Can't install the happstack tutorial

[MATTHEW MUNZ]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble installing the Happstack tutorial. Cabal is complaining about the dependency on QuickCheck [1]. I'm not familiar with cabal -- is there some workaround for this issue?

[1]
MATTHEW-MUNZs-iMac:happstack-tutorial matthewmunz$ cabal install
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: cannot configure Crypto-4.2.1. It requires QuickCheck >=2
For the dependency on QuickCheck >=2 there are these packages: QuickCheck-2.1,
QuickCheck-2.1.0.1, QuickCheck-2.1.0.2 and QuickCheck-2.1.0.3. However none of
them are available.
QuickCheck-2.1 was excluded because happstack-util-0.4.1 requires QuickCheck

QuickCheck-2.1 was excluded because MissingH-1.0.3 requires QuickCheck >=1.0

Hi all,

  I also tried runhaskell Setup configure and I get the following error. [1]

  cabal install happstack also doesn't work.  It fails because hsp won't install, and it looks like hsp won't install because trhsx is missing.  When I tried cabal install trhsx I get another error. [2]

  It seems to be a little difficult to get up and running with Happstack.  Any help would be appreciated.

AFAIK package trhsx is not used anymore. The trhsx program is inside
the hsx package now and this is all you need to install.

Rest of your mail is a mystery to me. For me "cabal install happstack"
just worked. I never tried to use tutorial, because I found simpler
way:

happstack new project myproject

The above shell command should create a standard GuestBook example in
myproject directory. It is quite easy to follow from then on. I
think... :)
