> Fix R version to not the latest in AppVeyor
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-18190
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18190
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build, SparkR
> Reporter: Hyukjin Kwon
>
> Currently, Spark supports the test on Windows via AppVeyor but not it seems
> failing to download R 3.3.1 after R 3.3.2 is released.
> It downloads given R version after checking if that is the latest or not via
> http://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-release because the URL.
> For example, the latest one has the URL as below:
> https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/R-3.3.1-win.exe
> and the old one has the URL as below.
> https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/3.3.0/R-3.3.0-win.exe
> The problem is, it seems the versions of R on Windows are not always synced
> with the latest versions.
> Please check https://cloud.r-project.org
> So, currently, AppVeyor tries to find
> https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/3.3.1/R-3.3.1-win.exe (which
> is the URL for old versions) as 3.3.2 is released but does not exist because
> it seems R 3.3.2 for Windows is not there.
> It seems safer to lower the version as SparkR supports 3.1+ if I remember
> correctly.
