There was a notice earlier today about a power outage affecting the main
CRAN site..
For installing packages, try:
install.packages("packagename", repos="http://cran.wustl.edu";)
or to perform an upgrade:
update.packages(repos="http://cran.wustl.edu";)
until the main CRAN site has been resolved. You can also google for
alternate CRAN sites to use in the repos= area as well. Bioconductor I
believe is on it's own site, not affected by the outage.

Hi.
I recently upgraded my R installation to 2.11.0 on Windows XP (SP3) without
changing any firewall settings. When I attempted to update my package list,
the 'Select a mirror' took much longer than it normally did, and after I
finally selected the site, I saw:
--- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session ---
Warning message:
In open.connection(con, "r") :
unable to connect to 'cran.r-project.org' on port 80.
The only action I performed in a prior session was to download and install
several packages including Bioconductor.
Any idea what the problem might be?
Thanks,
Caitlin
