Answer 1

According to you, you have created "Thread Group" under "Test Plan" and you have created "Recording Controller" under "Thread Group".

Double check the following:

1. Go to "HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder" under "Workbench" and set the correct Target Controller at the right panel.
2. Start the "HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder" by clicking Start button at the bottom
3. In "HTTP Request Defaults" under "Thread Group": Input "Server Name or IP" correctly
4. Set up the browser proxy perfectly. (Default port in "HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder" of JMeter is 8080. Use the 8080 in the browser proxy also. If you want to change the proxy say, 9090 use the same proxy (9090) in the browser proxy set up)
