JMeter AWS HTTPS SNI issue


Is any way to get JMeter working with AWS HTTPS SNI ?

Right now when I'm trying to access my resource via HTTPS and CloudFront SNI enabled I receive a following exception:

Solution

  • This is a known issue of JMeter when using HTTPClient 4:

    So you have the option to switch to HttpClient3.1 implementation on the HTTP Request.

    Edit 17 feb 2016:

    • Issue is fixed in nightly build, it would be great if you could get it tomorrow and give feedback on wether it works with HTTPClient 4 for you
