how to upload file in Jmeter? when .txt file body data contain extra special characters and extra lines server throwing 400 Bad request. if body data contain simple "Hello World" am able to upload file into the server. can you please help me on this.
The easiest way is just record your file upload event using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Configure JMeter for Recording, the fastest way is using JMeter Templates Feature
From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create"
Expand Workbench -> HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Copy the file you want to upload to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation
Configure your browser to use JMeter as a proxy
Perform upload in browser - JMeter will generate relevant HTTP Request sampler under Test Plan -> Thread Group -> Recording Controller

As unable to record the application through JMeter recorder (encountered 401 Unauthorized while recording login), used Blazemeter Chrome plugin to record the script. But file upload is not getting successful during re-run. I have tried checking/unchecking "Use multipart/formdata" , provided details in File upload section of the transaction, used Java implementation but no luck.

We cannot "suggest" anything without seeing the:
Response Data and headers - can be observed using View Results Tree listener
Request Data and headers - the same listener can show you this
Values of any JMeter Variables used. Can be figured out from the request data but it's more convenient to use Debug Sampler
The most common reason for not being able to replay the recorded test script is missing or improperly implemented correlation so ensure that your test is doing what it supposed to be doing since the very first request.
The approach of "checking/unchecking" and switching to different implementations is not very good, you should rather use a sniffer tool to capture the requests originating from JMeter and from the real browser, compare them and amend JMeter's configuration unless the requests would be exactly the same (apart from dynamic parameters which need to be correlated)
I am trying to upload the jpg file in jmeter and the file is uploaded (not with the right extension I suppose) and when tried to download it then file size is exactly same as the original jpg size but it is corrupt. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
I don't like your type="file" Parameter Name:
so most probably the problem is somewhere around this setting.
However I might be wrong, the easiest way of creating the file upload request in JMeter is just recording it using HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
The only thing you need to do is to copy your apple.jpg file to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation, this way JMeter will be able to properly capture and generate the relevant HTTP Request sampler and HTTP Header Manager

I have recorded a transaction using Blazemeter and trying to validate the same .jmx file in Jmeter 4.0. I have given the correct File path(jmeter/bin folder path) in Files Upload tab and below MIME Types but I am getting below error.
Please suggest.
In the majority of cases you need to tick Use multipart/form-data for POST box in order to be able to upload the files using JMeter:
See RFC 2388 for more details. If you tick this box you need to remove Content-Type header declaration from the HTTP Header Manager
Also be aware that according to JMeter Best Practices you should be always using the latest version of JMeter so consider upgrading to JMeter 5.3 (or whatever is the latest JMeter stable version)
And last but not the least, you should be able to normally record file upload requests using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, just make sure to copy the file(s) you will be uploading to JMeter's "bin" folder
I have read so many articles on the Internet regarding Uploading Image files using JMeter but nothing worked for me. Even I have tried the approach using blazemeter plugin but no luck I'm not getting the script in jmx file.
Can someone please help me with this. The script is just passing but actually, Image is not uploading.
I would really require your inputs on this one.
Just record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Copy the file, you want to upload into "bin" folder of your JMeter installation
Start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Perform upload in the browser
That's it, JMeter should capture the request and store it under the Recording Controller
Point 1 is essential, if you omit it - you will neither be able to record the file upload request nor to replay it. Check out Recording File Uploads with JMeter article for more details.
I have designed a jmeter script to download PDF using 'Save response to a file' listener.It is working when I executed in local both in GUI and non GUI mode and the PDF is downloaded.But when im trying to run the same script in Distributed remote testing using client(windows 7) and server(windows 7) on the same subnet,unknown and plain files are getting downloaded instead of the the PDF file.
I have given folder path of the server in the Listener.Is there any other way to download the actual PDF instead of those unknown file.
thanks in advance :)
In distributed testing, jmeter uses StrippedBatch mode which strips response data when sending response to controller.
So you need to switch mode to One that does not strip like Standard:
https://github.com/apache/jmeter/blob/trunk/bin/jmeter.properties#L758
So add to user.properties:
mode=Standard
