Hello All, I'm a newbie and trying to setup certificate with Jmeter for https load testing, but keep getting following exception:
hread Name: Thread Group 1-1 Sample Start: 2010-12-17 11:00:07 PST Load time: 378 Latency: 0 Size in bytes: 1332 Sample Count: 1 Error Count: 1 Response code: Non HTTP response code: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException Response message: Non HTTP response message: Received fatal alert: handshake_failure Response headers: HTTPSampleResult fields: ContentType: DataEncoding: null Response data: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: handshake_failure at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Alerts.getSSLException(Unknown Source) at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Alerts.getSSLException(Unknown Source) at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.recvAlert(Unknown Source) at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.readRecord(Unknown Source) at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.performInitialHandshake(Unknown Source) at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.startHandshake(Unknown Source) at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.startHandshake(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsClient.afterConnect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.https.AbstractDelegateHttpsURLConnection.connect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsURLConnectionImpl.connect(Unknown Source) at org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.sampler.HTTPSampler.sample(HTTPSampler.java:483) at org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.sampler.HTTPSamplerBase.sample(HTTPSamplerBase.java:965) at org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.sampler.HTTPSamplerBase.sample(HTTPSamplerBase.java:951) at org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterThread.process_sampler(JMeterThread.java:348) at org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterThread.run(JMeterThread.java:243) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) I saw plenty of messages related to this and tried a few things but doesn't seem to help: 1. Imported my certificate to cacerts (import was successful and Jmeter did prompt me for password while running the script). 2. Added following to System.properties: ssl.provider=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider ssl.pkgs=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol I'm using Jmeter 2.4 and jre1.6. Appreciate any help. Thanks.
