Hello,

Please prefer sending error messages as text (e.g. copy-paste from
terminal), as it makes the errors searchable.
For instance, https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@jmeter.apache.org is
not able to search for text in images.

What you see are flaky tests.
There are tests that use real-life servers in order to verify JMeter's
ability to work with modern systems.
In other words, some of the tests attempt to access apache.org to verify if
HTTP sampler is still able to talk
to the modern HTTPS, and so on.

It turns out, the responses are not 100% reliable, and sometimes DNS fails
to resolve the host, sometimes
the server responds with a slightly different error and so on.

I have seen the errors you mention, and the errors are transient. They
appear and disappear at random.
If you like, you can analyze the nature of the failure and try to make the
tests more reliable,
however, the key nature of the tests is they use true systems that have
inherent failures.

In other words, we could rework the tests to use Docker-based HTTP servers,
however, that would kill
the idea. Then we would keep testing JMeter with a canned version of some
HTTP server, and we would
never know the sampler no longer works with the modern web.
