The error gives the descriptor number as 8, so I don't think that's terribly likely :) Resource temporarily unavailable is the string that corresponds to the EAGAIN error, which is typically presented by operations that would block being used in non-blocking mode. I have no idea what would cause it to be a fatal error in a hGetContents call. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
