Actually, all of those switches came in as i was trying to resolve this issue.I started with just R CMD check --as-cran. In fact, my Rprofile.site does have a similar statement and sets a proxy but it doesn't seem good enough for the CRAN checks.
### Rprofile.site contents Sys.setenv(http_proxy="http://proxy.mitre.org:80") local({ r <- getOption("repos") r["CRAN"] <- "http://watson.nci.nih.gov/cran_mirror/" r["MITRE"] <- "http://mcran.mitre.org" options(repos=r) }) options(help_type="html") ### few switches output c:\Users\itsme\Documents\anAwesomePackge.Rcheck>"c:\Program Files\R\R-3.2.0\bin\R.exe" C MD check --as-cran "../anAwesomePackge_1.0.0.tar.gz" * using log directory 'c:/Users/itsme/Documents/anAwesomePackge.Rcheck/anAwesomePackge.Rcheck' * using R version 3.2.0 (2015-04-16) * using platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32 (64-bit) * using session charset: ISO8859-1 * using option '--as-cran' * checking for file 'anAwesomePackge/DESCRIPTION' ...
