similar to: R won't use http_proxy (PR#3558)

OK, I really am struggling with this one! Forgive me if I am being stupid.... I am running R 1.7.1 on Suse Linux 8.1. I connect to the internet through a proxy so I have: IAHC-LINUX03:~ # echo $http_proxy wwwcache.bbsrc.ac.uk:8080 IAHC-LINUX03:~ # echo $HTTP_PROXY wwwcache.bbsrc.ac.uk:8080 just in case ;-) SO, i go into R and I get: >

Hi there, I''m a new to Rails and to Ruby too. I hope you can help with what hopefully is a simple installation problem. I have successfully installed version: C:\>ruby -v ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] I have successfully installed gem: C:\>gem --version 0.8.11 When I try to install Rails i get the following error: C:\>gem install rails --include-dependencies

Hi All, I have been trying to solve the issue of Xen-based Virtual Machines (as I described earlier); I have the problem of ethernet ports locked to a single Mac address in my lab--hence VM''s can''t communicate using bridging other than their own dom0. To further test/confirm, yesterday I took my laptop at home and connected to my Home-Hub (which issues DHCP based IPs); I

Dear R users, I'm starting to get acquainted with R. I've been reading the manual, and I understood that if I wanted to install a user written package on R, I could do it directly from the Internet, by typing the line install.packages("quantreg") in an R session. To my surprise this command did not work, nor did the command "update packages from CRAN..." from the menu

Hi I'm not having much luck today! Running Suse Linux 8.2, R 2.0.0, trying to install RCurl_0.5-1.tar.gz. Perhaps there's an issue with my C compiler, but I got some errors: IAHC-LINUX03:/usr/users/mwatson # R CMD INSTALL RCurl_0.5-1.tar.gz * Installing *source* package 'RCurl' ... checking for curl-config... /usr/bin/curl-config checking for gcc... gcc checking for C

Just installed R on a new machine which is on a server. I am trying to download packages but seem to have trouble with our proxy settings. I have read the 2.19 section in R for Windows and tried what was suggested (setting http_proxy) but that did not help (still cannot connect). I think my problem is that we do not have a fixed port but use instead autoproxy. Has anyone encountered this problem

Hi I can't get R to connect to the internet. I am running R 1.7.1 on Windows XP and whenever I try to download packages etc from within R using the internet, it fails. OK so I am behind a firewall and use a proxy server.... SO, if I go to my MS-DOS prompt and type: RGui.exe --internet2 everything works.... BUT i can't set up a shortcut for this as Windows (I hate Windows) complains

Hi R guru coders I wrote a bit of code to add a new column onto a "topTable" dataframe. That is a list of genes processed using the limma package. I used a for loop but I kept feeling there was a better way using a more vector oriented approach. I looked at several commands such as "apply", "by" etc but could not find a good way to do it. I have this feeling there

Yum using proxy that requires authentication and a Password that contains the two characters \/ fails normally I can get yum to work with a proxy that requires authentication when required by doing something like http_proxy=http://<my username>:<my password>@<proxy server>:<proxy server port> export http_proxy or by filling in the appropriate information in yum.conf.

Hi First a simple question to do with plot(). How do I change the x-axis labels on a plot? For example, I am plotting each row of a matrix, and I want each row to be a line on my graph. Simple really. Eg: plot(sg[1,], type="l") When I do this, the x-axis is labelled 1:38, as I have 38 columns in my matrix. When I do: plot(sg[1,order(sg[1,])], type="l") Ideally I would

OK, dumb question, and it is probably in the docs somewhere, but after 12 months working with R and quite a while looking at the docs, I still don't know (or have forgotten) how to replace all NA values in a matrix at once with some other value. I can do it column by column using is.na(), but I can't figure out how to do it for the whole matrix. My apologies, I am ashamed ;-) Michael

Hi, I've just installed a server with CentOS 4. This server is behind a proxy. I'm trying to import the RPM key. Already set http_proxy variable to: export "http_proxy"=http://proxy.xpto.com:3128 Truth is, command # rpm --import http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-4 just leaves me hanged. Any ideas ? Warm Regards, M?rio Gamito
