I have two request in 1st request is giving me 307 redirect along with location header.
I pull Location header from response headers of 1st request and then passed it to second request.
Now 2nd request is giving me 302 every time.
I tried to play with follow request / redirect automatically options in 1st and 2nd request. However it didnt help. I checked both requests shows Https, I checked cache manager it is working fine.
Played with some settings related to Cache Control still issue is occurring.
2nd request is responsible for generating phpsessionid as 'set-cookie' which will only come when 200 OK will happen.
If anyone has any workaround, please assist. Thanks.
As per HTTP Status 302
The HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) 302 Found redirect status response code indicates that the resource requested has been temporarily moved to the URL given by the Location header. A browser redirects to this page but search engines don't update their links to the resource (in 'SEO-speak', it is said that the 'link-juice' is not sent to the new URL).
so my expectation is that you need to play the same trick as with the 1st request, to wit extract the redirect URL from the Location header and add 3rd HTTP Request sampler to hit that URL
In general a "good" JMeter test should behave exactly like a real browser so you should cross-check JMeter's network footprint with what is in the "network" tab of your browser developer tools and amend JMeter's configuration so it would send exactly the same requests as the browser does.

I am using a Perl script with the
REST::Client module
to send requests to the HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM).
The URL request works fine from a browser (giving 200 OK XML response), but requests from the program to retrieve defects from a project return 302 Found instead of 200 OK.
$client->GET($api_proto.'://'.$api_url.':'.$api_port.'/qcbin/rest/domains/my-domain/projects/my-project/defects/?login-form-required=y');
What's going wrong here?
If you're using HTTP then you should become familiar with the RFC which has this
302 Found
The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI.
Since the redirection might be altered on occasion, the client SHOULD
continue to use the Request-URI for future requests. This response
is only cacheable if indicated by a Cache-Control or Expires header
field.
Now, referring to the documentation for
REST::Client, it says
# Requests can optionally automatically follow redirects and auth, defaults to
# false
$client->setFollow(1);
You will have to learn to read documentation if you intend to get anywhere on your own
I am trying to create a surveymonkey webhook to receive my survey response and i am passing my SugarCRM custom entry point URL as "Subscription Url". But i am getting error " 'mycustomEntryPointUrl' did not return a success status code. Status code is 301". My Entry point is working fine if i run it in browser using its URL also my Sugar is working smoothly.
So, i just want to know any other reason which can cause this error.
Yes so HTTP status code 301 means the page has moved permanently. If you visit it in your browser, for example, you would see a network request to the page specified with a status code of 301, then a second one to the new page. Our API request won't do any redirect, so if a 301 is returned it will raise an error.
This sometimes happens when you go to a page with http and then it redirects to https due to rules on your server.
You also want to make sure your subscription URL supports a HEAD request without any redirect.
I am trying to record a simple login and logout flow for a .Net application. After I submit the login credentials the welcome page's URL has a large alpha numeric number. This number is required to continue to the next steps.
On Fiddler I have noticed that the login credential submission request results in a 302 response and this response contain an a=129characterstring that i need in my subsequent requests.
On JMeter I have added a recording controller and on the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder I have Follow Redirects and Use KeepAlive checked (See below screenshot)
I have also recorded with Follow Redirects unchecked and different options for Grouping and HTTP Sampler Settings.
But with none of them I am able to record/capture the 302 response that i see on fiddler. Instead the login credential submission request always returns a 200 response, even if the login fails.
It is not as if that JMeter is not recording redirect requests, further down the scenario flow I have another redirect request which is captured.
I can't be the only one who is/has faced this problem. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should be doing differently to get the 302 response?
To do this:
Record with default options, the redirect Http Request triggered by 302 will be disabled by default.
Then you will need after this to uncheck "Follow Redirect" in the first one, and add a Regular Expression Post Processor to extract the data you want.
Then enable the commented second request and inject the extracted variable.
In windows 8 metro app if i send a winjs.xhr (ajax) request to http://abc.com
and that domain's response is auto redirect 302 to to http://xyz.com,
then winjs automatically follows the redirect and comes with the result of xyz.com (2nd domain), i want to stop the behavior and read the response i get from I st request before the redirect.
WinJs.xhr is simple wrapper around XMLHttpRequest and that needs to comply with W3C standard
(https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/xhr/raw-file/tip/Overview.html#infrastructure-for-the-send%28%29-method), and according to it redirects are transparent.
If the response is an HTTP redirect:
If the origin of the URL conveyed by the Location header is same origin
with the XMLHttpRequest origin and the
redirect does not violate infinite
loop precautions, transparently
follow the redirect while observing
the same-origin request event rules.
