MRAN seems to be down

[Civis-agarcia]

Tried to access the package yesterday, at 2019-11-10 02:10:31 AM, but met with following error in log:

Warning: unable to access index for repository https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2019-07-05/src/contrib: 
2019-11-10 02:10:31 AM
cannot open URL 'https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2019-07-05/src/contrib/PACKAGES'

Has anybody else had problems accessing this package?

The Microsoft CRAN time machine seems to be down. Currently, unable to install any package.

Hi, I'm trying to access one of your snapshots, but it seems to be down again. This is the warning that I get:

`Warning: unable to access index for repository https://mran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2019-07-05/src/contrib:

PS: thx a lot for providing MRAN! It is seriously awesome:)

yes, it's down again :( any updates?

[vonGameTheory]

Yep -- MRAN down since at least yesterday

[rsmith54]

working again for us, but is this the correct location to post these issues for the future?

[vonGameTheory]

Yeah, starting working again. I'm not sure there is a correct location since Microsoft seems to have abandoned R Open. Gonna have to switch to regular R distro soon...

I seem to be getting this error on my Linux distribution but not on Windows. I haven't had any issues installing packages from MRAN, just using setSnapshot or checkpoint(). Any suggestions?
