We're using the Haskell HTTP package, so it might be worth trying to construct a cut-down test case using that. Using update with the -v3 flag should dump the http conversation which might give us some indication of which phase goes wrong.
That makes sense, but unfortunately I don't think I'm getting much useful information from the verbose version: Daedalus:Downloads jeff$ cabal update -v3 Downloading package list from server 'http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive' Sending: GET http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/00-index.tar.gz HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: cabal-install/0.5.1 Creating new connection to hackage.haskell.org cabal: recv: resource vanished (Connection reset by peer) Interestingly, the first time I tried accessing this (the tar file) from within Safari, it hung for a few seconds and I had to refresh the page. It now seems to always work from with Safari, even after quitting and resuming. Are there any other Haskell utilities that try connecting to the internet? Perhaps I should try one of those.
