Hi Deepak, all, I've tried you suggestion with "Save Response to File" listener and results are saved successfully. I've debugged this and found that basically each response has a dataType field which is either "bin" or "text" and it's determined by the content type header.
There are actually two problems/bugs with this: 1. The view results tree listener assumes that if the dataType is "bin" than we have a picture and it tries to render it (while the isBinaryType method may put other contents into this category, like audio and video). In my case it tries to render a "video/f4f" as an image and fails. 2. The isBinaryType method is mistaken when setting a content type of "video/f4m" into the category of binary, while this file is in XML format. Regarding 2 - I will open a bugzilla. Regarding 1 - I am unsure if I should open a bugzilla on this or not, as my expectation from the view results tree listener is that it will show the response data, even if it is a binary content. What are your opinions on this? Best. Shmuel Krakower. Beatsoo.org - re-use your jmeter scripts for application performance monitoring from worldwide locations for free.
