JMeter does not load and gives error

My JMeter 3.0 installation was working fine and then I installed Selenium webdriver. I copied the files and folders as mentioned in the installation steps given here. I get the following error:

Writing log file to: C:\WINDOWS\system32\jmeter.log

An error occurred: Implementing class

errorlevel=1

Press any key to continue . . .

If I remove the selenium installation it works as expected.

Can someone help me with what might have gone wrong?

Thanks

  • The guide you're using is quite outdated, currently recommended way of installing JMeter Plugins is using JMeter Plugins Manager, so:

    1. Install "clean" version of JMeter 3.0
    2. Install JMeter Plugins Manager

    3. From JMeter main menu choose 

      Options -> Plugins Manager -> Available Plugins -> Selenium/WebDriver Support

      JMeter Plugins Manager

    4. Click `Apply Changes and Restart JMeter

    Plugins Manager is smart enough to detect and resolve libraries conflicts, moreover it is the handy way of managing the plugins and keeping them up-to-date.
