runhaskell setup configure [ installing]

Question

When I try to configure the Cabal-1.18.1.3 package I get the error:

Configuring Cabal-1.18.1.3... Setup: does not exist

My system is Windows 8 Pro x64, 2GB RAM, 1.7GHz dual core.\

tried: I have tried writing Setup as Setup.hs

Answer 1

I think it is a Cabal bug.

See: error when updating cabal

--> try using msys or cygwin.

I have submitted an issue: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1741

Edit: It might be caused by a local 64bits perl install. Reordering perl & the haskell platform in your path could solve the issue.
