Hello,

I encountered a problem when running ?R CMD check ?as-cran? at the step ?checking CRAN incoming feasibility?.

The error message is as follows:

* checking CRAN incoming feasibility ...Warning in read.dcf(con, c(.get_standard_repository_db_fields(), "Path")) :

  URL 'https://CRAN.R-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES.gz': Timeout of 60 seconds was reached



Does anyone know how to deal with this issue?



Thanks,

Yue

Have you checked on win-builder (with `check_win_devel()`)?

1: Absolutely
2: I forget
3: Not yet

Sele??o: 1

This is just your computer failing to communicate with CRAN.R-project.org. Could be a temporary problem with your connection or maybe on CRAN itself. This is not a problem with your package.
