Jmeter 4.0 script recording issue - jmeter

When i'm trying to record application in Jmeter 4.0 using firefox browser not able to capture HTTP requests. I could see below message in
Problem with SSL certificate for url for 'cdnjs.cloudflare.com'? Ensure browser is set to accept the JMeter proxy cert: Software caused connection abort: socket write error
2018-04-20 17:26:36,369 WARN o.a.j.p.h.p.Proxy: [50777] Problem with SSL certificate for url for 'cdnjs.cloudflare.com'? Ensure browser is set to accept the JMeter proxy cert: Software caused connection abort: socket write error
Could you please help us to resolve this issue.

Even I have tried importing jmeter user certificate in browser and recorded the user scenario still complains on keystore generation.Try this if it works

The error is self-explanatory: you need to add JMeter's self-signed certificate to your browser.
Locate ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt file in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation. It is being automatically generated when you start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Import the certificate into your browser, instructions are different for each browser you can use i.e. Importing your SSL certificate into your browser article as a reference.
That's it, you should now be able to record HTTPS traffic.
See Recording HTTPS Traffic with JMeter's Proxy Server for more detailed configuration and troubleshooting instructions.

java.net.SocketException: Software caused connection abort: recv failed **ensure browser is set to accept the JMeter proxy certificate**

I am using Jmeter 5.4.1 with Java 1_8_301 and Firefox 91.0. I have imported the ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA into Firefox browser and this certificate is generated today and valid.
I have set up proxy settings in my Firefox browser. This testing is done on Windows and my web application uses a client certificate which I converted through keytool into PKCS12 format and added the following to the system.properties under Jmeter-Home\bin
My web app is loading fine without proxy but when I try to record getting the below error.
java.net.SocketException: Software caused connection abort: recv failed **ensure browser is set to accept the JMeter proxy certificate**
I am not sure what I am missing here. I have been through all solutions mentioned in this regard and I am exhausted all my options now. I have been successful in recording using BlazeMeter but my company is not allowing me to use the Chrome extension for security reasons.
Note:
Also, I forgot to add that the Jmeter recording working fine before. Started noticing issues after our java
is upgraded from jdk_1.8.291 to jdk_1.8.301. I checked the difference
between the two and both support TLS1.2 which is what our app uses and tried
to downgrade to v291 didn't work either.

It's quite hard to say what's wrong without seeing your jmeter.log file with debug logging enabled for the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.
I can think of 2 options:
Double check the way you're importing the certificate into your browser, i.e. try recording a website with HTTPS without client certificate, i.e. https://example.com. If it fails - you will need to properly install the JMeter's certificate prior to proceeding with your application recording
If it will be successful for other HTTPS website but not for the particular your application most probably you need to import your client certificate into Firefox browser as well
As the last resort you can inspect the requests using Firefox "network" tab and generate relevant HTTP Request samplers manually. There is also BlazeMeter JMX Converter service which can transform HAR files into .JMX scripts but I think the same security restrictions will apply.

java.net.SocketException: Connection reset on JMeter

i am trying to automate the web process and that website only access when i am using VPN so when i try to Record the Website Script using the JMeter Script recoder then i shows error " You connection is not Private for this site " and when i am trying to run the JMeter as a Proxy server by using this command jMeter.bat -H -P -N -u -a then i am getting " java.net.SocketException: Connection reset " Error. So if anyone know how to recode the VPN accessed web application test script in JMeter please help me.
Thanks and Regards
"You connection is not Private for this site" error means that you haven't imported JMeter's certificate into your browser.
When you start JMeter HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder it generates a special certificate file called ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation, the certificate allows JMeter to intercept and decrypt HTTPS traffic so make sure to import the certificate into your browser before opening the page of the application you're testing.
More information:
HTTPS recording and certificates of HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder user manual entry
Recording HTTPS Traffic with JMeter's Proxy Server
if you're still seeing the error - try clearing your browsing history as it might be the case your browser "remembers" valid certificate for the page you're trying to open and detects certificate mismatch when you're opening it via JMeter's proxy.
With regards to VPN I don't think any extra steps are required once you're able to open the application with browser and/or JMeter

how can i install root CA certification in jmeter?

I'm getting the following error trying to install a root CA certificate in Apache JMeter:
What should I do?
This is not an error at all, it's information message regarding JMeter created a self-signed SSL certificate.
Due to security reasons JMeter prints some information regarding the certificate so you could decide whether to accept it or not when you'll open a page over HTTPS protocol in browser.
So when browser prompts you whether to proceed to secure page using untrusted certificate or not - just double check certificate authority and if it matches what JMeter tells in that dialog - you're good to go.

Among resolutions for your issue:
Install in the browser as described in documentation the Fake Certification Authority created by JMeter
Call https URL in the browser and accept certificate, then start recording your scenario
Have you added JMeter's self-signed certificate to browser's exception list?
If so - try removing the certificate and starting over.
For other troubleshooting options and recommendations see Recording HTTPS Traffic with JMeter's Proxy Server guide.
I suggest using SmartMeter Recorder. You will avoid all isues with setting up the proxy. SmartMeter Recorder uses its own Chrome plugin and works out of the box. Read the article for more info.
First of all for performance testing you should have application setup without the certificates otherwise you are testing results will differ. Your objective should be to test actual calls and those should be isolated.
If you still insist doing with certificate then you need to register JMeter certificate with browser which you are using for recording. You can find that in JMeter bin directory. Just register with your browser which you are using fir recording.

Problem with JMeter and HTTP Proxy Server with SSL

We are using JMeter 2.4 and are trying to use the HTTP Proxy Server to capture a test plan.
"Attempt HTTPS spoofing" is not ticked.
The error we get in the JMeter log is:
2010/08/02 14:46:02 ERROR - jmeter.protocol.http.proxy.Proxy: Problem with SSL certificate? Ensure browser is set to accept the JMeter proxy cert:

Any ideas?
You must remove in your browser the auto-signed certificat in relation with your website, and restart a record session with JMeter 2.4. In this new session, accept the JMeter's dummy cert.
(in Firefox : Options > Advanced > Encryption > View Certificates ==> Certificat Manager > Servers > choose website cert and Delete...)

From http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Proxy_Server
When recording HTTPS, the JMeter proxy
server uses a dummy certificate to
enable it to accept the SSL connection
from the browser. This certificate is
not one of the certificates that
browsers normally trust, and will not
be for the correct host, so the
browser should display a dialogue
asking if you want to accept the
certificate or not. For example: 1)
The server's name "www.example.com"
does not match the certificate's name
"JMeter Proxy". Somebody may be trying
to eavesdrop on you. 2) The
certificate for "JMeter Proxy" is
signed by the unknown Certificate
Authority "JMeter Proxy". It is not
possible to verify that this is a
valid certificate. You will need to
accept the certificate in order to
allow the JMeter Proxy to intercept
the SSL traffic in order to record it.
You should only accept the certificate
temporarily.

You may have to create the certificate for Jmeter. Below is a fantastic article detailing how to do it:
