| <!-- =================== Known bugs or issues related to JAVA Bugs =================== --> |
| |
| <ch_section>Known problems and workarounds</ch_section> |
| <ul> |
| <li>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</li> |
| |
| <li> |
| The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads, |
| the total number of threads only applies to a locally run test, otherwise it will show <code>0</code> (see <bugzilla>55510</bugzilla>). |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| Note that under some windows systems you may have this WARNING: |
| <source> |
| java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences |
| WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0 |
| x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(…) returned error code 5. |
| </source> |
| The fix is to run JMeter as Administrator, it will create the registry key for you, then you can restart JMeter as a normal user and you won't have the warning anymore. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| You may encounter the following error: |
| <source>java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificates does not conform to algorithm constraints</source> |
| if you run a HTTPS request on a web site with a SSL certificate (itself or one of SSL certificates in its chain of trust) with a signature |
| algorithm using MD2 (like <code>md2WithRSAEncryption</code>) or with a SSL certificate with a size lower than 1024 bits. |
| This error is related to increased security in Java 8+. |
| <br></br> |
| To allow you to perform your HTTPS request, you can downgrade the security of your Java installation by editing |
| the Java <code>jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms</code> property. Remove the MD2 value or the constraint on size, depending on your case. |
| <br></br> |
| This property is in this file: |
| <source>JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security</source> |
| See <bugzilla>56357</bugzilla> for details. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| Under Mac OSX Aggregate Graph will show wrong values due to mirroring effect on numbers. |
| This is due to a known Java bug, see Bug <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8065373" >JDK-8065373</a> |
| The fix is to use JDK8_u45 or later. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| View Results Tree may fail to display some HTML code under HTML renderer, see <bugzilla>54586</bugzilla>. |
| This is due to a known Java bug which fails to parse "<code>px</code>" units in row/col attributes. |
| See Bug <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8031109" >JDK-8031109</a> |
| The fix is to use JDK9 b65 or later. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| JTable selection with keyboard (<keycombo><keysym>SHIFT</keysym><keysym>up/down</keysym></keycombo>) is totally unusable with Java 7 on Mac OSX. |
| This is due to a known Java bug <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8025126" >JDK-8025126</a> |
| The fix is to use JDK 8 b132 or later. |
