Hi all.
I wrote the following test program:
bar x = x * x
on a Win32 (SP3) machine using the Haskell Platform and GHC-7.6.1 (standalone) and I have noticed the same frustrating errors. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Are you certain you have write permission for C:\? I'm not terribly with how Windows handles file permissions, but the error seems pretty unambiguous as to its cause. It's a little strange to be placing files like this in the root directory of a volume, anyways. Perhaps try this in a directory which you certainly have adequate permissions in (the Windows equivalent of $HOME perhaps. Wikipedia seems to think this is %UserProfile%). Cheers, - Ben
