How to convert binary data to readable format in Kronos application?

I am working with Kronos application and while recording, I am getting a popup window saying 'Required Jar is missing'. Also it says, 'Neoload has detected an Oracle forms application'. Is this a correct message to expect with Kronos application? It is not integrated with any other Oracle application though. I am attching the pop window message.

One more question is, in some of the requests i am seeing binary data. How to convert the binary data to a readable format? So that i can parameterize some values in that request.

NeoLoad recognizes an Oracle requests based on the content type and the server headers. I guess you have "application/octet-stream" as content type for some of your requests. I do not know Kronos application but even if it does not use Oracle forms protocol it does use binary data.

If this binary content is from one protocol handled out of the box by NeoLoad you won't have to do anything. Otherwise you will have to get information from the vendor to understand the protocol used for these binary data.

Do you have an example of these binary content?

Thanks, Nouredine.

You are correct. The content type is application/octet-stream. How to handle this?

I guess if it's really Oracle Forms content, you should see in the previous response some download of JAR files and especially a "frmall.jar" file (if the browser cache was empty before the recording).

Could you provide some screen shots of such requests/responses? Sometimes we can recognize the binary content but not guarantee.
