Description Frank Schneider 2007-09-13 12:14:28 UTC 
Tested with nightly build: r574051

The include controller runs well but only with a absolute path to the file.
With a relative path I get the Error message: No such file or directory
But with jmeter 2.2 it works well.
Comment 1 Frank Schneider 2007-09-13 12:55:42 UTC 
Not a bug. My fault. Start JMeter from Start menue in GNOME so
the relative path is not from the bin directory.
Comment 2 Luciana Moreira 2010-05-13 03:50:31 UTC 
I am working with version 2.3.4 and I have the same issue. I am using the same JMeter scripts in different machines with different paths to the $JMETER_HOME$/bin directory and also different paths to the scripts.

Nevertheless, all scripts are in the same relative path in all machines. So ideally JMeter would make the paths relative to the loaded jmx file so i would not get the Error message: No such file or directory.

I saw someone suggesting to simply go to the desired working directory and start the jmeter gui from there. If I am working on different scripts I have to start JMeter every time I change the script.
