When checking my Virtual Users, why do I get an NL-NETWORK-03 error?

The Virtual User activity has been recorded correctly and you get an NL-NETWORK-03 error with the message "Failed to connect to the server". This indicates that NeoLoad could not connect to the server when playing the scenario. If the error details are java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect, it probably means that the Load Generator is using an inappropriate network interface. Check the Load Generator settings in the Runtime > Scenario section to make sure that the selected network interface allows connection to the web server. The most common causes of other errors are:

• The server has not been launched or is running on a different port.
• A firewall or anti-spyware program is preventing NeoLoad accessing the server.
• Wrong proxy settings in NeoLoad: check the proxy parameters used to connect to the web server in the NeoLoad preferences Proxy section.

If the error is not due to one of these points, please carry out a short recording on a public Internet website, such as www.google.com, create a Virtual User and check its validity with NeoLoad. Then send the log files to NeoLoad Support (all the files in the NeoLoad 8.2/logs directory).
