Hi all
I'm trying to access a site that uses Certificate Based
Authentication (it also uses SSL encryption). I would like to set up the
Proxy Recorder to record the basis of the script but I can't seem to
get it to work. I am using JMeter 2.6 with Java6 but could upgrade
either if need be.
The problem appears to be that I am not
passing a Client Certificate to the application server. The Proxy server
is using default setting except for the HTTP Sampler setting - type
which I have set to HttpClient3.1. I have modified the system.properties
to include the following:
javax.net.ssl.keyStore="C:/my_new_keystore.jks"
javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password
javax.net.ssl.trustStore="C:/my_new_truststore.jks"
javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=password
The file my_new_keystore.jks contains the Client certificate required to
authenticate as as a specific user.
The file my_new_truststore.jks contains the SSL certificate of the server. Is
this required?
When recording the test I get the following error: javax.net.ssl.SSLException:
java.lang.NullPointerException at

Could anyone explain what else I am missing?
Thanks,
