Thanks. You gentlemen please tell me what this means. In R (outside of
RStudio) I ran:
install.packages("aod")
Received a warning (and installation did not seem to go through).
Then I tried
install.packages("aod",repos='https://cran-archive.r-project.org')
Received a warning but it went on to try
https://cran-archive.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/3.0/aod_1.3.zip
and it worked. See log below.
I expect to continue to use R-3.0.3 for a while and I very much like
this to become a routine. Thank you all.

Okay, so it's not an RStudio issue. However, I'd guess setting options(repos = "https://cran-archive.r-project.org") at the start of your session could make everything work. (I'm guessing you currently have it set to "http://cran.rstudio.com", which is the source of the last warning below, probably due to an R bug. But since you're using an obsolete version of R, it shouldn't surprise you that it has bugs that nobody else is seeing.) Duncan Murdoch On 08/10/2020 11:54 a.m., Steven Yen wrote:> Thanks.

Sorry Gentlemen and all. Now this is becoming a joke (to me). I repeated
what I did earlier, with and without the option to set repos suggested
by Duncan. Now it does not work. I wonder whether it is dependent on the
mirror I chose, but I do not remember the one I chose earlier when it work.
I need your help, gentlemen, as I need to use R-3.0.3 for my task.
