Hi Paul, I've no idea if the problem comes from file names. I tried as you suggested removing the "./" and with the -user_inf (the command for provisioning users to the scenario) I had no problems, it works fine because I use it with pools. The problem is with the other file injection, the one with "-inf", in the scenario file i can't load data fields in any way even if I try with the filename or path/filename or other combinations (ex [field1 file="10location.csv"]).
At this point, I think there is a difference from loading external data in SIPp and in SIPp used in IMS Bench: - in the SIPp documentation it doesn't mention anything about the "-user_inf" command and about users preloaded before scenario starts, the only file injection is the one with "-inf" http://sipp.sourceforge.net/doc/reference.html#inffile - in the IMS Bench documentation the only file injection explained is the one with the "-user_inf" command, BUT in the command list it mentions "-inf" without any explanation about how the read file fields http://sipp.sourceforge.net/ims_bench/reference.html#Online+help+%28-h%29 In my opinion, in IMS Bench, you can load data only from a file per scenario.. but I hope to be wrong on this.
