Building fastcgi from hackage on windows.

I am using the cabal system to build the hackage version of fastcgi. I get the below messages with the "runghc Setup.lhs build" command. Network\FastCGI.hsc:59:21: fcgiapp.h: No such file or directory Network\FastCGI.hsc: In function `main': Network\FastCGI.hsc:200:0: error: `FCGX_Request' undeclared (first use in this function) It looks like I need the fastcgi sources. Where does this source come from? I didn't get any dependency messages when I did the setup config. Edward Ing

I had a similar problem about a month ago, but I can't remember *exactly* what I did to fix it. I think I made sure the following were installed (I'm pretty sure I ran cabal installs for all of them regardless of what ghc-pkg told me, and it worked) network-2.0 alex-2.2 HTTP-3001.0.4 cgi-3001.1.6.0 From my cabal build-log: package: fastcgi-3001.0.2 os: osx arch: i386 compiler: ghc-6.6 client: cabal-install-0.5.1 flags: -small_base dependencies: base-2.0 cgi-3001.1.6.0 install-outcome: InstallOk docs-outcome: NotTried tests-outcome: NotTried Sorry to be so vague, but I mainly remember swearing a lot at the screen until it worked.

Oh yes. I should mention that I am building this on Windows XP. I
build Network.FastCGI on Ubuntu and it worked because I was able to
install the libfcgi-dev (which had the libraries and the headers.)
My guess is that WIndows XP is the problem, and that the task of
building on XP is quite different. Where are include headers and
libraries found in Windows XP system? What fastcgi implementation
would you need for a Windows XP? These are the probably the important
questions.

From my cabal build-log:

I have this installed. The problem is that I have no binary version of
the Network.FastCGI. So to install it I am going through the cabal
process and on the build it seems to need the Fastcgi.h to build the
foreign interfaces (and probably the static libraries to link ?).
Unfortunately the Microsoft download pack doesn't have that - just the
.dll (or perhaps cabal can't find where the fastcgi.h are).

Hi Edward,
I have never compiled the fastcgi package on Windows myself, but my
best tip would be to try to install the FastCGI development kit (= C
headers and libraries), see http://www.fastcgi.com/#TheDevKit
