I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling quantmod. I've tried using both commands:

devtools::install_github("joshuaulrich/quantmod", ref="157_yahoo_502")
devtools::install_github("joshuaulrich/quantmod")

I get errors afterwards:

Error in fetch(key) : lazy-load database 'C:/Program Files/R/R-3.3.2/library/quantmod/help/quantmod.rdb' is corrupt

When I try to use getSymbols('AAPL'), I get the 504 error:

Error in download.file(paste(yahoo.URL, "s=", Symbols.name, "&a=", from.m, : cannot open URL 'https://ichart.finance.yahoo.com/table.csv?s=AAPL&a=0&b=01&c=2007&d=4&e=25&f=2017&g=d&q=q&y=0&z=AAPL&x=.csv' In addition: Warning message: In download.file(paste(yahoo.URL, "s=", Symbols.name, "&a=", from.m, : cannot open URL 'https://ichart.finance.yahoo.com/table.csv?s=AAPL&a=0&b=01&c=2007&d=4&e=25&f=2017&g=d&q=q&y=0&z=AAPL&x=.csv': HTTP status was '504 Maximum Transaction Time Exceeded'

Please let me know if there is a workaround here to get adjusted close prices, through Yahoo finance or another website.

  • `install.packages("quantmod")`? It's on [CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/package=quantmod). – Rich Scriven May 26 '17 at 00:29
  • The problem is that your attempt to install quantmod is failing. "https://ichart.yahoo.com" is the old URL that no longer works, not the new URL in the GitHub repo. – Joshua Ulrich May 27 '17 at 17:30
