How can I login multiple username and paasword using csv data set config in jmeter3.0?

Question

In http request, I have set the variable names are

username=$(name)          
password=$(psw)

In CSV data set config set the details are:

File name: /home/desktop/login.txt            
Variable name: name,psw             
Delimiter use: ,  

In CSV file, I have three user accounts are:

radha,radha            
sumithra,sumithra        
moorthi,moorthi

In the above configuration, I have run the jmeter3.0 in Linux . But, It does not read the CSV/txt file data. the below invalid request passing my application.

POST data:

username=%24%28name%29&password=%24%28psw%29&userstate=others&submit=Enter

Kindly give me a useful solution.

Every step you have followed seems okay here. But as I can see you have missed declaring the variable properly in your scripts. In your Http request sampler, you have to send parameter as like below:

username=${name}
password=${psw}

In Http sampler:

Since URLs often contain characters outside the ASCII set, the URL has to be converted into a valid ASCII format.

URL encoding replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a "%" followed by two hexadecimal digits.

So in your case, POST data is shown as "username=%24%28name%29" because of the ( and ) .
