I have

  • Openjdk 12.0.2

  • jmeter 4.0

  • Windows 10

    When I am trying to launch Jmeter using "jmeter.bat" I am getting following error message :

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer java.lang.module.FindException: Module java.activation not found errorlevel=1 Press any key to continue . . .

I have gone through few blogs and answers which says I don't have "activation.jar". so now I have downloaded the required jar but don't have any idea regarding where to keep it.

You're suffering from JMeter bug #62065

As per 9 Easy Solutions for a JMeter Load Test “Out of Memory” Failure you should always be using the latest version of JMeter (which is JMeter 5.2.1 as of now) so consider upgrading JMeter to the latest stable version available from JMeter downloads page and you should be able to use it normally.

If for some reason you have to stay on JMeter 4.0 you can downgrade your Java to OpenJDK 8

If for some reason you cannot do anything with the JMeter and OpenJDK version download activation-1.1.1.jar and drop it somewhere to JMeter Classpath
