I have tried the Network.Download library in order to download CSV files from Yahoo Finance, but after the 10th download every next download fails. Does Network.Download keep connections open? I did consume the result of the openURI function (even with deepseq). Any ideas?
Can you get any details about why/how it fails? It could well be something as simple as Yahoo throttling you for too many connections in too short a time or something; in that case, the error from Yahoo should indicate it, but if all you get back is a 4xx or 5xx code then it won't be obvious. (Which may well mean something like running it under strace with +RTS -V0 to see the actual error returned.) -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
