That means the RE did not match. It is not affected by grouping brackets. I just tried the RE and it works for me, so there must be a typo in it, e.g. trailing space? > > you must have at least one set of parenthesis. > > (http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#Regular_Expression_Extractor) Parentheses are not needed if you use $0$ to return whatever the full RE matches. In this case, it might be safer to add ; around the group: > regex: (.{8,8}-.{4,4}-.{4,4}-.{4,4}-.{12,12}) regex: ;(.{8,8}-.{4,4}-.{4,4}-.{4,4}-.{12,12}); > template: $1$ in which case $0$ would include the ;;, so the group is needed here. > match: 1 > > retrieved using ${refName} (didn't specify grouping) > > > You can test REs using the online ORO demo: http://jakarta.apache.org/oro/demo.html Or using a simple test plan with Java Request (put data in ResultData) and RE Post-Processor, Debug Sampler and View Results Tree. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ > > > > > 2008/11/12 Massas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > > Hi! > > > > I'm trying to use the regular expression extractor in order store a > response > > message in a variable, which i later want to use in a http sampler. > > > > It feels like I've tried almost everything, but I fail to get the variable > > to other than the default value. > > The response message i want to parse is in this format: > > 4;1aa899f6-73f5-473f-bea4-e102b4366da5; > > I want to extract the stuff between the semi colons, and it will always be > > at this format.
