http 500 still causing problems

I am still having a problem with error code http 500. I was getting the
error when I was only running 1.4.1, but the applets imbedded in the system
didn't work right. The application works perfectly when I run it with jdk
1.3.1_8, but of course jmeter doesn't work very well at all with that
version. I have jmeter set to run with 1.4.1_6 while the browser stays set
to 1.3.1. All that seems fine except certain pages simply give me a
nondescriptive error, and one page shows http 500 consistently. I was unable
to run jmeter on 1.3.1, I don't have the patience.

 

When jmeter runs a test script is it running the system through the version
I have jmeter set to, or is it running it through the version I have the
browser set to? If it is running through the version I have jmeter set to,
do you believe it is possible that the application would produce the Http
500 response because it is dealing with the wrong version of the jdk? If
that is true than I've been running the tests on the wrong version. Someone
please help.

Yes, that's exactly what I meant: changing it to take into account those 
variables that change on each run or each sample.

Yes I'm using the proxy recorder sorry I wasn't clear. Can you explain "tune
it". I understand that the recording I'm taking is that only that moment and
a cookie manager is needed to create and maintain a new session and some
variables have to be changed with each running. Is that what you mean by
tuning the test recording.

JMeter test scripts don't execute applets as such (unless you've created 
some new component which does). At most (if you've configured them to) 
they will download the applet code.

So the answer is you're using 1.4.1 when you run the test.

That is highly unlikely. There's probably some other issue -- most often 
it's a request that you should tune because it contains dynamic 
elements,... but who knows: it can be anything. Usually, only someone 
familiar with the application can tell.

Note that for dynamic sites the proxy recorder (I'm assuming that's what 
you've been using, though it's not clear from your message) will only 
create a "1st draft" of your test plan: you'll most likely need to tune 
it to cope well with your site's dynamisms.

Re: http 500 still causing problems

Posted by Sebastian Bazley <se...@london.sema.slb.com>.
I made a change to JMeter recently, which should be in the CVS builds by
now.

JMeter now displays the first  few lines of the response data in jmeter.log
when an error occurs. This can be useful in tracking down the cause of 500
error codes, as the server may send additional information with the error.
