On my JMeter script I am using the HTTP Authorization Manager, I observed that JMeter sends requests without Auth-Header and than retry with Auth-Header and successful. Is any settings to avoid this. Please let me know.
Jmeter sends Request1 with out Auth-Header - tcpdump shows 401 but not on Jmeter logs
Jmeter sends Request1 with Auth-Header - tcpdump and Jmeter logs shows 200 OK
My expectation is that if you upgrade to JMeter 3.2 you should not see this issue anymore as according to the HTTP Authorization Manager documentation:
The HttpComponents (HC 4.5.X) implementation defaults to pre-emptive since 3.2 and the header will be shown
If for some reason you are not in position to upgrade to JMeter 3.2 or later (although it is highly recommended to use the most recent JMeter version) you can add the next line to user.properties file
httpclient4.auth.preemptive=true
See Preemptive Authentication stanza for more details.
Make sure you set "Implementation" of your HTTP Request sampler(s) to HttpClient4, the best way to set it is using HTTP Request Defaults and restart JMeter to pick the property up. Once done JMeter should send credentials even if it didn't receive unauthorized response. See Configuring JMeter chapter for more information.

I have running the JMeter for performance testing,
For GET request the parameters are not appending properly
Get Request
Request's response
I don't know what i am missing.
I don't think it's a good idea to have protocol, host and port in "Path" field of the HTTP Request sampler, you should use the relevant inputs for this.
Moreover, having the full URL in the "Path" section might cause malfunction of i.e. HTTP Cookie Manager, HTTP Cache Manager, etc.
If you're uncertain about how to properly build the HTTP Request you can just record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder or JMeter Chrome Extension.
I have an API that is running in GET method. It works fine in postman with 200 status code. But when I try to run the API in jmeter it throws 403 forbidden error. I have configured the debug sampler and tried to re-run the test. The debug sampler passed with 200 but http request still fails.
I have tried to correlate but even that fails.
I removed the port number from the HTTP request, it still fails.
I have added the authorization manager and enter the username and password still fails.
HTTP cookie manager and cache manager added in the script.
As per HTTP Status Code 403 description
The HTTP 403 Forbidden client error status response code indicates that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it.
This status is similar to 401, but in this case, re-authenticating will make no difference. The access is permanently forbidden and tied to the application logic, such as insufficient rights to a resource.
Most probably you have inconsistencies between requests originated from Postman and from JMeter.
There are 2 possible causes:
You failed to configure JMeter's HTTP Request sampler properly. Given your request works fine in Postman you can try to record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Prepare JMeter for recording. The easiest way is going for JMeter Templates Feature
From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create"
Open HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Prepare Postman for recording.
On Settings page set proxy host to 127.0.0.1 and port to 8888
Execute the request in Postman
JMeter will capture the request and store it under the Recording Controller
Postman uses specific Authorization header which cannot be recorded and replayed. Look into Authorization tab for the request and check which one is used, once you figure out - implement the same in JMeter:
Status Code 403 means you are not authorized to access it, so Ensure you are using the right Authorization for your GET call.
Add cookie manager in jmeter http sampler.
Performing a login and update user test with multiple users.
I have created a CSV file with 200 username and passwords. Running 200 threads
Performing login and update user, with 200 users.
I am extracting the value of csrf token in a variable after the login request. Then, I am passing that csrf variable in the user update, post request.
Running the same request with 100 users, I am able to log in and update the user's details.
Running the same request with 200 users.
getting the connection timeout exception.
Some of the update user post requests are getting failed because csrf variable is extracting the default values of CSS/JQuery extractor. CSRF token actual value is not getting extracted to the variable.
I have also added Authorization, Cookie, Cache and Header Manager in my test plan.
The constant timer is also being used after login request.
I have set the value of timeouts to 120000 in the HTTP request defaults. Even if I am increasing the timeouts, getting the same exception.
Most probably your application under test simply gets overloaded therefore it cannot respond in a timely fashion.
With regards to CSS/JQuery extractor which is failing to get CSRF token - my expectation is that the token is not present in the response for failing samplers.
So I would recommend taking the following troubleshooting steps:
Completely remove Connect and Response timeouts in the HTTP Request Defaults so JMeter will wait for response forever.
Configure JMeter to save responses for failed samplers by adding the next 2 lines to user.properties file:
jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml
jmeter.save.saveservice.response_data.on_error=true
this way you will be able to see how does response look like for failing requests. See Results File Configuration User Manual chapter to learn what other metrics could be useful for your analysis.
Check your application and middleware (web/application/database server/load balancer logs)
Make sure to set up monitoring of baseline OS health metrics on the application under test side. You can do this using JMeter PerfMon Plugin
Just in case double check you're following JMeter Best Practices
I am new to jmeter. I have setup up HTTP Request sampler to send GET request to google.com. The response I get is 200. But I could not find the response header where it shows the cookies in the response. I want to use that cookie value for my next request.
You need to look into View Results Tree listener, Set-Cookie header will present in "Sampler Result" tab:
HTTP Cookie Manager should handle cookies automatically. Just in case if you need cookies to be store as JMeter Variables you can set the following property:
CookieManager.save.cookies=true
which can be done in 2 ways:
Pass it to JMeter startup script via -J command line argument as:
jmeter -JCookieManager.save.cookies=true
Add aforementioned CookieManager.save.cookies=true line to user.properties file (located in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation) to make the change permanent. Remember, JMeter restart is required to pick the property up.
This way you will be able to access i.e. NID cookie value as ${COOKIE_NID} where required
See Using the HTTP Cookie Manager in JMeter guide for more information on using HTTP Cookie manager
To handle the cookies automatically, Add HTTP Cookie Manager to the test plan by navigating to Test plan -> Add -> Config Element -> HTTP Cookie Manager.
And don’t test the applications which you don't own or have permission to test.
I was trying to test webservice on jmeter and I am using WebService(SOAP)
Request (DEPRECIATED) in Thread Group>add>sampler>WebService(SOAP)
Request (DEPRECIATED) and getting this error. I already use the WSDL URL in browser and it recognized, but why in jmeter wasn't? I am using Apache JMeter (2.9 r1437961)
Upgrade your JMeter to the latest version (2.13 as for now), it's available from the Downloads page
Don't use WebService(SOAP) Request, switch to SOAP/XML-RPC Request instead. You can even use HTTP Request sampler, but if you need to send SOAPAction - you'll need to add HTTP Header Manager to send headers like SOAPAction and Content-Type
Response code 401 means "Unauthorized", it looks like your web service needs some credentials. Add HTTP Authorization Manager to your test plan and supply credentials there.
