Comment:

 The network package builds with a ./configure script and requires the
 right setup to build.  Because of this it is included in the Haskell
 Platform.  The particular issue you are running into here isn't a GHC or
 Cabal problem.  It looks like some of the constraints in happstack have
 not been updated to match the latest Haskell Platform release.  Some
 comments in the cabal file seemed to indicate that hslogger depends on the
 earlier network version.  The following might work for you (the last line
 by itself might work, but I didn't try it that way):

 {{{
 cabal install hslogger
 cabal install happstack-server -fnetwork_2_2_3
 cabal install happstack --constraint=network==2.3.0.2
 }}}
