Subject: LoadRunner Protocols, scripts are not generated!!
Date Posted: 25Apr2007 at 10:59pm
Scripts are not being generated for my application. I am testing on application that uses the following to communicate with the server:

The application will use a combination of ODBC, OLE/DB and embedded SQL (Oracle SQL*Net) to communicate with the database.

So in Loadrunner vugen, I made a combination of ODBC and COM/DCOM for my testing but the scripts are not generated.

I tried other combinations where possible but no scripts/actions where generated. In some cases, loadrunner will not let me combine oracle application with ODBC or SQl or Oracle NCA. So I am a little confused on what to do. Please help!

What can I do to resolve this problem? Do you think the problem is comming from my protocol or do you think its a problem with other loadrunner functions? Please advice!

Loadrunner Version: 8.1
Build #: 1793
Comes with the following all 8.1:
Analysis
Consol
COntroller
ERP and CRM Mediator
Launcher
Load Generator
LTAgentCommon
MI Listener Component
Monitors Over Firewall
ETC

Common causes of script not being generated for a given recording session

    * Recording wrong protocol. You think the application uses one interface, but it does in fact use another altogether. Speak with your development staff to confirm.
    * API not supported. You could have a variant of a commonly supported protocol which is too new for your release of LoadRunner
    * Unsupported OS configuration. Your version of LoadRunner is running in an environment not supported. An example, LoadRunner 5.02 on Vista.
    * Firewall/Anti Virus impact. Becuase of the way LoadRunner operates to collect information, the behavior can at times be viewed by an Anti Virus program as a bad player in the system and thus be prevented from capturing anything.
    * Application makes no calls to other services. You are recording a file based system which makes no calls to remote services.
    * Out of process communication. Process A is started by LoadRunner VUGEN for recording. Process A communicates to Process B on the same box. Process B's communication upstream is not recorded. Process B then communicates with the database server. See bbhook references on Mercury website.
    * You have picked to competing protocols to record with. Pick one and retyr to see what happens.
