Re: Network Exception

Thanks for the reply. I don't know if the problem is the same, but when I try to run this code: main = withSocketsDo $ do host <- getHostName putStrLn host the getHostName throws this exception: getHostName: failed (Successful WSAStartup not yet performed (WSANOTINITIALISED)) :( I'm using Windows XP Professional Sigbjorn Finne escribió:

Hi,

that error message is a bit confusing, to say the least: getProtocolByName identifies itself as getServiceEntry when failing. In this case, I'm quite sure, your snippet fails because (getProtocolByName "tcp") isn't successful. I've no idea why your /etc/protocols doesn't contain an entry for 'tcp'.

The error message in said function has now been fixed; thanks for the report.

Hi,

I've a problem, I'm using this code on GHC compiler version 6.4.1:

--- BEGIN --- module Main where import System.IO import Network

main = withSocketsDo $ do handle <- connectTo "localhost" ( PortNumber 8080 ) hSetBuffering handle LineBuffering hClose handle --- END ---

The problems is that it throws an exception at connectTo, the exception is:

getServiceEntry: does not exist (no such service entry)

The server and the port is correct, I have apache listening on port 8080 and if I put http://localhost:8080/ on browser it loads a web page.

Do somebody knows what it happens and how to fix it? thanks. _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
