Jmeter 2.13 Backend Listener

Question

i have working with Jmeter 2.13 and try a new listener Backend listener, I'm using windows.

I have installed grafana/graphite in windows and run it from the web page http:/localhost:8080 and run smoothly. Grafana shows standard dashboard "shared dashboards" and 'dashboards'.

In jmeter a listener Backend listers was added and configured as default as in picture

enter image description here

In grafana i add a new data source:

Name=jmeter
Type=Graphite
url= http://localhost:2003
access:proxy/direct ( i tested both)
Basic auth: (no)

When i run test in jmeter with Backend listener nothing is shown in grafana. What did i miss, that jmeter results are not displaing

Thank you for help, Dani

Assuming that you are using InfluxDB as your backend time series database, use the below configuration in Grafana's config.js file.

  datasources: {
    influxdb: {
      type: 'influxdb',
      url: "http://localhost:8086/db/jmeter",
      username: 'root',
      password: 'root',
    },
    grafana: {
      type: 'influxdb',
      url: "http://localhost:8086/db/grafana",
      username: 'root',
      password: 'root',
      grafanaDB: true
    },
  },

Also make sure that your InfluxDB server is up and running by checking "http://localhost:8086". It should show you the login page to connect to the influxdb's web console.

Lastly, enable "DEBUG" logging in JMeter in the jmeter.properties file(log_level.jmeter=DEBUG) and share more info about the errors you see in the log if the issue still persists.
