I am getting the below pop up on capturing the window base application using win socket protocol..can any one explain me what it means
 
It says what it says. If you are using IPv6 communication then WinSock protocol will not be able to capture it. If you have IPv6 communication you can use IPv4 instead, at least for recording.
 
Thanks Igor. as you said I recorded the application using winsock but all the events are not captured properly..
 
@Santhakumar Thanikachalam, your issue might not be related to IPv6/IPv4. You might be recording the wrong process/app, or it can be something else. In order to understand the source of the issue, you need to provide details on your application, technologies used, client structure, info on how client-server communication works and what protocol is used and more.
 
Hi Igor, application is java with Web service call. DB is Oracle. When I apply the protocol adviser it suggested ONLY ODBC
 
Architecture is a foundation skill. Your application is making a web services call. Assumptively this is a SOAP request. Such requests use http as a carrier protocol. Record http virtual user in proxy mode. Refine your architectural skills or you will be forever handicapped in any performance role.
 
It's still not really clear how the client-server communication works. But let's assume it's Web Services the you should record your client app (the right process of course) using Web Services protocol, as suggested by James. Also can try Java over HTTP.
