With the recent OS changes (windows 2000) necessitated by various worms, etc, I have now been receiving this error message when I run update and I am not sure how I can correct. >update.packages() >trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/PACKAGES' Error in download.file(url = paste(contriburl, "PACKAGES", sep = "/"), : cannot open: HTTP

This reminds me of a question I've never asked yet: Is there a trick to make this work when a username authentication is required for using the proxy? I need a user name and a password to connect to the Internet, and so I get: > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system x86, Win32 status major

This does seem to fix my problem: > Sys.getenv("http_proxy") http_proxy "http://gproxy1.pfizer.com/" > url("http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES",'r') description "http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES" class

This example is caused by R's messing with formula environments. That's explained in ?formula, but should it not be explained in ?model.frame ? Simple test: data <- data.frame(y=rnorm(100), x=1:100) testit <- function(formula) { weights <- runif(100) glm(formula, weights=weights, data=data) } testit(y ~ x) weights is looked for in the environment of the formula, not of

Guido has fixed Rterm hanging on Windows 2000 in interactive and --ess modes. The problem was that 'PulseEvent' doesn't work under 2000 as documented (and I can find nothing about this in MicroSoft's Knowledge Base except that it is known to happen under a debugger). The cross-compiled pre-release at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre now incoporates the fix, and we

It really is unclear what is claimed to be a bug here. But see https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2007-May/045592.html for why the bug is not in R: your old and new data do not match. Your fit is to a category. [The problem with the web interface to R-bugs was reported last week: it is being worked on.] On Mon, 30 Apr 2007, r.darnell at uq.edu.au wrote: > This is a multi-part

predict.lm has been broken by recent changes to the patched branch. It fails for all singular fits.

Hi to R developers. In the "Details:" section of "?levels", it would be nice including the following sentence, taken from a reply from Brian Ripley: If you set two levels to be the same label, they get merged. Granted, the "Examples:" section does have a terse comment and examples from which users may imply this behaviour. Yet, the documentation would be

To Brian Ripley, Thanks! Yes indeed, It functions if you hit return at the prompt 1: but this had to be done for five times! Later five packages were found named NA with the description NA NA but all the rest of the 'libraries' are there in proper order with names and descriptions.
