+<ul>
+<li>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop
Controller,
+but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</li>
+
+<li>
+The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active
threads / total number of threads,
+the total number of threads only applies to a locally run test, otherwise it
will show <code>0</code> (see <bugzilla>55510</bugzilla>).
+</li>
+
+<li>
+Note that under some windows systems you may have this WARNING:
+<source>
+java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences
+WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0
+x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(…) returned error code 5.
+</source>
+The fix is to run JMeter as Administrator, it will create the registry key for
you, then you can restart JMeter as a normal user and you won't have the
warning anymore.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+You may encounter the following error:
+<source>java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificates does not conform
to algorithm constraints</source>
+ if you run a HTTPS request on a web site with a SSL certificate (itself or
one of SSL certificates in its chain of trust) with a signature
+ algorithm using MD2 (like <code>md2WithRSAEncryption</code>) or with a SSL
certificate with a size lower than 1024 bits.
+This error is related to increased security in Java 8+.
+<br></br>
+To allow you to perform your HTTPS request, you can downgrade the security of
your Java installation by editing
+the Java <code>jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms</code> property. Remove the MD2
value or the constraint on size, depending on your case.
+<br></br>
+This property is in this file:
+<source>JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security</source>
+See <bugzilla>56357</bugzilla> for details.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+Under Mac OSX Aggregate Graph will show wrong values due to mirroring effect
on numbers.
+This is due to a known Java bug, see Bug <a
href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8065373"; >JDK-8065373</a>
+The fix is to use JDK8_u45 or later.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+View Results Tree may fail to display some HTML code under HTML renderer, see
<bugzilla>54586</bugzilla>.
+This is due to a known Java bug which fails to parse "<code>px</code>" units
in row/col attributes.
+See Bug <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8031109";
>JDK-8031109</a>
+The fix is to use JDK9 b65 or later.

+
+<li>
+JTable selection with keyboard
(<keycombo><keysym>SHIFT</keysym><keysym>up/down</keysym></keycombo>) is
totally unusable with Java 7 on Mac OSX.
+This is due to a known Java bug <a
href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8025126"; >JDK-8025126</a>
