cabal unable to handle redirect - haskell

I am trying to install cabal behind a firewall without success.
It seems that cabal does not support http redirect,
is there a way to fix it?

Follow #Sibi suggestion, I pasted a similar experience using cntlm-0.92.3.
Here is my config config.ini:
Proxy proxy.swmed.edu:3128
Listen 127.0.0.1:53124
I first tried to use:
./cntlm -c config.ini
then the same error happens:

NOTE: this question is not the same as authentication, as our proxy server does not need to be authenticated. This question is about http redirect problem.
(Update) June 23, 2014
Run the following command as #Sibi suggested:
./cntlm -M http://www.google.com -c config.ini -v
And the output can be found at http://pastebin.com/zAvZBDVu

Reading the logs, we see the proxy was via https not http, and the error was "unsupported scheme" since cabal prior to recent versions did not handle https. Https transports have been added to cabal in the most recent versions, so the issue should now be resolved.

HTTP GET request forbidden 403 error while using netcat

So, I have to get http://www.rssweather.com/wx/in/kanpur/wx.php with using netcat.
My code goes like this.
nc -v rssweather.com 80
GET http://www.rssweather.com/wx/in/kanpur/wx.php HTTP/1.0
GET http://www.rssweather.com/wx/in/kanpur/wx.php HTTP/1.1
Connection: close
And, the result-
HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Date: Thu, 03 Sep 2015 12:41:08 GMT
Server: Apache
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html
charset=iso-8859-1
You don't have permission to access /wx/in/kanpur/wx.php
on this server.
Is there any way to overcome this Forbidden 403 error? What am I doing wrong?
You've already connected to the webserver at rssweather.com so you must not specify the full URL in the GET request, just the path:
nc -v rssweather.com 80
GET /wx/in/kanpur/wx.php HTTP/1.0
<blank line with return>

Too Many Redirects on OpenShift after push

I have a node.js application running on openshift. After testing my code on a local environment I pushed it up to my instance on openshift. After doing so, I went to check those changes on the public site and my browser reported that I was getting too many redirects. I tried to look at my haproxy status and even that was getting too many redirects.
I have done some investigation and here is what I've found:
I checked my nodejs logs and my node server started successfully (no errors)
I've ssh'd into my machine and ran curl -vvv $OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_IP:8080 and I was returned my index.html as I should.
When I run curl -vvv http://minutepolitics-minutepolitics.rhcloud.com/ I get this response:
RESPONSE:

Also, when I ssh into my machine and run /etc/init.d/haproxy start the output is: Starting haproxy: [ALERT] 294/230821 (134951) : Starting frontend main: cannot bind socket [FAILED]
From here, I don't know what to do or try to get this working again.
Any and all help will be greatly apprecaited! Thanks!!

I have a problem with my server redirecting http://www.mylesgray.com:8080/ -> http://www.mylesgray.com/.
Here are my Nginx default and fastcgi_params config files:
https://gist.github.com/1745271
https://gist.github.com/1745313
This is rather a nusance as I am trying to run a benchmark of Nginx w/ caching vs Varnish w/ caching on top of Nginx to see if there is any performance benefit of one over the other.
As such I have straight Nginx w/ caching listening on port 8080 and varnish on port 80 which forwards any non-cached requests to Nginx on localhost:8080, so obviously what I want to do is run an ab benchmark on http://www.mylesgray.com:8080/ and on http://www.mylesgray.com/ to see the difference.
Here are the results of curl -I on various addresses.
# curl -I http://www.mylesgray.com:8080

Then running curl -I http://www.mylesgray.com gives:
# curl -I http://www.mylesgray.com

So as you can see 80 is served by Varnish and 8080 by Nginx but I cannot find anywhere anything that does a 301 redirect, not in nginx.conf or in the sites-enabled/default file and I don't believe it is caused by Wordpress itself but an very much open to correction.
Please help, this is driving me nuts!

You should add a '/' at then end of your URLs. Furthermore if you run ab http://foo.com it will return you a "ab: invalid URL" error. If you do "ab -t 10 http://example.com/" everything will work fine. You should always use '/' in your URLs otherwize your webserver will try to redirect the page to the home page automatically for you which generates an undesirable extra load on the server and some extra bytes on the wire.
You web server told you what it did:
'/' is missing and something is incorrect with the port numer:
# curl -I http://www.mylesgray.com:8080
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
[...]
======> Location: http://www.mylesgray.com/
'www' and '/' are missing:
# curl -I http://mylesgray.com
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
[...]
=======> Location: http://www.mylesgray.com/
[...]
'/' and 'www' are missing:
# curl -I http://mylesgray.com:8080
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
[...]
========> Location: http://www.mylesgray.com/
'hope that helps :)
The presence of an X-Powered-By: PHP header means that wordpress is issuing the 301. It's due to wordpress forcing www.mylesgray.com. When you use a nonstandard port, user agents will generally include the port in the Host: header. Try adding
fastcgi_param HTTP_HOST $host;
with the rest of your fastcgi_param directives (or alog with your "include fastcgi_params;") and it should fix this.

Question on authentication in curl command

When I run the below curl command with --negotiate option I get the following error. Any idea why?

I am able to open the site normally from the browser etc. Why I am I not able to authenticate here? Can someone help me understand
Two things you can try:
Remove --head. You seem to want to send a GET request, not a HEAD request.
Don't forget to provide the credentials as with this example: -u pierre:secret

thanks a lot :)
Did some further digging for you and found the root cause is due to misconfigured routers. You can read about it all here.
The workaround that article mentions is to:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_default_win_scale
However, this file has changed and on newer setups you need to instead:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling
You will need to be root when running that though.

FWIW, I can get the page just fine using wget or curl from MacPorts.
