Hi Marc

Thanks for getting back so quickly...

Ah well, at least it's not somethings I'm doing!

Would it be possible to make an older version of webtest available until you get the chance to fix httpunit?

otherwise, I'll sit back and wait developments :-)

Hi,

I've faced the same problem, and I think this comes from a bug in the last version of httpunit when getting a file from the file system. Indeed with version 1.5.4, the following code produce the same error as the one you mention:

WebConversation webConv = new WebConversation(); webConv.getResponse("file:///home/marc/EWorkspace/CanooWebtests/doc/samples /testfile.html");

but with httpunit 1.5.3 or 1.4.5 it works properly.

If this is really an httpunit bug and as webtest now relies on httpunit 1.5.4, I guess we have to hack httpunit to fix it as long as it's not solved in a new httpunit release.

Marc.

Hi guys

I've installed Webtest on my Mandrake 9.1 system, and have just hit the same problem reported by Wei Chena few days ago - output at the end of this message

Here's some more information and thoughts, which might be helpful...

I have installed webtest into /usr/local/webtest

PATH=/usr//bin:/bin:/usr/bin::/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/h ome/ mytest/bin:/usr/local/apache-ant-1.5.4/bin JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_01 ANT_HOME=/usr/local/apache-ant-1.5.4 (Note - CLASSPATH is not set... could this be the problem?)

I am running Apache 2 (and the httpd daemon is running) - web root is /var/www/html - ie webtest is outside the webroot...

I have been successfully run the Java demo scripts, so Java seems to be OK, it's been a while since I played with java, so I may have missed some vital step.

Are any changed needed to the Apache conf? - for instance, does Ant require jakarta to be installed? I've not used Ant before, so I'm not sure how to make sure that it's working...

Loads of questions I know - but I'm keen to get the hang of webtest so that I can be sure that the web code I'm writing actually works!

Thanks in advance for any help or ideas

Cheers

Peter
