JMETER-WINXP Installing JDK and Jmeter

Installing the JDK

1. Download JDK, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javaee/downloads/index.html

2, install the JDK, the current my installation directory is C:\Program files\java\jdk1.6.0_10

3. Set environment variables (My Computer-Properties-advanced-environment variables)

(1) In the user variable (can also be in "System variables") New variable name "Java_home", the variable value is: You install the directory of the JDK locally.

Take this machine as an example set as follows:

Variable name: java_home

Variable Value: C:\Program files\java\jdk1.6.0_10

(2) The new variable is named "CLASSPATH" and the variable value is:

C:\Program Files\java\jdk1.6.0_10\lib\dt.jar;

C:\Program Files\java\jdk1.6.0_10\lib\tools.jar;

C:\ProgramFiles\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\bin

It is recommended that you write the value of the variable as a relative path:

%java_home%\lib\dt.jar;

%java_home%\lib\tools.jar;

%java_home%\bin;

(3) After the "Path" variable value of the system variable, add: "%java_home%\bin;"

4, run-->cmd--> input "Java", if you can see the help information stating that the JDK installation was successful.

Installing JMeter

1, download JMeter, http://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi

2, install JMeter, unzip apache-jmeter-2.11.zip to local (any directory can), such as I downloaded it to: "E:\Jmeter\apache-jmeter-2.11".

3. Setting Environment variables

(1) In the user variable (can also in "System variable") New variable name "Jmeter_home", the variable value is: "E:\Jmeter\apache-jmeter-2.11;".

(2) Modify the "CLASSPATH" and add the following content:

%jmeter_home%\lib\ext\apachejmeter_core.jar;

%jmeter_home%\lib\jorphan.jar;

%jmeter_home%\lib\logkit-2.0.jar

4, the way to run Jmeter is to open the E:\Jmeter\apache-jmeter-2.11\bin\jmeter.bat directly.
