Good afternoon, I'm trying to install a package with the "install.packages" command in RGUI, and get the following error message:> install.packages ("tidyverse")Warning: unable to access index for repository https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2017-05-01/src/contrib: cannot open URL '' Warning: unable to access index for repository https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2017-05-01/bin/windows/contrib/3.3: cannot open URL ' https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2017-05-01/bin/windows/contrib/3.3/PACKAGES ' Warning message: package ?tidyverse? is not available (for R version 3.3.3) Is there any documentation available that might document all the destination IP addresses that are involved when the "install.packages" command is ran? Our R server is in a part of the state network that has limited access to the internet, so I need to have outbound openings made in the firewall that will let the install.packages command access what it needs to access . Earlier I have coordinated with the firewall team to open ports 80 and 443 outbound from our R server to the 3 IP addresses that correspond to mran.microsoft.com, cran.microsoft.com, and www.stats.ox.ac.uk. I looked up these 3 IP addresses at network-tools.com. I think there might be additional IP addresses involved, because after these openings were made, I'm still getting the error message above.

Thanks Bert, I'll reference this repository to determine the firewall rules we will need. -- Tully Holmes Business Applications Analyst State of Wyoming Wyoming Community College Commission 2300 Capitol Ave., 5th Floor, Suite B Cheyenne, WY 82002 307-777-6832 On Mon, Aug 27, 2018 at 2:35 PM, Bert Gunter <bgunter.4567 at gmail.com> wrote:> The main CRAN repository is at: > https://cran.r-project.org/ > > A full list of repositories can be found under the "Mirrors" link there. > > Cheers, > Bert > > > > On Mon, Aug 27, 2018 at 1:19 PM Tully Holmes <tully.holmes at wyo.gov> wrote: > >> Good afternoon, >> >> I'm trying to install a package with the "install.packages" command in >> RGUI, and get the following error message: >> >> >> > install.packages ("tidyverse") >> Warning: unable to access index for repository >> https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2017-05-01/src/contrib: >> cannot open URL '' >> Warning: unable to access index for repository >> https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2017-05-01/bin/windows/contrib/3.3: >> cannot open URL ' >> https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2017-05-01/bin/ >> windows/contrib/3.3/PACKAGES >> ' >> Warning message: >> package ?tidyverse? is not available (for R version 3.3.3) >> >> >> Is there any documentation available that might document all the >> destination IP addresses that are involved when the "install.packages" >> command is ran?
