Hi Robert,

sorry for the delays
Sometime download.file() failed to download the file and I would like to remove the correspond file.
No answers, but a couple of additional questions:
1) Does the issue persist if you close R or does the file remain locked against deletion?
no, if I close R then I can remove the file
2) If so, is there a related process in the task list if you use CTRL-ALT-DEL?
nothing special a part from R studio
3) Does print(e$message) yield any useful information when it hangs?
I have an url to access the pages of .tiff documents. The issue that I don't know how many pages have each documents. So I try to copy and incrememt the index for the number of pges until it failed. I know it is not an idea solution but this is I have now until we get this info into a DB.
Would debugging in R Studio shed additional light?
I will give a try.

Thanks
Cheers
Fabien
