I'm trying to use the apache benchmark tool. Upon using the following command I get

xx@xx:/etc/apache2/bin$ ./ab -n 10 https://10.29.2.98/
This is ApacheBench, Version 2.3 <$Revision: 1879490 $>
Copyright 1996 Adam Twiss, Zeus Technology Ltd, http://www.zeustech.net/

Benchmarking 10.29.2.98 (be patient)...SSL handshake failed (1).
140483846321920:error:140943FC:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert bad record 
mac:ssl/record/rec_layer_s3.c:1536:SSL alert number 20
SSL handshake failed (1).
140483846321920:error:140943FC:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert bad record mac:ssl/record/rec_layer_s3.c:1536:SSL alert number 20
SSL handshake failed (1).
.
.

In the httpd-ssl configuration file, SSLCipherSuite & Protocol looks like the following,

xxx@xxx:/etc/apache2/conf/extra$ vi httpd-ssl.conf

SSLCipherSuite AES128-SHA256
SSLProtocol all -SSLv3

However, both from browser and curl I can see the https working,

xxx@xxx:~$ curl -k https://10.29.2.98
<HTML>
<body>
    Welcome!!
</body>
</html>

Again, If I force curl to use tls1.2, I get the following,

xxx@xxx:~$ curl -k https://10.29.2.98 --tlsv1.2 --tls-max 1.2
curl: (35) error:140943FC:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert bad record mac

Any help, what did I do wrong?

I have installed apache & OpenSSL from the source code.

Apache :2.4.46

OpenSSL : 1.1.1c

0 + 0

openssl

apache-2.4

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
