HTTPS POST always "failing"

[schuSF]

I have a server running, listen on 2 ports locally; HTTP on 8080 and HTTPS on 8443.

Sniper seems to be functioning properly when I make a HTTP POST, with an output like this.

user:sniper-benchmark user$ sniper -c 5 -n 100 -p file.json -T application/json http://localhost:8080/listening/path
This is Sniper ,version 1.0

The server is now under snipe ...

However, when I try to make a HTTPS POST, Sniper is having problems connecting with the service (I am able to POST via the command line curl command). My Sniper output looks like this.

Here is my .sniperc file used.

[protocol]
version = HTTP/1.1
#connection = keep-alive 
connection = close
#accept-encoding = gzip
user-agent = golang & sniper

[header]
#cookie = SSID=Abh_TYcDc6YSQh-GB

[process]
timeout = 100
failures = 1000000

[Authenticate]
#login = jeff:supersecret

[ssl]
ssl-cert = /path/to/ssl-cert
ssl-key = /path/to/ssl-key
ssl-timeout = 100

As you can see, I have put in valid paths to the ssl key/cert and tried to up the timeout/failures. But nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated.
