RE: GHCI crashes without error message

It seems that the problem of the spontanious crash in ghci, without an error message, occurs because I use a wrong buffering strategy on a handle:

When I include the line hSetBuffering handle LineBuffering in my program, the program crashes at random moments, without error messages. When I comment it out, it works ok. The handle in the above example is a socket. My program is a web server.

You're probably encountering the SIGPIPE problem. If you set SIGPIPE to be ignored and the problem still persists, then can you boil down the problem case to something we can reproduce? Cheers, Simon
