Fixing Apachebench on OS X Lion
Raw
gistfile1.txt
If you're getting this error trying to use ApacheBench on OS X Lion:
Benchmarking mwmanning.com (be patient)...apr_socket_recv: Connection reset by peer (54)
You need to download the latest beta version of Apache and rebuild ab. Here's how (assuming you have homebrew installed).
brew install pcre
tar xzvf httpd-2.3.15-beta.tar.gz
cd httpd-2.3.15-beta
./configure
make
make install
sudo cp /usr/local/apache2/bin/ab /usr/sbin/ab

Thanks a lot. I've used this procedure with the most current httpd-2.4.3 and it worked perfectly.
