My current version of R is 3.6.3, there is no problem of installing packages
there. I also have no problem installing bioconductor packages with 3.6.3.?

But installing packages from biocondcutor failed as well on 4.0.2 (also tried
4.0.0 and failed, too)

Hi,

I downloaded R4.0.2 and installed it succesffully without any error. However,
when I opened up a R session (using x64) and tried to install packages, I got
the following error message:

Warning: failed to download mirrors file (internet routines cannot be loaded);

However, if I load up a session using i386 verson, then everything is ok - I can
install packages.

Can you and anyone suggest what is going on?

Thanks,
