ghc-8.0.1 incomplete archive for x86_64-linux

[AshleyYakeley]

I set resolver: ghc-8.0.1 and did stack setup:

$ stack setup
Preparing to install GHC to an isolated location.
This will not interfere with any system-level installation.
Downloaded ghc-8.0.1.                                      
Running /bin/tar xf /home/ashley/Settings/stack/programs/x86_64-linux/ghc-8.0.1.tar.xz in directory /tmp/stack-setup18672/ exited with ExitFailure 2


xz: (stdin): Unexpected end of input
/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Unpacking GHC into /tmp/stack-setup18672/ ...

It looks like the file https://github.com/commercialhaskell/ghc/releases/download/ghc-8.0.1-release/ghc-8.0.1-x86_64-deb7-linux.tar.xz is broken.

Oops, should be fixed now. Unfortunately it looks like I've hit my large file upload limit on Github for the day, so I've changed it over to S3.

Got this error for lts 5.15 inside Ubuntu docker, not sure why

seeing this also on Fedora 22, 23, 24 and Ubuntu 14.4, 16.4 in Docker, not sure how to fix this

Very strange, it seems to work for me (on Ubuntu 14.04):

$ rm -rf ~/.stack/programs/x86_64-linux/ghc-7.10.3*
$ stack setup
Preparing to install GHC to an isolated location.

stack will use a locally installed GHC
For more information on paths, see 'stack path' and 'stack exec env'
To use this GHC and packages outside of a project, consider using:
stack ghc, stack ghci, stack runghc, or stack exec

So, I was testing this almost all day, trying to fix #2311 and it's sometimes works fine and sometimes broke, is that maybe because of S3 outages or something?

For what it's worth. I had a similar issue:

❯ stack setup

Edit; After a rerun this worked!
