Hi Thanks again to Greg, and Prof Ripley. Greg, I was trying to send you an email, but has been unsuccessful. Speaking to someone from our IT deparment, I am trying to follow your advice to implement the settings to my computer (using Windows), by using Control Panel. I have selected System in Control Panel and chose System, Advanced tab, Environmental Variables, and created the user variables: http_proxy, with value 152.106.241.34:3128 http_proxy_user, with value user:pass (replacing these with my own username and password to connect to the internet via Internet Explorer. I have deleted R, rebooted the computer, and installed R again (NOT choosing Internet2). Then after opening Rgui.exe, I go to the Packages menu in the R console, and select "Set CRAN mirror". I choose one, but the R comes back with the following: R> chooseCRANmirror() Error in m[, 1L] : incorrect number of dimensions
Could you possibly think of a fix for this problem? (Maybe I should try setting System variables?)
