Mike -
Thanks for the quick response. I downloaded the nightly build from
2001-08-28, and now I'm having different problems. It looks like a fair
amount has changed since the base 1.6.1 and the current nightly builds, so
maybe I'm just doing something wrong.
Under the 1.6.1 revision, the "simple" way to sample multiple URLs was to
create a "Web Testing" item, and then append multiple "URL Config" children
to it. This worked fine.
Under the current build, the "Web Testing" item no longer allows you to add
"URL Config" children - the "Add" menu shows "Cookie Manager", "Header
Manager", "Http Authorization", and a disabled "Assertions". If I put the
url info directly in the Web Testing item, it will sample that URL, but
this obviously only works for one URL. In the code that creates the menu
for the Web Testing item, I tried adding "addableList.add(new
UrlConfig().getClassLabel());". This creates the menu item and allows you
to add URL Config children, but they do not sample properly.
I also tried adding an instance of "Simple Controller" to my test plan,
instead of "Web Testing". The "Simple Controller" item allows you to add
URL Config children to it, but it does not seem to sample them when you run
the test (I suspect because the "Simple Controller" is a Logic Controller
and not a Generative Controller).
Is this broken, or am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks - Jonathan

Subject: RE: Problem with InterleaveController?
Yes, the Interleave controller in 1.6.1 is broken in this way. You can
download the nightly tar and it should be fixed there. You'll have to do a
build after downloading to generate a new ApacheJMeter.jar file.
