Or you can add a thread group and tell JMeter to use that.

The Proxy will record the HTTP traffic as JMeter HTTP samplers - it
essentially generates a test sequence which you can then replay.
You just need to create a Recording Controller somewhere, and the
recorded samples will be put there.

Probably the browser was not actually using the proxy.
Try again, but this time don't start the JMeter proxy server.
If the browser still works, then it is not using the JMeter proxy.

I created a thread group(login).I added http request default and specified
domain and port.
i added http proxy server and i set target controller as thread group.and i
started proxy server.
thats it..i didn't save testplan also.
Coming to browser i configured proxy settings and accessed application.Idid
some transactions like
login to the application
Clicked a module(Masters)
clicked a transaction(Add customer)
enterd dets and submitted.
I closed browser.when i saw test plan, no sampler is added.
What is the problem?
Please send reply ASAP.
Thanks.

Once the test plan has been generated, you can use the Save or Save As
menu options to save it to any file you want. Same as if you create
the test plan manually.
I suggest you read the docs e.g.
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/index.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Proxy_Server
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/jmeter_proxy_step_by_step.pdf
and experiment with some simple scenarios to get a better idea for how it works.

To create a test plan by recording HTTP (not HTTPS) requests made by a browser.
You tell the browser to use a proxy (which happens to be JMeter) so
all the HTTP browser requests get passed to JMeter.

The location of the database is irrelevant (unless the browser talks
directly to it).
> Where can i see requests recorded by http proxy server..?
Where you tell it to put them.
