@weisJ , do you think it might be Darklaf-related?

weisJ · 2023-10-06T13:43:03Z

I’ll have a look. However the native menu bar used in darklaf is simply the one provided by the jdk, so I’m not sure how much I can do about it.

I just pull the project and run it without any change, it is successful.
It looks like not reproducible in 5.6.3 version.
The 5.6.2 from homebrew is the same error.

ShanChathusanda93 · 2023-10-09T06:36:18Z

Facing the same issue. Anyone know a release timeline for the 5.6.3 because seems like the issue is fixed in there (based on the above comment)?

vlsi · 2023-10-09T06:41:25Z

Could you please try downloading and running 5.6.2 from https://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi to rule out homebrew packaging issue?

zzxrain · 2023-10-09T08:16:12Z

Could you please try downloading and running 5.6.2 from https://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi to rule out homebrew packaging issue?

Yes, you are right. The binary from Apache Website is working.
I think it is related OpenJDK bundled with Homebrew.
I see it always imports JAVA_HOME by OpenJDK-17 provided by brew in /opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/bin/jmeter

#!/bin/bash
JAVA_HOME="/opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk@17" exec "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/libexec/bin/jmeter"  "$@"

After edited as below (Then it will use my configured JDK instead of provided by Homebrew), it works.

#!/bin/bash
exec "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/libexec/bin/jmeter"  "$@"

andrekiba · 2023-10-14T13:37:21Z

the same fix as @zzxrain doesn't work for me, m1 with Sonoma

installed jmeter using homebrew
installed the openjdk@21 with homebrew
changed the jmeter file in this way
#!/bin/bash JAVA_HOME="/opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk@21" exec "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/libexec/bin/jmeter" "$@"

if I remove the JAVA_HOME from the file I still have the same issue

if I try to download from https://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi I have the same issue

Any help?

Hi, could you try with amazon-corretto instead of JDK provided by homebrew ?

joshelson · 2023-10-17T16:09:21Z

Same issue for me here, but manually running this:

JAVA_HOME="/opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk@21" exec "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/libexec/bin/jmeter"

So far seems to be OK.

ACACIANh · 2023-10-25T08:12:25Z

I have same issue
openjdk 17.0.5
Sonoma 14.0
brew install jmeter
I executed success in this link https://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi
but it's have to know binary file path for execute.
there is no other way?

hendisantika · 2023-10-29T10:26:04Z

I have same issue:

openJDK 21 using sdkman
Sonoma 14.0
brew install jmeter

I executed success in this link https://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi
but it's have to know binary file path for execute.
is there any other way? ✏️📗:octocat:⬆

jourquin · 2023-11-01T18:18:06Z

The problem seems to appear for any java app that uses the native macOS "Screen menu bars" setting

System.setProperty("apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar", "true");

This affects macOS Sonoma systems with a Homebrew OpenJDK.

A quick and dirty fix (in the java code) is to avoid setting this property on affected systems. A example can be found at the end of the following code :
https://github.com/jourquin/Nodus/blob/master/src/edu/uclouvain/core/nodus/Nodus.java

The test is used in line 253.

Obviously, the menu bar will be in the main application window, and not on the top of the screen, which is not a standard behavior for macOS applications.

what issue are you facing? "doesn't work" is not enough to help out.

JMeter not running after I installed those things @RukshanJS ...

I am using SDKMAN. But still doesn't work

I'll try to make a small tutorial on this. LMK if you can't still get it working.

Running the long command

JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/amazon-corretto-21.jdk/Contents/Home/ exec /opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/libexec/bin/jmeter

Works for me. Is there any way to make it work by just calling the jmeter command?

RukshanJS · 2023-11-25T05:53:26Z

@hendisantika @Oesoto I have covered the fix (including how to run with just jmeter command) on my youtube channel. Check it out and let me know comments. Also if it helps, kindly post comments over there.

Happy testing!

P.S. - just published the video and would take some time to process to higher qualities.

hendisantika · 2023-11-25T06:05:06Z

OK Good. Thanks @RukshanJS

hendisantika · 2023-11-25T06:13:06Z

Well done. Thanks a lot @RukshanJS

Now, It's working

RukshanJS · 2023-11-25T06:16:11Z

Well done. Thanks a lot @RukshanJS

Now, It's working

Awesome! Super glad it helped. Feedback much appreciated

Oesoto · 2023-11-25T15:39:24Z

@RukshanJS

Thanks. Everything is working fine now.

I found this issue when setting up a new M3 machine.

I also use a M1 machine that I've used with Jmeter 5.4.3 for a long time and I recently updated it from Ventura to Sonoma and Jmeter continued working normally without the need to install corretto. So maybe downgrading to an older version can be another possible workaround.

This worked, however jmeter version has been updated since, so changed /opt/homebrew/Cellar/jmeter/5.6.2/libexec/bin/jmeter to 5.6.3, please note the jmeter version and apply accordingly.

wrong, the issue is still existing as of August, the 16th, 2024 :(

I fixed the issue uninstalling the package using brew uninstall jmeter, and then installing manually jmeter following this youtube tutorial:
