCKS5 proxy server in AWS with dante and it runs fine.
when I try the following command in CMD
curl -L -x socks5://user:password#23.29.xx.xx:1313 http://www.google.com/
it works,
But when I configure my LAN proxy configs, it can't access to the internet via any browser.
for CURL proxy server works but for browsers it doesn't.
please help.
The reason for this is, I have enabled the user authentication in the server. Unlikely in HTTP proxy servers, there is no signin popup in socks5. This was fixed after I added the username and password.

record https traffic for proxy based web applications in jmeter

I have a web application which is hosted to a proxy server.I need to record some scripts of this web application using Jmeter.
When i set browser proxy to Jmeter localhost:8888 i am unable to access my web application which is hosted on some other proxy server.
I need to set up both proxies at same time in my browser and do recording.
Please help.
If you need to use the proxy in order to access your application you need to let JMeter know your proxy server details. As per Using JMeter behind a proxy user manual entry:
To do so, run the jmeter[.bat] file from a command line with the following parameters:
-H [proxy server hostname or ip address]
-P [proxy server port]
-N [nonproxy hosts] (e.g. *.apache.org|localhost)
-u [username for proxy authentication - if required]
-a [password for proxy authentication - if required]
jmeter -H my.proxy.server -P 8000 -u username -a password
In order to be able to record HTTPS traffic you will need to install JMeter's self-signed certificate into your browser. The relevant file is ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt and it's being generated in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation when you start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder. See HTTPS recording and certificates chapter of the above manual entry for more details and Recording HTTPS Traffic with JMeter's Proxy Server for more details.

jmeter getting Unable to tunnel through proxy. Proxy returns "HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy Authentication Required

While configuring HTTP request and putting parameters in proxy server GUI, I added the name and pass of the proxy to the HTTP authorization manager.
But I am still getting error
Unable to tunnel through proxy. Proxy returns "HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy Authentication Required.
HTTP Authorization Manager is a different beast, it won't work for proxy authentication.
You need to provide proxy credentials along with hostname and port, in order to apply the setting to all HTTP Request samplers use one of the following approaches:
Pass proxy host, port and credentials via command line arguments like:
jmeter -H proxy_host -P proxy_port -U username -a password ....
Configure proxy parameters using HTTP Request Defaults like:

JMeter Recording: 401 Unauthorized response after changed HTTP proxy to localhost

I just start learning JMeter. I'm trying to use JMeter to record my company websites, .NET web application.
My issue is that: For security, to access the websites, we have to config "Manual proxy configuration" to 10.x.x.x:3128. However, to record in JMeter I have to change the config to localhost, port 3128.
After I changed the config to localhost, I click Start button of HTTP Test Script Recorder then I click on any link, the Authorization dialog displays and I keep getting 401 unauthorized error although I enter correct username/password.
I tried to use HTTP Authorization Manager, HTTP Request Defaults or HTTP Request but they do not work.
Could anyone help me out?
If your company uses proxy for Internet access you can "tell" JMeter to use this proxy as well. So you need to perform the following configuration:
Configure JMeter to use your proxy to access Internet via following command-line arguments (as per documentation):
If you are testing from behind a firewall/proxy server, you may need to provide JMeter with the firewall/proxy server hostname and port number. To do so, run the jmeter[.bat] file from a command line with the following parameters:
-H [proxy server hostname or ip address]
-P [proxy server port]
-N [nonproxy hosts] (e.g. *.apache.org|localhost)
-u [username for proxy authentication - if required]
-a [password for proxy authentication - if required]
Example : jmeter -H my.proxy.server -P 8000 -u username -a password -N localhost
Add HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder with default port of 8080 (or any other)
Configure your browser to use JMeter host and port 8080 for accessing Internet. If there is No proxy for localhost, 127.0.0.1 stanza somewhere in browser's proxy configuration - untick or remove it in case of running browser and JMeter on the same machine. "Classic" Firefox configuration should look something like:
It may be easier to use JMeter Chrome Extension, in that case you don't need to worry about proxy settings, SSL certificates and associated configuration, cookies, etc.

How to set proxy for JMeter from behind another proxy?

I'm new to jmeter.
I'm trying to test a web app using proxy server.
I have gone through the jmeter docs and got the settings but I'm currently working under company proxy.
So how can I set the proxy server for jmeter from behind the current proxy?
Read :
https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/get-started.html#proxy_server
If you are testing from behind a firewall/proxy server, you may need to provide JMeter with the firewall/proxy server hostname and port number.
To do so, run the jmeter.bat/jmeter file from a command line with the following parameters:
- '-H' [proxy server hostname or ip address]
- '-P' [proxy server port]
- '-N' [nonproxy hosts] (e.g. *.apache.org|localhost)
- '-u' [username for proxy authentication - if required]
- '-a' [password for proxy authentication - if required]
Example :
jmeter -H my.proxy.server -P 8000 -u username -a password -N localhost
Alternatively, you can use --proxyHost, --proxyPort, --username, and --password

UI Mode
Create Thread Group --> HTTP Request
Go to Advanced fill "Server Name or IP:" = 127.0.0.1 , "Port Number:" = 8888
Non UI MODE
Add to your command -H 127.0.0.1 for Proxy Host
-P 8888 for Proxy port
Example:
C:\jmeter5.0\bin>jmeter -n -t C:\example.jmx -l C:\scriptresults.jtl -H 127.0.0.1 -P 8888
