Hi,

Sorry. I found my mistake. I figured my newness in the language was showing, so I asked for help. But, to my surprise, I have been modifying the function for the cache file and testing the data file. :Palm Plant:. Sorry for wasting your time. It is working.

It's not a file permission problem because it works great when the

the file.

Is this also the case with the version provided by Kim-Ee Yeoh?

It acts like the file is there when it isn't. In ghci, it returns the
true boolean when the file is there and a false when it isn't. But, in
the program, it is always executing the readFile.

This is most unlikely a problem of ghc, i.e. I think there is some
problem in your programs logic. Can you provide further code possibly
restricting it to a minimal breaking example?

Also: have you tried running the function in question in ghci?

Regards

Thomas.
