I am trying to authentication to a web application but having problems. I recorded the Test Plan using the proxy and then modified it to use different user account via the new _StringFromFile function. Then running the test I found it was always authenticating as the user I had recorded it with. I then found that the Browser-derived headers contained the Basic Authorization string for that user. I deleted that and now I can no longer authenticate to the application at all. If I use a proper Authentication Manager I get java.io.IOException: Stream closed errors in JMeter If I don't use the AM then I get 401 errors - authentication required.
The weird part is when I tried authenticating with other clients to get a different perspective: 1) Mozilla 1.0 on Linux respondse after a few attempts at loading the page - saying "response is null" 2) IE and Netscape 7 on Win2K works fine 3) Wget on linux goes into a similar loop that mozilla does, with the message "End of file while parsing headers" 4) Opera 6 on Linux works fine 5) Netscape 4.78 on AIX works fine The web page I am testing has a very simple JavaScript redirect and uses a SSO product called SiteMinder. Has anyone else seen behavior like this? __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
