Hi, I'm doing some stress testing on our licensing server with around 600 different requests. Those request links are provided through a CSV file. When I keep the ramp up time at 1 sec and push all those requests, the test sometimes passes successfully and sometime I get 10 to 30% failure.
This is the failure message and I doubt it's related to our web server but specific to Jmeter, java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(Unknown Source) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(Unknown Source) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.SocksSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.Socket.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.Socket.connect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.NetworkClient.doConnect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.openServer(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.openServer(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getNewHttpClient(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.plainConnect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.connect(Unknown Source) at org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.sampler.HTTPSampler.sample(HTTPSampler.java:440) at org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.sampler.HTTPSamplerBase.sample(HTTPSamplerBase.java:863) at org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.sampler.HTTPSamplerBase.sample(HTTPSamplerBase.java:849) at org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterThread.run(JMeterThread.java:300) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Is this has to do with my internet network bandwidth? What that error exactly means? How to avoid it? Sorry, I'm newbie to load testing and any suggestion is appreciated. -- Zakir Sayed | Quality Assurance Tester | iolo technologies, LLC | www.iolo.com Makers of System Mechanic(r), the #1 Best-selling PC Performance Software Stay Tuned(r)
