Hi, Thanks for the quick response. I tried with your suggestion and the received type was still not the one expected by the app.
It is good to know that what I'm trying to do is not supported (yet?), I will stop trying and concentrate on the Java Request Sample instead. However if someone found a way to achieve that with an HTTP Sampler, I would be glad to hear how.

So I dont think what you want is currently supported The mime type against the file parameter , should be the mime-type of the file - text/xml or whatever not of the entire request , can you try with that and multipart/form-data , i find it surprising that your receiving application mandates multipart/mixed. You can either use a different tool like SOAP UI which should have better support or you can code this as a java class and invoke it with a Java Sampler in jmeter if you dont feel like diving into Jmeter code. regards deeoak On Wed, May 12, 2010 at 8:48 AM, Renaud, Martin <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi All, > > > > I'm trying to use JMeter 2.3.4 to send a request to a REST application > without success. > > > > I'm using the HTTP Request Sampler.
