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:/home/ 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
