JMETER not Recording - jmeter

I'm new to jmeter
I'm trying to record asp.net application
While recording logged in to application successfully, after that travelling to next page (which is expected).
In the next page after filling up the form clicking Generate button
the page is getting reloaded instead of travelling to other page.

In Test script recorder switch http implementation to Java and try again.
Ensure you use last jmeter version.

Can scripts imported be run even if the contents of page do not load on Application launch through JMeter?

When I launch my application through JMeter in a browser - contents of the Login page are not displayed.
So I recorded a very basic scenario - just launching the Login page of my application through fiddler and imported it as a jmx file to JMeter. When I run the script, I see that the script fails.
If JMeter is not able to launch the page while recording, will JMeter to able to run a script that is recorded from Blazemeter/Fiddler for the same page?
As per JMeter project main page:
JMeter is not a browser, it works at protocol level. As far as web-services and remote services are concerned, JMeter looks like a browser (or rather, multiple browsers); however JMeter does not perform all the actions supported by browsers. In particular, JMeter does not execute the Javascript found in HTML pages. Nor does it render the HTML pages as a browser does (it's possible to view the response as HTML etc., but the timings are not included in any samples, and only one sample in one thread is ever displayed at a time).
So JMeter will download the DOM and the scripts (as well as images, fonts, styles, sounds, etc.) given you "tell" JMeter to do this via HTTP Request Defaults
however it won't execute the JavaScript.
If your scripts don't generate any network requests - you can just skip it as scripts are executed in browser context so you should not be too interested in the timings. If the scripts are triggering network requests - you should be able to record them using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and add them after the "main" request which gets the content of your login page.
You can put the "main" and the "scripts" request(s) under the Transaction Controller - this way you will also get "cumulative" time of their execution.

Load testing with html pages having Web API calls in buttons(login, registration)

I recorded application. It record login get method page as the only html page. login post method pages not recorded instead it record as one authorization manager and some APIs. How can I load testing using only html pages. Now my record script seems full of APIs instead of .html pages. I asked to my developers. They told "In submit buttons they call APIs related to those pages". Help me to get out of this problem.
You must not record these requests to .js and woff2 as this is not how real browsers behave.
Real browsers execute main request to what you call "html page" followed by concurrent download of "embedded resources", in your case JavaScript and Font files. To make your JMeter test to behave more like a real browser you need to:
Exclude these requests from recording. Click "Add suggested excludes" button in the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
When you finish recording and will be preparing your script for execution add HTTP Request Defaults to your Test Plan, switch to the "Advanced" tab and tick Retrieve All Embedded Resources and Parallel Downloads boxes
This way you will be properly handing JavaScripts, Fonts, images, styles, whatever in your load test.

How to create manual scripts for button click using Jmeter

I tried to write manual scripts in JMETER.
How the parameters to pass for button click from HTTP Request?
While I inspect the button, I am getting.. class, button name.
Normally when you click HTML Button it should trigger submission of HTML Form so inspect the associated form to see the relevant URL, method and parameters.
However I believe that recording your test using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder is much faster and easier way of generating necessary HTTP Request samplers.
You can also consider an alternative way of recording JMeter tests which is capable of exporting recorded scenarios in "SmartJMX" mode performing automatic detection and correlation of dynamic parameters so you will be even just record and replay without taking extra steps manually, check out How to Cut Your JMeter Scripting Time by 80% article for details.

While Record with JMeter in .Net Application, Popup is not displaying

My application is developed in .NET, When i Record with Jmeter, Application is not displaying a popup after click Submit button on the page. it is recording all the other action. But after click a popup window is expecting which is not displaying
Step 1. Login application
Step 2. Input some data and click on Submit
Step 3. A popup should display which is not comming while record
Thanks
JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder is very good, but in some cases it behaves odd.
Consider the following alternative methods of recording a scenario:
Use JMeter Google Chrome Extension - no proxies, no SSL certificates, no extra configuration.
Use Badboy recording functionality - Badboy has an option to export recorded script into a JMeter .jmx file
Use external proxy like Fiddler or Wireshark in combination with online network dumps to JMeter scripts converter

use jmeter to load test a site: the url is different every time while running the script

I try to test a site with Jmeter and I used its HTTP Proxy sever to make the script.
Actually, the process of this script is
1. login
2. click a link to another page and fill in some info and click SUBMIT
3. logout.
The problem is: everytime I run the script, everything is going well before hitting the SUBMIT button. 'cuz after hitting it, 8 random numbers or letters will be added to the url. So, everytime i run the script, the url is different from the first time that made the script.
Is there anyone has run into kind of question?
Couple things to consider:
Are these "random numbers" in the source code, or just the URL as a
parameter? If so, see below.
Are they a JSESSION ID? If so - use a cookie manager.
That should solve the issue.
If they are in the source code, you'll need to use a regular expression to extract the value. You'll want it as a child of Step2, making your structure:
Login
Form Page
--- Regex for Submit button
Submit
