Fine. > Warning: unable to access index for repository > http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows64/contrib/2.11 Actually this thing is the CRAN extras repository maintained by Broan Ripley which does not have any mirrors. R-2.11.x in 64-bit was the very first and interim 64-bit solution under Windows. With the release of R-2.12.0 we stopped supporting the 64-bit version of R-2.11.x since we can handle 64-bit much easier now. So please upgrade to R-2.12.x which will probably have the usual support again. Best wishes, Uwe Ligges > It is this site in problem? I tried another mirror with same result.
