Actually, that's not right: see ?url. All URI schemes start like
file:// . For Windows the help says
In this form the path is relative to the root of the filesystem,
not a Windows concept. The standard form on Windows is
‘file:///d:/R/repos’: for compatibility with earlier versions of R
and Unix versions, any other form is parsed as R as ‘file://’ plus
‘path_to_file’. Also, backslashes are accepted within the path
even though RFC1738 does not allow them.
Spaces should work, since it is R which converts this to a filepath (in
a real URI there are lots of restrictions and spaces need to be encoded
if the restrictions are enforced). But file:// URIs on Windows are a
minefield.

Hi everyone,
I've followed the instructions from R-Admin Section 6.6 for creating a
local repository. I've modified my Rprofile.site file to add the local
repository to my repos, but I haven't been able to successfully
install my
package from the repo.
Here's the code that I've run.
##
sessionInfo()
getOption("repos")
setwd("Q:/Integrated Planning/R")
list.files(path = ".", recursive = TRUE)
tools::write_PACKAGES("bin/windows/contrib/2.15", type = "win.binary")
list.files(path = ".", recursive = TRUE)
install.packages("RTIO")
install.packages("RTIO", repos = "Q:/Integrated Planning/R")
install.packages("RTIO", repos = "Q:/Integrated Planning/R", type =
"win.binary")
unlink(c("bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES","bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES.gz"))
And here it is with output included:

I'd really like to be able to use "install.packages("RTIO")" without
having
to specify the repo, as this will make it easy for our other less
experienced R users.
Any ideas why I get "warning: cannot open compressed file" and "error:
cannot open the connection"? As far as I can tell, I've followed the
R-Admin 6.6 instructions exactly.
If it matters, Q: is a mapped network drive.
