In MacOS 10.12.3 (Sierra), I can't update packages (though it worked on the same computer in MacOS 10.11):
update.packages( lib = lib <- .libPaths()[1], pkgs = as.data.frame(installed.packages(lib), stringsAsFactors=FALSE)$Package, type = 'source') Warning: unable to access index for repository https://cloud.r-project.org/src/contrib: cannot open the connection Warning message: In read.dcf(file = tmpf) : cannot open compressed file '/tmp/RtmpS3f5mS/file959038dcc8eb', probable reason 'No such file or directory' --- My internet connection works fine; updating hasn't worked since I upgraded MacOS to 10.12 from 10.11. Confusingly, on a new MacBook Pro with 10.12.3 & R 3.3.3, updating works without error. It feels as though something changed in the upgrade and now I can't get to where I got before. I'd appreciate help in resolving this. --- Here's my configuration: R version 3.3.3 (2017-03-06) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0 (64-bit) Running under: macOS Sierra 10.12.3 locale: [1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets [6] methods base other attached packages: [1] HANDLS_0.30 zUtil_0.94 sysMods_0.01 [4] foreign_0.8-67 car_2.1-3 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] Rcpp_0.12.8 maptools_0.8-40 [3] splines_3.3.3 MASS_7.3-45 [5] xtable_1.8-2 lattice_0.20-34 [7] minqa_1.2.4 plyr_1.8.4 [9] tools_3.3.3 nnet_7.3-12 [11] parallel_3.3.3 pbkrtest_0.4-6 [13] grid_3.3.3 nlme_3.1-131 [15] mgcv_1.8-17 quantreg_5.29 [17] DBI_0.5-1 MatrixModels_0.4-1 [19] lme4_1.1-12 Matrix_1.2-8 [21] nloptr_1.0.4 RSQLite_1.0.0 [23] gsubfn_0.6-6 Matching_4.9-2 [25] sp_1.2-3 SparseM_1.74 [27] chron_2.3-47 sqldf_0.4-10 [29] proto_1.0.0 _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
