Different Redirect Location in JMeter and HTTPFox

[Alexandru Rotaru]

Hello,

I am trying to create a script for an asp.net application using
JMeter, that adds an event. For adding an event I need to get through
4-5 steps (pages), so I send 4-5 Post requests from JMeter.
Everything works fine for the first 3 Posts, but at the last one, the
response is not redirected to the correct page, so the post is not
performed.

I used HTTPFox Firefox add-on to monitor the website activity, and the
Location fields from the response header have different values in
JMeter and HTTPFox:
- JMeter redirects to the posting page

Hi
a. Whats the data getting posted , is it the same? is there some data on the
page that needs to be extracted or posted (or some hidden variables etc)?
b. Have you asserted all the previous responses and seen the content is
correct
c. if you enabled view results tree and checked the response for your failed
request and checked out the html , is it showing you any error message from
the server?

Hi Deepad,

difference that I can see is in the message header.
it's true, I need to extract some hidden items values (eg.
__VIEWSTATE), but I take them from the answer of the previous post.
b. yes, all the previous message are correct. I use View Results Tree

hi
difficult to diagnose without access :). Id guess that the posted data is
not exactly the same (perhaps the values arent extracted completely)
I'd probably run the test in jmeter, copy the HTML returned on the page that
is doing the posting into a html file. modify the form action to point to my
server and open that HTML in the browser and submit it while recording the
post on the browser. If this works then I'd compare the values and it must
match exactly the post in the next step in the JMeter.

Im not sure I understand point c. Are you getting a page not found error?In
your first mail it seemed to be a redirect to the posted page , which looks
more like the server threw a validation error

The last post is changed in a post and a get because of the
redirection (I ticked Follow redirects in JMeter): the response for
the post is 302 and then the response for the get (JMeter is trying to
get the page specified in Location field) is 404 - Page not found - so
the result for the sampler is 404 - Page not found.

I'm not sure I understand the part with copying the HTML code from
JMeter ...
If I copy the HTML from the last POST that worked into a local file
and set the redirection to point to the server (use absolute path,
instead of relative), then the event is added and the thanks page is
returned.
Is this what you meant?

Thanks a lot for the help,
Alex

Yep , so if its not working from jmeter , then you have to compare(with what
jmeter posted) and the values must match exactly. I typically separate each
parameter and check the values one by one and see whether theres something
missing/added. All the __VIEWSTATE etc all must match exactly including
their values.

Im not sure why you are getting a 404, is the requested url correct or does
it really not exist on the server (in which case there is a bug in the
application code)?

I tried to use both Redirect Automatically and Follow
Redirects, but
without any success.
I am new to JMeter, so I am thinking that maybe there's
something that
I'm
missing...
Please let me know if you need any other info.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi.

I am trying to capture a parameter to my samplers and use it as a
value in the HTTP Header Manager.

I have a User Parameter that uses a bean shell script. The beanshell
script sets the variable GUID to a random number. I have two samplers
and I only see my value set for the second sample. My layout looks like
this:

UserParameters -- calls the script, which sets the variable GUID.
MyThreadGroup
--- {$GUID}-MySample1 (GUID is always set)
------HTTP Header Manager (GUID is Never Set)
--- {$GUID}-MySample2 (GUID is always set)
------HTTP Header Manager (GUID is only set when both are enabled)


Does anyone have any insight as to what might be going on ? Alternative
approaches are welcome.

Thanks,
--sidd.

hi ..

I needed to check TRUE on the User Parameters, update once per iteration.
