The Proxy and HTTP Sampler components are currently capable only of handling requests in application/x-www-urlencoded and multipart/form-data formats. (And the later still has limitations in that it can transfer one single file parameter). Their behaviour in handling anything else is undefined.

The SOAP/XML sampler is a sampler by itself. You should create one such component INSTEAD of the failing HTTP Sampler.

So I got the JMeter proxy to work in order to record test scripts - very nice - but when it arrives at a POST with xml data, it seems to need to resolve the xml into a name/value pair.

After searching this mailing list, I seemed to come up with 2 possible solutions as work arounds:

1) use a header manager to change content-type to text/xml

Result: the content-type as shown in the recorded test script is already text/xml so that can't be the problem

2) use a SOAP/XML-RPC sampler

Result: nothing. I added it as a child to the original http request. When that didn't work, I tried putting it at the same level, just after the original http request. I made sure the garbled xml was removed from the name\value list in the original. I made sure the proper name\value pairs were added to the original.

My first question is - is this a bug in the script recording from the proxy or something I am doing? I am so hoping it is something I am doing.

My second question is - assuming I am working with a bug, is the work around I am attempting possible? If so, can someone point me in the right direction?

Any and all help is appreciated.
