works fine for me
Thread Group
SOAP XML/RPC (returning your response , use namespaces checked)
Xpath Extractor (child of above)
Debug Sampler (Shows the value of the variable)
So are you getting any errors in jmeter.log? Also you seem to mention global
UDV? do you mean you also have this as a user defined variable (it shouldnt
be needed)
Can you add A View Results Tree Listener and a Debug Sampler immediately
after so that you can verify the values of the variables ? Also are you
using the latest version of jmeter (2.3.4)
