What it is build with is irreverent since all you can get from the public side
of a webserver is the html output and related files.

"A torrent of errors" tells us NOTHING. No mind readers here.
Perhaps you crashed the site. Lower the connections=2 con/sec=1 and update.
Report what the errors actually are along with the actual command used (log
file line two)
