Error when running "stack install --test --coverage"?

Can this be reproduced with a publicly accessible repo?

[adinapoli]

To give you folks a bit more insights:

• I did call stack install --coverage without the --test flag
• This was a project I ported by not using stack setup but I manually created the stack.yaml
• The project doesn't have a test suite or a test folder altogether.

Is it possible that the hpc folder is created as part of the initial stack bootstrapping and therefore that's the culprit?

[mgsloan]

Ah, this actually turned out to be a rather trivial thing to fix. Not sure why the problem wasn't obvious before, perhaps because it has nothing to do with the main coverage stuff. Pretty sure that the issue is that it's trying to create an index of all the hpc reports by listing the contents of a directory. The directory doesn't get created if no reports get generated.

Can you still reproduce the issue? Does the commit I've just pushed fix it? Please close if so :D Thanks!

[adinapoli]

Hey @mgsloan , I will make sure to give this a spin as soon as I'll have a chance and report back (closing the issue in case). Thanks!

[adinapoli]

@mgsloan Close enough! Now I'm getting a slightly different error:

[mgsloan]

@adinapoli Hah, doh! Fix pushed.

[adinapoli]

Perfect, working as expected now! Thanks! Ps. I seems to not be able to close the issue! Please do!

[mgsloan]

Awesome, thanks for trying my fixes!
