How can I set multiple headers in Jmeter (HTTP Header Manager), header that are all named Content-Type, without having the problem that only the first is taken into consideration?
Ex: I set 1st header Content-Type=<value1> and 2nd header to Content-Type=<value2>. After I use the first header for login, my other HTTP requests fail because the second header is ignored.
Any ideas?
Suppose you can try to use HTTP Raw Request custom sampler as ultimate solution.

I am trying to pass the CF-IPCountry header to my response headers.
I then go to Rules --> Transform Rules --> HTTP Response Header Modification rule
None of the following solutions work (CF throws an error - unrecognised input). What is the correct way to go about it?
This doesn't work like you expect.
Request headers are passed to your server; if you want to return the request header content of Request.CF-IPCOUNTRY as a Response header, your server would have to catch it and add it to its response. After that is added to the response, the Transformation at Cloudflare would allow you to remap to whatever header name you wish.
I'm using Jmeter version 2.9, HTTP sampler to test my rest services.
The GET and POST are working without any issues, where as PUT is not passing any parameters in the request to the server.
I verified it with view results in tree.
Any reasons on why this is happening and work around this issue?
It worked for me. Based on what I read on internet, there were different solutions suggested:
Changing Content-Encoding to UTF-8
Pass the PUT parameters in the "body data" tab (as opposed to passing them in tabular format in the "Parameters" tab)
Setting Content-Type header to application/json in the HTTP Header Manager
Passing the parameters via a file (even if this were to work, how would you pass dynamic values?)
passing it as POST with a combination of above points.
WHAT WORKED FOR ME is this combination: Set content type to application/json + Pass parameters as "JSON" in the **body data tab (below is an example)
I did not need to specify UTF-8 or anything else.
EXAMPLE JSON PARAMETER BODY:
{"title":"JMeterTitle","preMortar":"JMeterPre","postMortar":"JMeterPost"}
Pass parameters in path field using:
?name=value&name2=value2
and body in Raw Post body.
if it doesn't work report a bug .
Example:
I am using JMeter 2.11 and I had the same problem. I solved in this way:
1) Setting Content-Type header similar to that you are using in your api method(Example: application/json or application/x-www-form-urlencoded etc.) in the HTTP Header Manager.
2)In HTTP Request. Body Data should look like this:
KEY=VALUE&KEY=VLAUE&KEY=VLAUE&KEY=VLAUE.......
First, try see the logs.
Had a similar problem.
I was using wrongly the "Content-enconding" field as it were the HTTP
Content-Type param. They are not related.
If you need to set Content-Type=application/json you have to use a "HTTP Header Manager" config element.
After setting correctly Content-enconding to UTF-8 the put request started to work.
You should add a parameter with an empty name (in the "parameters" tab).
If the problem persists use the result tree view to analyze the request settings.
I'm using JMeter 2.13 and facing with similar problem. This is How I've solved it:
Setting Content-Type header to text/plain in the HTTP Header Manager
Changing Content-Encoding to UTF-8
In the parameters tab, add the params without name and separated with ampersand character (&)

Hope it helps!
I have a request header with the name "USER". I can get it in my servlet filter by
request.getHeader("USER")
Is it possible to clear this value?
You cannot reset some request header value. But, you can write a request wrapper using a filter which returns null if the header name is USER
Is it possible to set some http headers while http-redirect(302 or 307)?
<?
header("some-header: xxx");
header("Location: http://other.domain.com/foo.php",TRUE,307);
?>
You can basically set whatever http headers you want either as the server or the client.
If you are indicating a redirect you should supply the Location header as your example suggests. You should also ensure that your response headers refer to that response rather than the resource that the client is being redirected to. i.e. your headers here could include Content-Length: 0, omit the Content-Type header and so on.
Not sure if this is what you're after - this question could do with a bit more detail.
You can always do the redirection 301/307.
There are ways to do it
1) Do it through java code :
response.setStatus(307);
response.setHeader("Location",url);
2) THe same thing can be done in JSPs.
A tip here is: Always use the setHeader function and not the addHeader function as they behave in different ways.
"Accept" is not listed in the forbidden headers in the documentation here:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/net/URLRequestHeader.html
but cant seem to set it in a GET request. Help!
You are allowed to specify the "accept" header, but only on a POST request with one or more variables.
The documentation comments mention this:
For browser-based Flash/AS3 applications, the only way to successfully set
or modify request headers on a URLRequest object is to set its method to
POST as well as send at least one variable of data along with the request
(i.e. with URLVariables). Otherwise the headers will silently remain
unchanged.
