Tried install_github("hfgolino/EGA", dep = TRUE) getting error "Installation failed: SSLRead() return error -9806"

[udl19]

Hello,

I used the above code (install_github("hfgolino/EGA", dep = TRUE) but got the following warning:

Installation failed: SSLRead() return error -9806

I repeatedly tried to upload the EGA package but didn't succeed; would you help me with that?

Ty very much!

This sounds like a curl problem, do you have the latest versions of curl and httr packages? If not, try updating them first.

Also, is your internet connection behind a proxy server or firewall?

I upgraded curl and httr packages but the problem remains: in fact, the whole message I receive is as follows:

As far as I know, the proxy server is not blocking any service in R...but, how can I be sure of that?

Thanks a lot

This is a completely different error, now your problem is that you have to update dplyr before installing EGA

install.packages("dplyr")

Also, you are using a fairly old version of R, if you update to the latest version (3.5.2) you'll have access to precompiled binaries which will make the installation process for several packages faster and simpler.

Wow, I tried it before posting my doubts and it didnt work - but now it did! I upgraded the "dyplr" package and the "EGA".

Thanks a lot

If your question's been answered (even by you!), would you mind choosing a solution? It helps other people see which questions still need help, or find solutions if they have similar problems. Here’s how to do it:

FAQ: How do I mark a solution?

If your question has been answered, don't forget to mark the solution! How do I mark a solution? Find the reply you want to mark as the solution and look for the row of small gray icons at the bottom of that reply. Click the one that looks like a box with a checkmark in it: [image] Hovering over the mark solution button shows the label, "Select if this reply solves the problem". If you don't see the mark solution button, try clicking the three dots button ( ••• ) to expand the full set of options. When a solution is chosen, the icon turns green and the hover label changes to: "Unselect if this reply no longer solves the problem". Success! [solution_reply_author] …
