I am trying to install clusplus package (https://github.com/pablo14/coord_plot_usage) offline using the command

install.packages("C:/Users/SJ/Downloads/coord_plot_usage-master.zip", repos = NULL, type = "source")

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/SJ/Documents/R/win-library/3.3’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning in read.dcf(file.path(pkgname, "DESCRIPTION"), c("Package", "Type")) : cannot open compressed file 'coord_plot_usage-master/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory' Error in read.dcf(file.path(pkgname, "DESCRIPTION"), c("Package", "Type")) : cannot open the connection Warning in install.packages : running command '"C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-33~1.1/bin/x64/R" CMD INSTALL -l "C:\Users\SJ\Documents\R\win-library\3.3" "C:/Users/SJ/Downloads/coord_plot_usage-master.zip"' had status 1 Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘C:/Users/SJ/Downloads/coord_plot_usage-master.zip’ had non-zero exit status

I changed the type to "win.binary" from "source" but still it was not successful.

install.packages("C:/Users/SJ/Downloads/coord_plot_usage-master.zip", repos = NULL, type = "win.binary")

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/SJ/Documents/R/win-library/3.3’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning in install.packages : cannot open compressed file 'coord_plot_usage-master/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory' Error in install.packages : cannot open the connection

Since I am behind the firewall, I tried to change the config as below

set_config(use_proxy(url="http://----.com/proxy.pac", port=80))
install_github("pablo14/clusplus")
Error in curl::curl_fetch_disk(url, x$path, handle = handle) : 
  Failure when receiving data from the peer

Tried to install it by following the steps in How to install a package from a download zip file but was not successful. Got the message

Error in install.packages : zip file ‘coord_plot_usage-master.zip’ not found

Please let me know what I am doing wrong.Any help would be appreciated.

  • are you sure the proxy port is 80 and not 8080? and you should be using the download from here https://github.com/pablo14/clusplus not coord_plot_usage. the latter is an example usage of the `clusplus` packages – chinsoon12 Jan 31 '17 at 06:50
