#8261: Windows Testsuite stuck at configuring timeout ------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: leroux | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Test Suite | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: x86 | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------+--------------------------------- When running the testsuite, it gets stuck at {{{Configuring timeout-1...}}}. I tried adding a verbosity flag to the ENV vars, but they didn't make any affect on the {{{./Setup}}} args. Relating to my development setup...I've followed the instructions from http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Preparation/Windows (using MinGW). I was rather surprised when I was building GHC, it threw an error saying that "libmpfr-3.dll" was missing, so I fetched that from a cygwin mirror and threw it in {{{msys/bin}}}, but even after doing that, I got errors saying that it could find certain cygwin libraries ({{{cyg*.dll}}}). So I just installed the entirety of cygwin and it started working fine. The only ticket I found that is related to this is #1599, but I'm not sure. ---- System details: {{{ # Windows 7 x86 (32-bit) $ uname -a MINGW32_NT-6.1 LEROUX-WINBUILD 1.0.18(0.48/3/2) 2012-11-21 22:34 i686 Msys $ echo $PATH /c/MinGW/bin:.:/usr/local/bin:/mingw/bin:/bin:/c/Program Files/Haskell/bin:/c/Program Files/Haskell Platform/2013.2.0.0/lib/extralibs/bin:/c/ Program Files/Haskell Platform/2013.2.0.0/bin:/c/Windows/system32:/c/Windows:/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v 1.0/:/c/Program Files/Haskell Platform/2013.2.0.0/mingw/bin:/c/Program Files/Git/cmd:/c/Users/leroux/AppData/Roaming/cabal/bin:/mingw/bin:/us r/bin:/c/cygwin/bin }}} ---- Here's the testsuite run: {{{ $ make test WAY=normal make -C testsuite/tests CLEANUP=1 OUTPUT_SUMMARY=../../testsuite_summary.txt fast make[1]: Entering directory `/home/leroux/devel/ghc- validate/testsuite/tests' make fast=YES make[2]: Entering directory `/home/leroux/devel/ghc- validate/testsuite/tests' Looks like you don't have timeout, building it first... make -C ../timeout all make[3]: Entering directory `/home/leroux/devel/ghc- validate/testsuite/timeout' rm -rf install-inplace 'C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/leroux/devel/ghc-validate/inplace/bin/ghc- stage2.exe' --make Setup ./Setup configure --with-compiler='C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/leroux/devel /ghc-validate/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2.exe' \ --with-hc- pkg='C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/leroux/devel/ghc-validate/inplace/bin/ghc- pkg.exe' \ --with- hsc2hs='C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/leroux/devel/ghc- validate/inplace/bin/hsc2hs.exe' \ \ --ghc-option=-threaded --prefix='C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/leroux/devel/ghc- validate/testsuite/timeout/install-inplace ' Configuring timeout-1... }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8261 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
