Error cabal update: "Unsucessful HTTP code: 404"

Hi, I have a big problem with a fresh installation of the Haskell-Platform 2013.2 on Windows 7. When I try to run `cabal update` I get the following error message: "|Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org cabal: Failed to download http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/00-index.tar.gz : ErrorMisc "Unsucessful HTTP code: 404" When I try ||`wget http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/00-index.tar.gz`everything works alright. I'm using no proxies or something like that. Maybe someone know whats going wrong? A parallel Windows-XP installation of the platform works fine. Vaniax |

haskell.org seemed to be altogether down the other day. Perhaps the second
one worked because you tried it later? Did you try the cabal command today?
As of at least right now haskell.org is working for me.

Mhh, I tried it two hours ago with the same result. Am 18.11.2013 00:42, schrieb Dan Krol:
