jmeter is not downloading using brew in mac osx

Question

I tried to install jmeter by following this question but I fail and got below error

$ brew install jmeter

==> Downloading http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?path=jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-2.11.tgz

==> Best Mirror http://mirror.cogentco.com/pub/apache/jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-2.11.tgz

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found

Error:Failed to download resource "jmeter" Download failed: http://mirror.cogentco.com/pub/apache/jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-2.11.tgz

Why is this? Is the link broken and how to replace it?

Answer 1

Try to first update brew:

• brew update

Then retry it again, as it should download jmeter 2.12 not 2.11.

Also if you want to download jmeter-plugins with it, you can use:

• brew install jmeter --with-plugins
