Re: [R] some CRAN mirrors not accessible
Le 11/12/2011 18:57, Prof Brian Ripley a écrit : First, see the status links in the first para of http://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html . So it seems that the issue is not that the mirror is not accessible, but the part you are looking for is not current/available. yes indeed. For one "R for Windows" > "contrib" deny access, and for the other has no 2.14/ folder Second, the mirror list is http://cran.r-project.org/CRAN_mirrors.csv and that lists the maintainers. It is also in your R distribution, in directory 'doc' (but that is as old as your distribution, and mirrors do change). Got it ! Thanks. Also fubbling in the chooseCRANmirror() doc I also discovered that getCRANmirrors() returns a data.frame with the maintainer address; looking into the function it either straight reads http://cran.r-project.org/CRAN_mirrors.csv, and if no connection reads de csv file stored in the local directory 'doc'. Now the info about accessibility/availability has been conveyed to the maintainers.
