Hi,
following Howards guidance I tried to start GHCI with the -v option and get:

Any ideas why this happens?

Hi Arie,

My guess is that you don't have a necessary library in your path. Here are the Haskell libraries I have in my path (change as necessary for your setup):

C:\Program Files\Haskell Platform\2013.2.0.0\lib\extralibs\bin
C:\Program Files\Haskell Platform\2013.2.0.0\bin
C:\Program Files\Haskell Platform\2013.2.0.0\mingw\bin

HTH,

Howard

Hi,

today I downloaded the Haskell platform for 32 bits Windows
(HaskellPlatform-2013.2.0.0-setup.exe) and installed it.

The first time I started GHCI all worked perfectly.

When I closed GHCI and later tried to start it again I constantly get
however:
C:\Users\Arie>ghci
GHCi, version 7.6.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done.
Loading package base ... ghc.exe: : Kan opgegeven module niet vinden.
<command line>: can't load .so/.DLL for:  (addDLL: could not load DLL)
WHERE Kan opgegeven module niet vinden MEANS Can't find the specified module

Any ideas?

Kind regards,
   Arie
