I have a test plan created for my API testing in jmeter. The HTTP requests run successfully when i disconnect from my corporate VPN, but when i am connected to VPN, the HTTP request fails - failed: Connection refused: connect - What could be causing Jmeter to work with VPN ?

The same thing happened to my tests on Postman, but the problem got resolved after enabling this option in fiddler (Rules --> Automatically Authenticate). If i close my fiddler or stop capturing, the postman requests would also start to fail (This behavior is seen both on/off vpn). - I am not sure how is Fiddler settings connected to postman.

Have anyone experienced the same ? Please guide me with some solutions to try and make these tools work properly on VPN without any fiddler changes or dependencies.

I am on Jmeter 5.2.1

As you are on corporate VPN, you need to add your corporate certificate to trust store.

Obtain the certificate first. Add Certificate to Trust Store Command.

keytool -import -alias certificatename -keystore c:\java-se-8u40-ri\jre\lib\security\cacerts -file location to your certificate

This resolved the issue for me and was able to run jmeter on corporate vpn.

Hope, this helps.
