cabal -v3 update will give you a more verbose version of what is going wrong. cabal --help regrettably, cabal --help doesn't tell you this but there is always the man page I suppose. 2009/7/16 Tony Hannan :

Hello,

I'm on Ubuntu 8.10. I installed ghc 6.10.4 (from binary package: ghc-6.10.4-i386-unknown-linux-n.tar.bz2). I installed haskell-platform-2009.2.0.1 (from source package: haskell-platform-2009.2.0.1.tar.gz). It contains cabal-install-0.6.2.

Then when I run "cabal update", I get the following error: cabal: : openFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)

Any ideas?

Thanks, Tony

When I got the error, I deleted my (old) copy of ~/.cabal/config and it seemed to fix the problem.

I got around this problem by downgrading to 6.10.3 (I think I rebuilt cabal as well)

I'm not sure if the problem is with cabal, GHC, or some 64bit ubuntu library. (probably a combination of ghc+64bit ubuntu)

Does anybody have ghc 6.10.4 working on 64bit Ubuntu?

I'm using GHC 6.10.4 from HQ + Platform on Ubuntu Jaunty 64bit and don't have this problem. Let me know if you want to compare settings. Paulo

Did you by chance use the prebuilt ghc binaries? or build ghc manually? - Job On Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 5:23 PM, Paulo Tanimoto wrote:

Good question, I need to check that at home. Now that you mention it, I remember considering using a repository (PPA) somebody had put together, that had the latest GHC for Ubuntu Jaunty. I'm not sure I used it though. I'll get back to you. Paulo

It looks like I did go with GHC from a PPA: $ dpkg -l | grep ghc ii ghc6 6.10.4-1.0~ppa2 GHC - the Glasgow Haskell Compilation system ii ghc6-doc 6.10.4-1.0~ppa2 Documentation for the Glasgow Haskell Compil ii ghc6-prof 6.10.4-1.0~ppa2 Profiling libraries for the Glasgow Haskell $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ghc.list deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/someone561/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/someone561/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 Codename: jaunty $ uname -r -v -m 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:58:03 UTC 2009 x86_64 I definitely think we should file a bug report, because a lot of people have reported the same issue with Ubuntu Jaunty 64-bit, GHC 6.10.4, and Haskell Platform. Can anybody help providing the information? Or do we already have everything we need? Thanks, Paulo

I had the same issue, using the ghc 6.10.4 "generic linux" tarball on Ubuntu Jaunty x86_64. I attempted to install a newer Haskell Platform over the older one. I'm not sure what causes the issue. After several attempts to remedy it without success, I ended up completely reinstalling ghc and ghc-related things on my system, and not using the Haskell Platform. Drastic, but I don't get those cabal errors any more.
