Calling eBay API from jmeter returns: Non HTTP response message: Connection timed out: connect

I have problem specially with jmeter and Ebay. Jmeter is working with different API and eBay payload is working with Postman client. But I need to create some items in eBay from jmeter. Used jmeter 2.9 and also 2.13 same result.

I used sample from developer.ebay

This is the request sent out by jmeter:

Did you somebody did similar scenario? I dont know where is the problem, both parts jmeter also sample addItem call are working separately. Thank you.

Solution

  • Try again by removing below in your payload and post it again, I hope it should work .

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> ,

    also please attach the jmeter http sampler screenshot.

    debugging tips:

    1. if it works in POST MAN , try to find the difference in http raw request went in both . If you find any try adding adding them in jmeter too , sometime http headers will miss.

    2. check your machine is firewall protected?

      Hope it will help you.
