Following a successful install of the Haskell Platform on MAC
OSX, I proceed to update my Windows PC.
Frustration followed. I am blocked by a "Permission
Denied" error when I do a "Setup install":
>ghc --make Setup
[58 of 58] Compiling
Main (
Setup.hs, Setup.o )
Linking Setup.exe ...
>Setup configure
Configuring Cabal-1.8.0.4...
>Setup build
Preprocessing library Cabal-1.8.0.4...
Building Cabal-1.8.0.4...
Registering Cabal-1.8.0.4...
>Setup install
Setup: permission denied
>
I changed the permission on folders in the "Haskell
Platform" directories to "full control", without any effect.
I have searched the web for help but could not find my
problem. Can't help but think it is something trivial but what?
Help appreciated.
