In my script, I'm using a JSESSIONID instead of a cookie; the JSESSIONID is 
extracted using a HTTP URL Re-writing Modifier and I can confirm that the 
correct value (the one which appears in the response data from the login page) 
is being applied in the Request.
e.g. POST 
https://qa67.ososinfo.org:446/Staff/staffdetail.xhtml;JSESSIONID=0655ca5420354753ae413984d34cfc27

I'm also using a VIEWSTATE, which I'm extracting prior to running the remainder 
of the test steps by using a Regular Expression Extractor and setting the 
resulting variable as a parameter in the HTTP Request,
e.g. javax.faces.ViewState=8d2%2BgOIseczB2FWSo74DqQfkmiYVaK73D8bnLTNWCx%2FB8EtE

The problem is that I'm hitting a Response code: 500 | Response message: 
Internal Server Error every time I attempt a post with all of the applicable 
data.

I tried running through the steps manually in a Firefox browser. I copied the 
contents of the Request tab from the failing page into a REST client, logged in 
using a separate tab of the same browser and grabbed the appropriate JSESSIONID 
and VIEWSTATE information, then posted with that info in place - and the manual 
post was successful.

Am I missing something? Is JMeter requiring something to accomplish this POST 
that a I'm not seeing in a manual attempt?

Happy to share any/all of what I'm seeing if it might be helpful in helping to 
troubleshoot.

Thanks,
Kurt
