[GHC] #13400: realgcc.exe do not run GHCi in Windows in a particular case
#13400: realgcc.exe do not run GHCi in Windows in a particular case ------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: vanto | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 8.0.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: x86 | Type of failure: Other Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: ------------------------------+---------------------------- First, I start GHCi with a memory card insert in the slot of the computer. GHCi run ok. Second, I stop running GHCi and I remove the memory card. Third, I restart GHCi and a message appears in a window "realgcc.exe there is no disk - insert a disk in drive D:". When I reinsert the memory card, GHCi run again. Realgcc.exe is in the directory c:ghc-8.0.2\mingw\bin.

What were you doing with the drive? I don't quite understand what the memory card has to do with he bug report. Were you trying to open files on it before? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13400#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I don't understand why GHCi would be using the card at all. In all likeliness this error is coming from a different process. GHC as a whole never produces errors using messageboxes, so this error does not originate from it. It is also a standard Windows error produced by explorer. So I will close the ticket as invalid. However if you can show the error does somehow come from GHCi then please re-open. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13400#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

It has a hardcoded path that happens to coincide with the path of your memory card[1][2]. Easiest way around this is to change the drive letter of the memory card to something else.

This path ended up being hard coded into the binary and it's checked when compiling things. This results in the following access: [[Image(https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1177385/23966480/683f0300-09b3-11... -8c6e-e1003d53402d.png)]] Because of this, you guys with `D:\` mapped to a removable drive get the dialog. This is a bit out of our control. But it seems that the `GCC` that will be used for the upcoming `GHC 8.2` release uses `C:\building`. Since in 99% of the cases everyone has a fixed drive on `C:\` if it's available, then it should work. So for now, I can recommend a workaround of changing the removable storage from `D:\` to something else, or wait for `GHC 8.2.1`. This is about as fixed as it's going to get. We'll try to keep an eye out in the future for what the build directory is. But we don't build `GCC`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13400#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
