autstat Support

hello,
I'm trying to install SExcel but I have some problems with rcom and rscproxy.

I start R as administrator and:
options(install.packages.check.source = "no")
install.packages(c("rscproxy","rcom"),repos="http://<<repo-user>>:<<repo-password>>@www.autstat.com/r-repo",lib=.Library,type="win.binary")

and the result is:
Warning: unable to access index for repository http://<<my-username>>:<<my-password>>@www.autstat.com/r-repo/bin/windows/contrib/3.5:
impossibile aprire URL 'http://<<my-username>>:<<my-password>>@www.autstat.com/r-repo/bin/windows/contrib/3.5/PACKAGES'
Warning message:
packages ‘rscproxy’, ‘rcom’ are not available (as a binary package for R version 3.5.0)

can you help me please?

thank you.

Dear Piero,

rscproxy for R 3.5 requires an update to statconnDCOM. The package update will be available tomorrow or Wednesday together with a new installer for scExcel.

Best regards,
Thomas

Hello !

I run into the same problem. I am running R 3.5.1


The information on CRAN is:

Package ‘rscproxy’ was removed from the CRAN repository.
Formerly available versions can be obtained from the archive.
Archived on 2017-04-07 as requested by the maintainer <thomas@statconn.com>.

I upgraded to R version 3.6.0, but I got the also the message that it is not available for version 3.6.0)

How to proceed ?

Christian

Dear Christian,

please use the setup and maintenance tool installed with scExcel. The binaries for our packages are not on CRAN.

Best regards,
Thomas
