#267: cabal upload has poor error messages (just an HTTP response code) ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by ross): The CGI script uses `outputError`, which returns a response with a status header ''400 Error in upload'', with the error message (in HTML) in the body. Cabal upload is presumably ignoring the message because it wants plain text, but the CGI library doesn't offer that. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/267#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
