Apache JMeter:Why am I getting an issue in the proxy connection for the recording controller?

I need some help to solve one issue based on this module Performance Testing of a Web application using JMeter. To finish my project in JMeter I have to record website actions using HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder to create I used Templates( I use lenovo windows 10). I had an issue to record some requests, but I found a solution:

  1. import ApacheRootCErtificate
  2. change proxy server, on manual proxy set up, enter localhost and port:8080 and save it( same port I entered to HTTP Test Script Recorder). It started recording, but after some seconds my chrome stopped working and gave an error: "no internet. there is something wrong with the proxy server, or the address is incorrect -checking the proxy address -running windows network diagnostics" I tried to fix this problem by turning off the manual proxy set up and it worked, but I am not able to use Test Script Recorder. Can you help to find a solution to these issues?

It might be the case you're behind a corporate proxy, there is a special chapter of the JMeter documentation which explains how to configure JMeter to make it aware of the upstream proxy server:

If you are testing from behind a firewall/proxy server, you may need to provide JMeter with the firewall/proxy server hostname and port number. To do so, run the jmeter[.bat] file from a command line with the following parameters:

-E [proxy scheme to use - optional - for non-http]

-H [proxy server hostname or ip address]

-P [proxy server port]

-N [nonproxy hosts] (e.g. *.apache.org|localhost)

-u [username for proxy authentication - if required]

-a [password for proxy authentication - if required]

Example:

jmeter -E https -H my.proxy.server -P 8000 -u username -a password -N localhost

Also you can use JMeter Chrome Extension for recording a JMeter test, in this case you won't need to worry about proxies and certificates.
