Hi Bhanu,
The first thing that occurs to me is that when I used ' and ' around the username,password string I did this to indicate that the contents should be placed into the variables field. You haven't included them have you? I could have made that clearer. CSV Data Set Config should contain username,password The problem is either that the values are not being placed in the variables or that the file is not being read. To check if the file is being read check the jmeter log file which can be found in jakarta-jmeter2.1\bin\jmeter.log If there is no error regarding csvread then the problem is elsewhere.

It doesn't work. It doesnt read data from the file. The log file shows <sampleResult timeStamp="1131960994017" dataType="text" threadName="test 1-1" label="Login Request" time="20987" responseMessage="Non HTTP response message" responseCode="Non HTTP response code" success="false"><property xml:space="preserve" name="samplerData">GET https://www.sitestuff.com:443/hypertork/performLogin?username=&password=&login=1 Wherez it going wrong? NP: The test plan works when i provide values to the user variables rather than asking it to read from file. thanx, Bhanu James Bull <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: You should use two config elements right click --> add --> config element --> CSV Data Set config right click --> add --> config element --> User Defined variables The data set config allows you to specify the file you wish to use and the variable names to read the values into. The User defined variables allows you to define the variables referred to by data set config. Finally you refer to the vaiables in the parameters section of the http request by enclosing the variable name in ${} For example your file is like this, fred,password, bob,pass2, terry,pass3 You enter the file name into the Filename field. The path is relative to the directory your script is in. Into the Variable names field add 'username,password'. You add username and password to the user defined variables page. You refer to ${username} and ${password} in the parameters section of the httpsampler. Each time the script performs another iteration the next line will automatically be read from the file.
