[SOLVED] Re: Attempting to view response data in view results tree fails

[Warren Post <wa...@spideroak-inc.com>]

You put me on the right track and the problem is solved; thank you!


Specifically and per the link you provided, I uninstalled the Brew version and manually installed the tgz direct from jmeter.apache.org. All works as expected.


I'm not sure of the cause but I do notice that the Brew version came with a lot of plugins installed out of the box, attempting to deactivate any generated an error message on stdout, and upon relaunching the Brew version the supposedly deactivated plugins were active again. Now that I am on the working official version I will only install plugins on an as-needed basis.


I thought I had searched carefully before requesting help here, but my search should have turned up the link you provided. And in any case it should have occured to me to have first replaced the Brew version with the official version.


Thanks again for your help,
