Jmeter- Plugins-Manager

[Mohamed Ibrahim]

Hi ,

I have created some of the custom plugins for our organization, where in which I wanted to centralize the plugins for all the users in our org.

I have created a JSON with all the plugins info into it. I have added the json address under jpgc.repo.address

I am able to successfully view and install the plugins using the plugins manager. but, the plugins list not moved to installed list. Instead its shown in available list.

Am i missing something or is it a bug ?

Thanks,

Mohamed Ibrahim

Hi,

The way Plugins Manager detects version of installed plugin is from JAR file name. It has to conform to Maven rules. Look at this example:

"versions": {
	"1.3": {
	"downloadUrl": "https://jmeter-plugins.org/files/thirdparty/CustomSoapSampler-1.3.jar",

You can see that version key is "1.3" and it strictly matches downloadUrl file name which has "*-1.3.jar" in it. This file naming rule is what you need to use for your custom plugins.

Hello Andrey, 

Thanks for your message..

Actually, I am using the exact way of naming conversions as just you have mentioned.

Still, I am seeing that issue. But the plugins are getting installed to my Jmeter. only thing is, In Plugins Manager its still listed under available list and not to installed list.

Thanks,

Mohamed Ibrahim

When you have plugins installed, what do you have in lib/ext? Can you put here listing of this dir?

Everything you show looks 100% legit. I have no idea how can this not work. Do you see any suspicious messages in jmeter.log when you open Plugins Manager?

Nope Andrey. No suspicious messages.

[Mohamed Ibrahim]

The same issue can be replicated by installing the plugin called OAuth Sampler (Deprecated) from the available list.

This will install the plugin but it won't be moved to installed list after the installation.

Thanks,

Mohamed Ibrahim

[Andrey Pokhilko]

Oh, that might be explanation. That plugin is outdated and causes problems to modern JMeter installations. You should avoid installing it.

But that plugin should trigger certain messages in jmeter.log, so it should be recognizable.
