When I get it right, you are running a JMeter server on your webserver because the webserver is behind a firewall and this way you try to bypass the firewall. I guess the "Bad call to remote host" is caused by the firewall because JMeter is not able to reach the rmiregistry port 1099 on the remote host. Anyway, if port 80 is not blocked by the firewall there is no need to use a remote JMeter server to test your web application, just run the tests on your local machine.If any body can shed some light on this, would be greatful,I have installed jmeter on my laptop(win2000), and I have also installed JDK1.4, I wanted to test website which is behind the firewall, I tried to make a setup by defining JAVA_HOME environment variable, which is now pointing to jadk1.4 folder. To make Jmeter jar files accessible, I copied /ext/ApacheJMeter_core.jar /lib/jorphan.jar /lib/logkit-1.0.1 into JDK1.4/bin folder As I am running Jmeter from my machine while the website is behind firewall, to run Jmeter, I did the following Here I am not sure, as hould I do this or not 1: First I ran rmiregistry 2: I run jmeter as "jmeter -s" 3: added the IP address(of the website that I want to test) in remote host file by editing jmeter.properties file.. 4: I ran jmeter.bat from my desktop, After getting into Jmeter main screen, I defined, thread group and values, then I defined "HTTP request" wherein I entered http request name, server IP address/port #(80) and path. Then from main menu I chosed "Remote start" which now shows my website ip address, but immediately after clicking this, return error as "Bad call to remote host"
