Does not build on Windows #6

Closed kvanbere closed 10 years ago

kvanbere commented 10 years ago

The Windows haskell platform shipped with 7.6.3 doesn't have a network package within the network-simple version range. I tried to build it today, but it's really painful to do and requires some manual configuration.

To be honest, I haven't figured out all the details, but cabal install pipes-network tries to upgrade the existing version of network which in turn installs this package which in turn fails due to the compilation of the .c files bundled in network being clunky to configure (even from MinGW).

I don't think this was always the case, but I forget when it became so.

k0001 commented 10 years ago

I don't use Windows myself nor I have a computer with Windows available, so I'll need more details. What version of network do you have? The Haskell Platform's web page says it it 2.4.1.2, which is the within the bounds of the current requirement on network:

network (>=2.3 && <2.5)
kvanbere commented 10 years ago

You seem correct, but install fails and I can't explain it.

k0001 commented 10 years ago

It might be the parsec installation at C:\Users\Kyle\AppData\Roaming\ghc\i386-mingw32-7.6.3\package.conf.d: which is triggering the installation of a newer version of network.

Can you try running cabal install -v3 network==2.4.2.2 to see if you get any ideas? It seems this issue isn't related to network-simple but to network; maybe you can find some help in the issues in the network issue tracker?

kvanbere commented 10 years ago

I'll look at this later, but I'll pop it here incase you might want to in the meantime.

I'm aware it gives some instructions for installing network there (and on a few blogs too), but it's an extremely nontrivial/hacky thing to do. The network package on Windows is one of those which are better left alone and only upgraded with new HPs.

k0001 commented 10 years ago

Try getting rid of the parsec==3.1.5 installed in C:\Users\Kyle\AppData\Roaming\ghc\i386-mingw32-7.6.3\package.conf.d; I think that's what triggering the installation of a new network package,

kvanbere commented 10 years ago

Removed parsec, but it didn't seem to help. cabal install pipes-network still fails wanting to reinstall network (it also reinstalls the same version of parsec). I think you're right -- this is probably not a network-simple issue, but nonetheless it means neither network-simple or pipes-network seem to work on Windows...
