Hello Guys,

I have setup Jmeter in distributed mode.
In mater jmeter test plan - the file contining url is provided using
function ${_StringFromFile(FILE)}.
Location for FILE is JMeters bin directory.

On local machine JMeter could read FILE and request ads mentioned in FILE,
but on remote machine I could see file not found error. This error was
resolved by copying FILE in slave Jmeters \bin directory.
But on some remote machines...  I could see file not found error in
jmeter.log even though FILE was available in jmeters \bin directory - I
further dig down the issue and I found that.

After further digging the issue - I found
1.    Master jmeter location is C:\JmeterServer
2.    The slave jmeters where problem encountered -  the Jmeter location is
D:\JMeterServer

If I change Jmeter slave location to C:\JmeterServer the problem solved =85
but I need to do it on more than 20 machines... and some machines are unix
machines and its impossible to arrange C:\JmeterServer path in unix.

Another solution I tried is hardcode path in ${_StringFromFile(FILE)}
function
e.g. ${_StringFromFile(C:\\FILE)} and ${_StringFromFile(C:/FILE)}, but slav=
e
jmeter log file says =85 C:\\FILE not found.

Can anybody help me in solving this problem?

JMeter.log file error is :---
