yesod devel does not refresh site on windows

I am on windows xp.

I run yesod devel command during development and expect it to pick up any changes I make, and it does restart when I save a file.

But nevertheless my changes are not reflected in what is shown in the browser (when I refresh the page, for example, after editing the corresponding hamlet template).

Compiling the executable with cabal install and running it from the installation directory does show my changes.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT:

this is happening because yesod cannot "touch":System.PosixCompat.Files.setFileTimes: not supported: illegal operation.

Solution

  • this is happening because yesod cannot "touch":System.PosixCompat.Files.setFileTimes: not supported: illegal operation.

    I have opened a bug on that: https://github.com/yesodweb/yesod/issues/119
