Hello, I am stress testing a java application server (silverstream) using jmeter. When i start a few threads in jmeter that each do some operations, i sometimes get unexpected 403 (time out) exceptions. At first i thought it was due to the load on the application server, but after some investigation it appeared that the jmeter received these timeouts even if the server was totally unloaded.
So i did some more investigation and by increasing the server debug level i could see that if i did a post request to the server, he whould always return a 100 Continue message to the client. This appears to be normal HTTP 1.1 behavior. But these messages are apparantly not always handled well by jmeter, since the TCP connection seems to block (sometimes) after the server sends the contimue message. When the server operation times out, i get the 403 message in jmeter. I suspect this problem has something to do with the HttpURLConnection from sun. Although it claims to be HTTP 1.1 compliant, i don't think it is. Does anybody know some more about this ( in other words: is somebody out these successfully stess testing an HTTP 1.1 server using jmeter ?) After browsing a while i found out that i am not the only one having this problem.
