Hopefully most errors will get reported in the jmeter log file as well. However there may be some errors that are currently not being caught. If anyone knows of any errors (*) that are only reported to the console and not the log, please advise, so we can see if it is possible to capture them. (*) excluding catastrophic errors such as out of memory and JVM crashes, which it won't be possible to capture in Java. > -- > Robin D.
