jmeter and java webservice

Question

Hi

I am trying to test a stress test a webservice using jmeter but the requests keep stopping after around 4 hours. I submit 10 requests per second from JMeter. The webservice is still functioning properly after jmeter completes. I am using only 1 soap request and i do not specify to rad the soap response.

Does anyone have any idea why jmeter gives up after a certain amount of time? Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks Damien

There are several suggestions to check:

1) Use the latest version of JMeter

2) Use latest/different JDK version/vendor

3) Try running JMeter in command line mode (in case you have run it in GUI before)

4) Check networking/firewall setup between your client and your server