In Win 8.1 MS introduced Windows.Web.Http.HttpClient also available for WinJS, which has more configuration options so that might be solution for you.
We're working on a URL shortener project in PHP. We're using 301 HTTP redirection and naturally track our links visits. but there is something strange :
After we shorten a URL and go through it by a browser, only the first visit is tracked, and it seems that no other request is sent to our server and it directly goes to the destination URL.(I think this is a browser cache after one try). But :
When trying with a similar service like bitly , it has different treat. some of the same requests on the same browsers are tracked in bitly visit tracking (In fact more than one of them, and I don't understand why, I don't see any logic) while they also use 301 redirection.(at left bottom of browser window sometimes writes "waiting for bit.ly..." and sometimes not , in fact randomly).
Are any tricks included here? What this different treat happens?
Read the HTTP specification. A 301 response tells the browser that the requested resource has permanantly moved to the new URL that is being redirected to, and should not use the original URL anymore:
10.3.2 301 Moved Permanently
The requested resource has been assigned a new permanent URI and
any future references to this resource SHOULD use one of the
returned URIs. Clients with link editing capabilities ought to
automatically re-link references to the Request-URI to one or more
of the new references returned by the server, where possible. This
response is cacheable unless indicated otherwise.
The new permanent URI SHOULD be given by the Location field in the
response. Unless the request method was HEAD, the entity of the
response SHOULD contain a short hypertext note with a hyperlink to
the new URI(s).
If the 301 status code is received in response to a request other
than GET or HEAD, the user agent MUST NOT automatically redirect the
request unless it can be confirmed by the user, since this might
change the conditions under which the request was issued.
Note: When automatically redirecting a POST request after
receiving a 301 status code, some existing HTTP/1.0 user agents
will erroneously change it into a GET request.
For what you are attempting, try using 302, 303, or 307 instead.
10.3.3 302 Found
The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI.
Since the redirection might be altered on occasion, the client SHOULD
continue to use the Request-URI for future requests. This response
is only cacheable if indicated by a Cache-Control or Expires header
field.
The temporary URI SHOULD be given by the Location field in the
response. Unless the request method was HEAD, the entity of the
response SHOULD contain a short hypertext note with a hyperlink to
the new URI(s).
If the 302 status code is received in response to a request other
than GET or HEAD, the user agent MUST NOT automatically redirect the
request unless it can be confirmed by the user, since this might
change the conditions under which the request was issued.
Note: RFC 1945 and RFC 2068 specify that the client is not allowed
to change the method on the redirected request. However, most
existing user agent implementations treat 302 as if it were a 303
response, performing a GET on the Location field-value regardless
of the original request method. The status codes 303 and 307 have
been added for servers that wish to make unambiguously clear which
kind of reaction is expected of the client.
.
10.3.4 303 See Other
The response to the request can be found under a different URI and
SHOULD be retrieved using a GET method on that resource. This method
exists primarily to allow the output of a POST-activated script to
redirect the user agent to a selected resource. The new URI is not a
substitute reference for the originally requested resource. The 303
response MUST NOT be cached, but the response to the second
(redirected) request might be cacheable.
The different URI SHOULD be given by the Location field in the
response. Unless the request method was HEAD, the entity of the
response SHOULD contain a short hypertext note with a hyperlink to
the new URI(s).
Note: Many pre-HTTP/1.1 user agents do not understand the 303
status. When interoperability with such clients is a concern, the
302 status code may be used instead, since most user agents react
to a 302 response as described here for 303.
.
10.3.8 307 Temporary Redirect
The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI.
Since the redirection MAY be altered on occasion, the client SHOULD
continue to use the Request-URI for future requests. This response
is only cacheable if indicated by a Cache-Control or Expires header
field.
The temporary URI SHOULD be given by the Location field in the
response. Unless the request method was HEAD, the entity of the
response SHOULD contain a short hypertext note with a hyperlink to
the new URI(s) , since many pre-HTTP/1.1 user agents do not
understand the 307 status. Therefore, the note SHOULD contain the
information necessary for a user to repeat the original request on
the new URI.
If the 307 status code is received in response to a request other
than GET or HEAD, the user agent MUST NOT automatically redirect the
request unless it can be confirmed by the user, since this might
change the conditions under which the request was issued.
Just to note down my comments..
Cache control headers also plays a role on this. If you check with curl or firebug persistant tracking, you can see the cache control headers before the location. bitly is configured to be contacted back if user clicks on the links after 90 seconds.
