Explorations in Haskell as a platform

Note: I'm pretty new to Haskell, I've only experimented with it during COMP 524, and written some pretty basic functions.

So I decided I wanted to try to throw together a quick web server together with Haskell, but it's been a small disaster setting up the tools necessary.

OS: Ubuntu 12.10

The first thing I did was create a folder for my experiment, under ~/Documents/Code/haskell I then ran sudo apt-get install haskell-platform to get ghci and cabal, Haskell's package manager. I then wanted to create cabal sandbox, so I ran cabal sandbox init and this was the beginning of a two-hour struggle...
