Hello I’m working with Jmeter 2.4 and extended it creating a jmeter components jar, placed within the ext subfolder of libs. I’ve also created some test plans jmx files. These all run find locally. I’ve placed the whole jmeter directory on my Unix box, created a shell script to start it which consists of one line.

java JVM_ARGS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m" jmeter -t Block1Thread-1000.jmx

I have also tried

java JVM_ARGS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m" jmeter -t Block1Thread-1000.jmx

But both return 

script.sh:  line 32: java: command not found

My Unix is rather 101 so I’m could be missing something silly.

Cheers

    First, make sure java is properly installed, and that you have JAVA_HOME and a path to the java bin directory set in your user profile.

    Next, the JVM_ARGS need to be set as an environment variable. This means that the command you’re trying to execute need to be two commands, the first being

    export JVM_ARGS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m"

    And the second probably just being

    ./jmeter.sh -t Block1Thread-1000.jmx

    Please note that the second command may fail, and Linux will tell you that the script is not executable. You can change that by doing:

    chmod +x *.sh jmeter jmeter-server

    In the /bin directory of your jmeter installation.
