[10:12:50 CST(-0600)] <dd> hello
[10:13:10 CST(-0600)] <dd> i'm trying to load test cas+uportal with jmeter. what OS do people usually run jmeter in?
[10:13:39 CST(-0600)] <dd> when i run the test on a mac i am getting operation timed out errors, when i run on ubuntu i get connection refused errors
[10:25:22 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I've run jmeter on ubuntu, osx and windows
[10:32:45 CST(-0600)] <dd> did you need to do any tweaks to the OS environment?
[10:34:02 CST(-0600)] <dd> i'm just confused at where the errors are happening, either on the tomcat side or the jmeter side
[10:34:19 CST(-0600)] <dd> would a connection refused or operation time out error show up on the tomcat logs?
[10:39:45 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> not sure
[10:39:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> are you running out of tomcat workers?
[10:39:57 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> how many jmtere threads are you trying to run?
[10:40:42 CST(-0600)] <dd> i start to see these errors around 50
[10:41:05 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> how many connection threads is tomcat setup to use?
[10:41:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> perhaps you're running out of tomcat resources?
[10:41:56 CST(-0600)] <dd> i had it just at defaults, then i turned maxThreads and acceptCount up really high to test but that didn't make a difference
[10:42:11 CST(-0600)] <dd> would you mind taking a look at my server.xml?
[10:42:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't think I'll find much there
[10:42:42 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm not really a tomcat admin expert 
[10:43:50 CST(-0600)] <dd> i've seen a few examples of people's CAS jMeter tests in the wiki, are there any jmeter tests where they test CAS + uportal?
[10:44:07 CST(-0600)] <dd> no problem, here's the file, maybe i have something glaringly wrong: http://pastebin.com/s3sAUMe4
[10:44:50 CST(-0600)] <dd> or are there any tomcat configs in the wiki?
[10:45:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> honestly I'm not sure 
[10:45:06 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'd ahve to go search a bit
[10:58:00 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> dd how much pause have you scripted between simulated user actions in your jmeter scripts?
[10:59:34 CST(-0600)] <dd> i have a 5 sec pause when it submits credentials and when it logs out
[10:59:46 CST(-0600)] <dd> turned it down to 3 and no difference
[11:00:06 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> is that all the script does? log in and log out?
[11:00:36 CST(-0600)] <dd> logs in through CAS, gets ticket, goes to uPortal, goes to User preference page, logs out
[11:00:37 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> that's fine of so... just trying to get a picture
[11:01:25 CST(-0600)] <dd> drewwills: could i send you my test to look at? maybe i have something setup incorrectly, this is the first time i've used jmeter
[11:01:29 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> I'd suggest turning it up... try 6-10 sec pauses between any user action
[11:01:56 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> i can look quickly... no guarentee i'd cactch something though
[11:02:08 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> can you sent it to the user list?
