Using JMeter to test HTTPS connections

[lakshmi s]

I am testing a HTTPS URL using JMeter.I am using jdk141_03 and hence the JSSE jars have not been downloaded and used.
I am getting java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: HTTPS
Pls tell me as to what should be done to get this working.
Thanks!!

Hi Lakshmi
It is not possible to record the HTTPS requests using JMeter. If you are getting this exception at the time of script recording, my suggestion is first record HTTP requests. Then before execution change the protocol to HTTPS from HTTP in the HTTPSamplers.
If you are getting this exception while execution, but there might be a solution for this in the JMeter user group. I have seen many similar SSL related questions in this group.
Hope this helps.
