Hi,
I get the following error while installing a package. Can someone please
help?

install.packages("memisc")
Warning in install.packages :
   argument 'lib' is missing: using 'C:/Users/ravi/Documents/R/R-2.15.0'
Warning in install.packages :
   downloaded length 8255 != reported length 200
Error in install.packages : Line starting '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLI ...' is
malformed!


OS? Version of R? Selected CRAN mirror?

Anyway: R tried to download the package but got an html page, obviously, hence either the mirror you are using is corrupted or somone in between (like some proxy?) delivers html pages rather than packages...

thanks
