[Bioc-devel] Install and check error in Windows without any relevant message

4 messages · Hervé Pagès, Ramon Diaz-Uriarte

Dear All,

I package I maintain (OncoSimulR), which has not experienced any changes in
the last week, has failed Install and Check (but not Build or Build bin) on
Windows
(https://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/OncoSimulR/riesling1-install.html
https://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/OncoSimulR/riesling1-checksrc.html
).

However, I do not know what to do given the error output. For Install the message is

curl: (52) Empty reply from server


And for Check is just

* checking whether package 'OncoSimulR' can be installed ... ERROR
Installation failed.
See 'D:/biocbuild/bbs-3.13-bioc/meat/OncoSimulR.Rcheck/00install.out' for details.
* DONE

Status: 1 ERROR
See
  'D:/biocbuild/bbs-3.13-bioc/meat/OncoSimulR.Rcheck/00check.log'
for details.

curl: (52) Empty reply from server


I do not use curl in the code. Is this a problem fetching dependencies or a
problem caused by a package I depend on?


Thanks, 


R.

To partially answer myself, on looking more carefully, the INSTALL problem
seems to happen in the call to curl.exe (i.e., not in the R package
installation itself per se). It seems this failed

C:\cygwin\bin\curl.exe -O http://155.52.207.165/BBS/3.13/bioc/src/contrib/OncoSimulR_2.99.94.tar.gz

even if the tar.gz is actually there. Can I assume this is probably a
transient error?



And if I understand correctly the CHECK error ("Installation failed.
See 'D:/biocbuild/bbs-3.13-bioc/meat/OncoSimulR.Rcheck/00install.out' for
details") it can also be traced to a curl problem?

Best,

Hi Ramon,

This looks like a communication problem between riesling1 and nebbiolo1. 
Hopefully this is something transient. Fingers crossed!

Cheers,
H.
