Issue created Oct 27, 2013 by Henk-Jan@trac-Henk-Jan

Permission denied when copying file to current directory with copyFile

While the MS-DOS command

C:\tmp\b>copy c:\tmp\a\x

runs successfully, the Haskell equivalent

copyFile "c:\\tmp\\a\\x" ""

results in

copyFile.hs: .\.copyFile584.tmp: copyFile: does not exist (Het systeem kan het opgegeven pad niet vinden.)

The Dutch explanation says: "The system can not find the specified path"

copyFile "c:\\tmp\\a\\x" "."

results in

copyFile.hs: .\.copyFile3960.tmp: copyFile: permission denied (Toegang geweigerd.)

The Dutch explanation says: "Access denied"
