We are currently getting the following error when trying to install dependencies in our build pipeline

On further investigation I seem to be getting 500 errors (actually the basic nginx error page) when navigating to https://packagemanager.rstudio.com/ in my browser. The status page doesn't mention that the service is down but it looks like it is?

Thanks,
Liam

Same issue. No response from the server both when trying to download packages from R nor when trying to access RStudio Package Manager from the browser.

Thanks for verifying it's not just me :slightly_smiling_face:

Worryingly the status page doesn't seem to think anything is wrong https://status.rstudio.com/

As of December 2 2021, on https://status.rstudio.com Package Manager looks operational but installing packages from rspm repo does not work and when i try to enter RStudio Package Manager it hangs.

Didn't know about that or how it works, but it made me check my apps on shinyapps.io and one of them is not spinning up either.

It's been like this for the last 10 minutes

EDIT: it works now! so the issue is isolated to RPM, not all their services

Can confirm that http://packagemanager.rstudio.com/ is currently down and folks are looking into this. Will update on this thread.
