similar to: Using download.file() to grab information from a Password Protected Website

Hello, I am using R version 1.8.1 on a linux machine (Suse 8.2.). I have problems to use readLines() with urls. This seems to be a problem with our proxy-server. Downloading files work with download.file() with wget but not without: > download.file(url = "http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES", destfile = "test.txt", method = "wget", cacheOK = FALSE)

Hello everyone, I get (reproducible) segfaults when I try to update my packages, and was wondering whether anyone knows why this might be happening. I am trying to update my packages: 1. I start R via sudo in a terminal 2. I type update.packages() - a Tcl/Tk list pops up, I select a mirror 3. R segfaults. Maybe I need to update to a newer version of R or something? Slightly OT, but does anyone

The patch below adds support for custom HTTP headers in download.file() and url(). My main motivation for this is performing basic http authentication. Some web sites do not support embedding the credentials into the URI itself, they only work if the username and password are sent in the HTTP headers. In fact specifying the username and password in the URI has been

Hello, I have been trying to download a pdf file but I only receive a blank sheets. I used the option internet2 in windows: Rgui.exe --internet2 but I recieved the same result.

Hello everyone, Is it possible to download data from password-protected ftp sites? I saw another thread with instructions for uploading files using RCurl, but I could not find information for downloading them in the RCurl documentation. I am using R 2.11 on a Windows XP 32-bit machine. Thanks in advance, Cliff -- View this message in context:

Dear all, as the bug # 7991 is flagged not-reproducible, let me give you some pieces of code, as I have the same or similar problem. The problem always shows up with the first example (a small text file) and only sometimes (but without obvious pattern) with the second example, which is a binary file. > download.file("ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/atcf/btk/bal012006.dat",

Dear R-Users, I think I have encountered a potential bug (or at least unwanted behavior), but I'm not sure so I wanted to post here first. Lately I've been encountering an error when running a package I put together. I have my package set up to check for updates when it loads but this error occurs and stops the package from loading: Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for

Hi there, I have had a problem with loading the package XLConnectJars_0.2-0.zip from the CRAN mirrors. The problem occurs when executing utils:::menuInstallPkgs() I have traced the problem down to the "download" internal command. It appears that files over approx 15 MB are being truncated. The exact point of truncation varies slightly but the truncation is on a 4096-byte boundary. I

I would like to download climate data files from PCMDI website using R. I tried this line below and I was not able to get the file mainly due to user name and password requirements. I am looking for help for setting up the user and password within R (or somewhere). I have read the FAQ but unfortunately I am a newbie on R and couldnt figure out how to do it.

First of all, I apologize for the triple post, but I did not see that the word wrap on the r-help list site would render my code unusable. So here it is again. Hoping that this time it will work if you cut and paste it in your Rgui. I have a program that works well in Rgui but that does not work in a batch file (Execution halted). Here's the code (it will work on your R, but you need

Hello, I've got a (P)ATA disk in a special frame. The disk itself supports UDMA-100 (and has an 80-ribbon cable), but the frame isn't compatible with that. By default, FreeBSD negotiates UDMA-100, and the console starts to fill with ICRC errors. In the past, I used a patch to ata-all.c that enabled the following entry in loader.conf to force the disk to UDMA-33, so it worked fine:

Dear all, I keep grab photos from one website. At first I show them the default user agent (WWW-Mechanize). But obviously they don''t like this behavior and ban the user agent WWW-Mechanize. So I have to forge an IE user agent. It works for some time. But the website administrator seemed to detect my behavior and banned me again. This time I can not bypass it by simply modifying the user
