Hi - I'm testing an upgrade of our testing engine from JMeter 2.1 to
2.3.1 and hit some problems.
When JMeter 2.3.1 runs a specific testcase against a specific Java
application server (webMethods Integration Server 6.5) it reliably hangs
the server. webMethods goes out of action with Java out of memory error
doing what seem like random things, when running a plain HTTP request
sampler:
For eg:
<StackTrace>java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
at
com.wm.dd.jdbc.oracle.net8.TTIRXDDataPacket.streamIn(Unknown Source)
...
JMeter 2.1 has no such problems with the test suite and doesn't hang the
server.
The testcase executes a SOAP/XML-RPC Request sampler (it POSTs an XML
document to webMethods), followed by an HTTP request sampler (again to
webMethods). It hangs while doing the HTTP request. There is one thing
funny with the testcase. Back in the day when the testcase was first
written, there were some problems with the XML RPC sampler. So we used
the HTTP Header Manager to fake Basic authentication and Content-Type
headers
HTTP Header Manager
Authorization Basic xxxxxx=
Content-Type text/xml
I saw this in the documentation for the SOAP/XML-RPC sampler...
For versions of JMeter later than 2.2, the sampler no longer uses
chunked encoding by default.
For screen input, it now always uses the size of the data.
File input uses the file length as determined by Java.
On some OSes this may not work for all files, in which case add a child
Header Manager with Content-Length set to the actual length of the file.
Or set Content-Length to -1 to force chunked encoding.
I tried setting content-length to -1 for the SOAP/XML-RPC sampler but it
did not help.
Any clues? Im baffled by this.
Regards,
Sonam Chauhan
