Hello all,

I'm using JMeter's proxy feature to record scenarios that I plan to use to
run stress against our web service later.  This requires me to upload a
file.  As the JMeter documentation predicts, the browser isn't sending the
full path and file name to the server and JMeter is getting confused.  The
classic workaround is to put the file you want to upload in the JMeter bin
directory where JMeter will most certainly see it and be happy.

I tried that.  It isn't working for me.  It isn't working in Ubuntu.  It
isn't working in Windows.  I'm at wit's end.  It seems that there is no way
to configure JMeter to snag files from a specific directory in such a way as
I can record unimpeded.  And unfortunately, the scenario is more complicated
than a simple POST (such that I could simply modify the sampler and expect
success in the future); in the normal flow, there are requests and responses
that follow the initial POST that are not invoked if the first POST fails.

Has anyone else seen the workaround above fail?  I haven't ruled out that
the workaround is succeeding but that some other change is being made to the
request that causes our server to reject it.  That said, the current working
directory story in Java is a little convoluted and time is a factor here.

Advice?

~Joshua
