ok thanks.  But still, how can I tell it to look at fpcomplete instead? And why does it do so automatically on one machine but not on another?

Hi Simon,

Hackage on haskell.org is down: https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/b99cef/hackage_downtime/

Small problem.  I’ve installed cabal-3.0, and say “cabal update”.  But I get

Unexpected response 502for http://hackage.haskell.org/timestamp.json

 

And indeed, that’s what a web browser says for that same URL.

 

What do to?

 

Oddly, on another also-new Windows machine, I do exactly the same thing, and with ‘cabal update –v’ I can see that it gets the same error, but then moves on to try hackages.fpcomplete.com, which works.

 

Why does the behaviour differ?  And, at least for now, how can I get the first machine to look at hackage.fpcomplete.com?

 

Thanks

 

Simon
