I have recorded login script using jmeter and when I run it the user is not logged in. There is no session parameter to pass.
Below is application which used for my study.

Looking into the network dump
I believe all you need to do in order to mimic the login is just to add HTTP Cookie Manager to your Test Plan
What error you are getting while running your script? If you are not able to logon, add the cookie manager (Test Plan -> Add -> Config Element -> HTTP Cookie Manager) under your test plan.
If it doesnt work, check any other parameter values getting changed in your home page and login requests. If yes, parameterize that too and then try. It will work

JMeter version 5.x and 4.0
Protocol : Https
Steps
Start creating a test plan with a recording template
Configure the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder with HTTPS domain, target controller
Save the test plan and start the proxy server
Configure Firefox with security certificate and proxy details
Access the login page https://www.systemname.com . Request is recorded
Login to the system with valid credentials. Request is recorded successfully
Add a Boundary value Extractor post processor to extract session variable (LCSRF_VAL) and replace the session value recorded in the login request with ${LCSRF_VAL}
Save the test plan and run the test
Check the responses in View Result Tree --> HTML view
Actual Outcome
User is not logged into the system. Login page is returned.
Expected Outcome
User should be able to login when sessions are handled
Note :
It worked fine if recording started from a URL of a page inside the system. For example
https://www.system.com/en/administration/Search?nav=Administration
Recorded user authentication for one user then run script in Jmeter and successfully logged-in. Now change user id and password for another user but displaying previous user information not changed user information
Check out if there are any headers being sent via HTTP Header Manager. It might be the case your application under test identifies user via header
Check if recorded URLs contain dynamic postfix which can act as user session identifier
If there is a HTTP Authorization Manager in your Test Plan - update username and password there
Consider adding HTTP Cookie Manager to our Test Plan - it should be sufficient to automatically handle user sessions
Generic troubleshooting step: capture the requests sent by JMeter and the real browser using a sniffer tool like Wireshark or Fiddler and compare them. Amend JMeter configuration to eliminate differences.
I'm working on a stress/test project for a application that uses ADF 11g.
I've recorded the log in process with Jmeter test script recorder.
My steps were:
Open up the site
Type in Username and Password
Click login
I have extractors and Cookie Manager set up correctly and replaced all the afrLoops, JsessionID, javax.faces.ViewState...etc
When I run the thread in Jmeter, the Login step respond always shows that it times up caused by inactivity.
So I looked deeper into it.
I used chrome's inspect element feature and check out the JSESSIONID while performing the steps live.
I saw that the JSESSIONID at the login page and the JSESSIONID after login are different.
but in my Jmeter test the JSESSIONID stays the same before and after login.
Does anyone know what is going wrong?
Thanks.
You need a different JSESSIONID after logon - is normal.
please have a look at this blog: http://soadev.blogspot.ro/2014/04/jmeter-load-test-oracle-adf-applications.html
I am also testing a website having two JSESSION Ids before and after login. Jmeter cookie manager stores only the latest JSESSION id. If you try to check in Chrome's Inspect element, you will find that after login your cookie value get changed and that's what Jmeter Cookie manager is storing. Therefore, when you check cookie value in debug sampler, you will get only one JSESSION id
How to Configure Jmeter for after Login process in an Application?
I am able to configure the login request for 100 users from the CSV file with the help of Jmeter's "CSV Data set Config", but after the successful login of all I want to know how to configure the jmeter to go to the "Offers" page of there(100 user) accounts.Means 1 User can login & View his/her "Offer" page.Please Help.
There are two ways to achieve this scenario:
add another HTTP sampler & fill the details like Server IP, Path of Offers URL (you will have already done the same for Login), HTTP Header data etc. and pass correlation parameters from the response of Login if required to view the offers specific to 1 user.
make sure you use right method (GET/POST) in HTTP Sampler.
record the whole scenario (ref: http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/jmeter_proxy_step_by_step.pdf).
You will still have to do the correlation of parameters (using regular expression extractor or Xpath extractor) wherever required. This entirely depends on the parameters required for the offer page HTTP request.
hope this will help.
You'll need a cookie manager to store the session and cookie for all logged in users.

I wish to use JMeter to login to my site, run some reports and log out again as a load test.
Is JMeter the best tool for this? I'm concerned it doesn't maintain the browser session between requests.
You can do this very easily in JMeter. You need to create a HTTP Request Sampler (action type needs to be post), then add all the form fields as parameters (username, password etc) and have the path set to the form target. You'll also need to ensure that you have a HTTP cookie manager set to stay logged in. It's even possible to log in as different users, I wrote a blog on it here for full details on how to load test with multiple user logins in JMeter.
Yes you can use jmeter for this. It supports maintaining session across requests and the scenario you want to test is pretty common one.
