Currrently, I am running jmeter with this property to load my script for beanshell preprocessor.
<apache jmeter Bin directory>/bin/jmeter -Jbeanshell.preprocessor.init=D:/commons.bshrc
I need shortcut to lauch JMeter with argument. I would like to store this property somewhere and would be able to use the short cut to load the same file when jmeter is started.
Example : when I click on "apache-jmeter.jar" file from bin directory, it opens jmeter GUI. But it should also load the commons.bshrc file.
Is there any ways to do this?
You can create batch file:
#echo off
start /d "Java bin" -jar jmeter.jar -Jbeanshell.preprocessor.init=D:/commons.bshrc
Check out this wiki, about howto create batch file. http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Batch-File
Or you can easily edit your jmeter.bat file.

I just tried to install jmeter - (Apache-j meter-5.1.1) but when I view the bin folder bat file is missing. My configuration details: version of jdk is 12.0.2, my operation system is 64 bit. View the screenshot of bin folder -

Type Windows Batch File is a file type with extension .bat
You have such jmeter file in your screenshot
A batch file is a script file in DOS, OS/2 and Microsoft Windows.
The filename extension .bat is used in DOS and Window
The jmeter.bat file can be obtained from JMeter sources at any time if you removed it by accident.
However in fact you do have the file:
You might want to configure Windows Explorer to show file extensions
In general I would recommend launching JMeter from Windows Command Prompt as in case of i.e. Java misconfiguration you will not be able to see the output given you launch JMeter by double-clicking the shortcut because it will blink and close immediately.

Just double click on file type named as Jmeter with type as "Windows Batch File" or else open it from command prompt/terminal.

I have gone through the following guide to set up an SSIS package to retrieve a text file located on an SFTP server:
https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/3435/using-sftp-with-sql-server-integration-services/
To summarize, the SSIS package executes PSFTP.exe (A PuTTY tool) which takes the necessary credentials to connect to the server. It also takes a batch file that it executes after connecting. This batch file contains the commands to retrieve the desired text file. To start from the guide, it simply contains a cmd command to change directory, and a get command to retrieve the file:
cmd DataDump
get TeleMarketingResults.txt
All of this works fine.
The issue arises when I try to make this batch file logic more complex as it does not seem to recognize basic keywords. For instance, I would like to modify it to retrieve the most recent file, so I tried adding this:
for /f %%i in ('dir /b/a-d/od/t:c') do set LAST=%%i
echo The most recently created file is %LAST%
but then I get these errors:
psftp: unknown command "for"
psftp: unknown command "echo"
If I execute the batch file manually in a local directory, it works. The issue only occurs when passing it as a parameter to PSFTP.exe. Why is this?
psftp script file can contain psftp commands only. for, set or dir are not psftp commands.
There's hardly any reasonable way to retrieve latest file using psftp. You would have to do it in two steps. First to retrieve listing and store it to a file. Then parse that file using some smart batch file commands to find the latest files. And then run psftp again to download that file. It is cumbersome and ineffective as it requires two connections.
You better use a more powerful SFTP client. For example it's trivial with my WinSCP SFTP client. See
Question WinSCP select most recent file or
WinSCP article Downloading the most recent file.
I have a few applications that I am trying to deploy with SCCM 2012 but the installations are failing through the application catalog. So what I have for the deployment type is a script installer. I have "cmd.exe" (Without quotations) in the Installation program field and "Installer.bat" in the installation start in field.
When I look at the ccmcache folder, all the contents over that application are there but the following error displays the Software Center:
0x8007010B(-217024629)
I have done some reading online and the "10B" is a common command line error for invalid directory. I have tested the batch file when hard coding a path but my question is, how can I edit the batch file or SCCM to pull from the CCMCache path where the files are downloaded to on the local client? Currently the Batch File is simply:
#echo off
ApplicationName.exe
Do I need to edit the file to cd into the CCMCache folder where the files are placed? How can I get the batch file to run the executable that is downloaded to the CCMCache folder?
Thank You!
You need to have the full path to the installation in your script
#echo Off
\\path to .exe
The way the command is written will not be able to find the .exe file. You need to add the full unc path to the .exe into your .cmd file. You should have your installation .exe and .cmd file in the same location on the distribution share
Recommended Solution:
Before starting, since you are only launching an exe with your batch file, I would recommend just using your ApplicationName.exe as your command line parameter in SCCM instead of using a batch. This will eliminate the need to engineer any further.
Modifying the existing solution to work:
If you do still want to use a batch file, keep a few things in mind. The syntax you are using to launch the batch file will not work. I would recommend just using the batch file name "installer.bat" as your command line. If you still want to preface the batch with the cmd.exe, you absolutely need to use the /c switch with it
cmd.exe /c installer.bat
If you don't use /c the console host will only open to a promopt and not execute your batch.
This is not an ideal solution though because using "cmd.exe /c" will set your working directory to the location of cmd.exe (ie "C:\windows\system32") and since your content is staged in ccmcache, you will need to specify its location within your batch. To do this, you would use %~dp0 variable which gives you the directory the current batch is running from. This means modifying your batch to read
#echo off
%~dp0ApplicationName.exe
I have to write a batch file to download a .exe application and I am finding it very difficult to make sense of the whole process.
All I have got done so far is;
start /d C:"\Program Files <x86>\Google\Chrome\Application"
chrome.exe http://website/directory
This brings up the page I want to go to and the .exe file is on this page, but I don'y know how to download it, I tried;
start /d C:"\Program Files <x86>\Google\Chrome\Application"
chrome.exe http://website/directory/download.exe
This was no good, it tried to load the page, while I thought it would just download the file.
If anyone can give me some insight into this, it would be great
Do not use chrome. Depending on the tools you can rely on, use for example wget or curl. For documentation, have a look at the project's homepages (wget, curl), basic invokation is easy:
wget -o outfile http://example.com/url/to/file
curl -o outfile http://example.com/url/to/file
You may need to change:
http://www.
to
ftp://ftp.
It would help if you provided the actual internet file link.
I have a .jmx file of all of my test plans and I want to create a batch file. When I click that, everything starts and ends automatically. So that I can provide it to my client as well to verify that I have performed the load test on his website. How can I achieve this?
jmeter does not support running batch of .jmx files as document part 2.4.3 (Command Line Mode) gives to us.
I would recommend you to try 2 approaches:
1) to follow best practices of running jMeter in non GUI mode.
In accordance to this approach you are expected to use the command
jmeter -n -t D:\TestScripts\script.jmx -l D:\TestScripts\scriptresults.jtl
Where the pareameters:
-n [This specifies JMeter is to run in non-gui mode]
-t [name of JMX file that contains the Test Plan]
-l [name of JTL file to log sample results to]
-j [name of JMeter run log file]
2) to use any cloud service for running your .jmx file.
BlazeMeter (http://blazemeter.com/) worked for me fine.
One can adjust the test plan settings.
Testing results can be seen on “Load Report” tab as soon as test finishes.
For detalization one can follow Getting Started: Scripting with JMeter steps.
Hope this works for you.
Just write the following command in a text file and save this file as SomeName.bat
#ECHO OFF
jmeter -n -t "Your .jmx file path" -l "Your .jtl file path"
For example:
#echo off
jmeter -n -t F:\DEV\WORKSPACE\buyer.jmx -l F:\DEV\WORKSPACE\output.jtl
After saving click on that bat file. The test plan result will be stored into .jtl file.
Note: Make sure you put this bat file into JmeterinstallationDirectory/bin folder.
