RE: jmeter ant - varrying threads/loop
1) Try running it directly, without using the Ant Task.
2) What does jmeter.log contain?
I've never used the Ant Task; it's possible that it does not support the -D
and -J flags.
But I do know that properties can be used for passing in loop and thread
counts when running JMeter from the command line.
Properties can be added to jmeter.properties (not ideal, but it would allow
you to test the Ant task).

Re: jmeter ant - varrying threads/loop
Posted by Gary Rogers <ga...@uni.edu>.
I had the same issue. Ultimately what I did was write an Ant replace
task (several actually) that changes tokens made in a master jmx file like:
<replace file="${scriptDir}/${testName}-remote.jmx"
token="@UNI_USERS@" value="${users}" />
Where @UNI_USERS@ is a token I put in the original jmx file (I coppied
it to ${var}/-remote.jmx before the replace) and ${users} is an input
derived property.
I had to do this because I'm running with remote servers and the
property function doesn't pass these values to the remote machines, but
it should work for any number of parameters if you set up the original
with tokens to be replaced.

It does, using the <jvmarg> and <property> subelements. But...I don't
believe the version with support for those elements is included with the
JMeter distribution yet. You may need to just get the latest from
http://www.programmerplanet.org/ant-jmeter/ for now.
If there is a problem with these subelements, let me know.
> 1) Try running it directly, without using the Ant Task.
Absolutely. The ant task does nothing more than execute the command line
anyway. To see the details of the command line the task is executing, run
ant with the -v option.
