I tried both and also No - unless you are using a proxy to communicate with the JBoss app server. > made changes in the IE proxy setting.

Yes, if you are running MSIE on the same host as JMeter. > I also have a proxy server installed at my work place. > I learnt from the previous mail that JMeter can bypass this??? > am i right?

To use an *external proxy* server when running JMeter tests, see: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/get-started.html#proxy_server This would normally be elsewhere than localhost. To use the JMeter *inbuilt proxy* server, see: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/best-practices.html#proxy_server These can be used together if required. In your case, it sounds like you are running the JBoss webserver and JMeter and MSIE all on the same host, and you are not using a proxy server. So just choose a different port for the JMeter proxy server, e.g. 9999 JBoss: access this on localhost:8080 JMeterProxy: set port to 9999 MSIE: set proxy to localhost:9999, and then connect to http://localhost:8080/bank/main The requests from MSIE will then go via the JMeter proxy which will then record the requests. Note that JMeter cannot currently record https (SSL). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
