I've installed Flood 0.4 per the instructions on the Apache web site. The build seemed to go ok without any problems, but each time I try
% ./flood examples/round-robin.xml > foo.out it fails with the error open request failed (http://search.apache.org/index.cgi). Error running farmer 'Joe': Error string not specified yet. I do need to use a proxy, so I've added the line <proxy>http://neptune:80</proxy> which is the address used in other applications (e.g. firebird) that need to use the proxy. I've tried adding this line in different places within the <profile> section; I've also tried adding it in different places within the <urllist> or even just under the <flood> root level. Each time I get exactly the same error above, repeated four times. Any suggestions? - john
