Hi,

Has this been solved. In my case I am traying to extract the value of the 
node <ns2:enterpriseId>takataka</ns2:enterpriseId> from:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
   <soap:Body>
      <ns3:createEnterpriseConfigurationDataResponse 
xmlns:ns2="http://example.com/datatype/configuration" 
xmlns:ns3="http://example.com/configuration">
         <return>
            <ns2:enterpriseId>takataka</ns2:enterpriseId>
         </return>
      </ns3:createEnterpriseConfigurationDataResponse>
   </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

I tried several combinations of xpath queries without success, anybody who 
has an idea?

Regards,

Agusti

Re: Unable to extract using XPath Extractor

Posted by UBIK LOAD PACK Support <su...@ubikloadpack.com>.

Hello,
Have a look at:
http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#XPath_Assertion


As a work-round for namespace limitations of the Xalan XPath parser
implementation on which JMeter is based, you can provide a Properties file
which contains mappings for the namespace prefixes:

   - prefix1=Full Namespace 1
   - prefix2=Full Namespace 2
   - ...

You reference this file in jmeter.properties (or user.properties <= BETTER)
file using the property:

   - xpath.namespace.config

If it doesn't work while it does for assertions, then open a BUGZILLA for
enhancement.
