siege - HTTPS requires libssl - MacOS Mojave

Question

I Installed SIEGE 4.0.4

I install from source

I install this too :D :

brew install openssl brew install zlib

But im getting this error:

[error] HTTPS requires libssl: Unable to reach sitename.tld with this protocol: Socket is already connected

Answer 1

Installing through brew worked for me:

brew install siege

You might also need to set up flags as described:

If you need to have openssl first in your PATH run:

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

For compilers to find openssl you may need to set:

export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include"

Note: this was suggested in this answer, but I can't mark it as duplicate because it hasn't been accepted.
