FYI, there appears to be a problem with RCurl on Windows, most likely due to building against an old version of OpenSSL. Or at least that's what Google tells me. Anyway, reproducible code:
> library(RCurl) > url <- "www.uniprot.org/mapping" > params <- c(from = "ACC+ID", to = "PDB_ID", format = "tab", query = "P31946 P62258") > getForm(url, .params = params, .opts = list(FOLLOWLOCATION = TRUE)) Error in function (type, msg, asError = TRUE) : error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version I sent the same to c...@r-project.org, which is the email for the maintainer. So they have been notified, but maybe somebody knows whomever is actually maintaining RCurl, and can pull a string? Best, Jim -- James W. MacDonald, M.S.
