Siege HTTPS README
Siege 1.10 introduced https protocol support. To enable HTTPS
you will have to download OpenSSL < http://www.openssl.org >
to enable Secure Socket Layers and install it on your system.
Please consult the OpenSSL documentation for configuration and
installation instructions. Once it is installed, you are ready to
build siege with https support.
----------------------------IMPORTANT----------------------------
ATTENTION: If you already have siege installed on your system
and you want to enable https support, you will have to remove the
previous version before continuing. If you have the original
source directory, the simplest way to remove siege is:
$ make uninstall
If not then you will have to remove it manually. It is important
that you removed the siege binary as well as the libraries. To
remove siege:
$ cd PREFIX/bin
[ by default /usr/local/bin ] and remove siege:
$ rm siege
Next you will have to remove the libraries:
$ cd PREFIX/lib
[ by default /usr/local/lib ] and remove the libraries:
$ rm libsiege*
$ rm libjoedog*
To build siege with HTTPS protocol support consult the document
INSTALL in this directory. For the impatient:
$ ./configure --prefix=/some/dir --with-ssl=/dir/with/ssl
$ make
$ make install
If you've installed openssl in the default directory, then the
directory parameter is /usr/local/ssl. The configure script is
designed to scan several common installation paths if it does
not find ssl in the directory that you've indicated.
NO SSL?
To build siege without ssl support, especially if you have ssl
installed on your system, build siege as follows:
$ ./configure --prefix=/some/dir --with-ssl=no
$ make
$ make install
BUG ALERT: Several problems have been reported with the openssl
version which ships with Red Hat 9.x. We recommend you compile
your own ssl rather than use the Red Hat version.
