Hi
At first I thought this wasn't currently possible.
But when I saw that you were using a file with curl, I remembered how
the HTTP Post code works, and I think it is possible to do.
If you put the "post body" you want to send in a file, and then
reference the filename in the "Filename" field HTTP Request GUI, and not
specify any value for "Mimetype" nor "Value for "name" attribute",
then the HTTP Post code will send the file content as the only content
of the post body.
I think that will work as you expect. If it does not work with Jmeter
2.2, I suggest you try with the latest nightly build, since I have
changed the HTTP Post handling in Jmeter a bit lately,
but I am not sure if you need the changes I have made, I don't remember
exactly.
Note that this discussion is a bit similar to the discussion going on
under the subject "$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA" on this mailing list.

All,
I have just started using jMeter v2.2 and am encountering an issue.
I have been using curl to send the following style of HTTP POST to the
system under test:
$ curl -data-binary @/example/file.xml
http://localhost:1234/example/path
(Wireshark packet capture)
Hypertext Transfer Protocol
POST /example/path HTTP/1.1\r\n
Request Method: POST
Request URI: /example/path
Request Version: HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: curl/7.12.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.12.1
OpenSSL/0.9.7a zlib/1.2.1.2 libidn/0.5.6\r\n
Host: localhost:8080\r\n
Pragma: no-cache\r\n
Accept: */*\r\n
Content-Length: 6190
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n
\r\n
Line-based text data: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
<!DOCTYPE EXAMPLE SYSTEM "C:\EXAMPLE.dtd">\r\n
<Doc>\r\n
<Asset>\r\n
<Tag Place="Wonderland" Person="Alice" />\r\n
</Asset>\r\n
</Doc>
Is it possible to send this format of HTTP POST using jMeter? It only
seems to support multipart-form POSTs.
Thanks,
Alex Thomson
