I'm quite sure that is overridden 'R CMD check' when using the --as-cran flag. The workaround that I have found is to set environment variable: _R_CHECK_SYSTEM_CLOCK_=FALSE I have observed <http://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/etc/UTC> timing out a lot over the last couple of months from several different networks and hosts. I've seen it happen in the past too (last couple of years), but it has got considerably worse recently. Maybe they're throttling in per IP(?). I consider it quite unreliable these days, so I use _R_CHECK_SYSTEM_CLOCK_=FALSE by default now. /Henrik On Tue, Feb 4, 2025 at 5:50 PM Simon Urbanek <simon.urba...@r-project.org> wrote: > > Josiah, > > that test tests the accuracy of the system clock by querying > https://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/etc/UTC so my guess would be that you > have either network or proxy issues which cause that request to fail by > providing garbage instead of the actual response. > > The call to test yourself is > > readLines("http://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/etc/UTC";, warn=FALSE) > [1] > "{\"utc_offset\":\"+00:00\",\"timezone\":\"Etc/UTC\",\"day_of_week\":3,\"day_of_year\":36,\"datetime\":\"2025-02-05T01:42:19.272728+00:00\",\"utc_datetime\":\"2025-02-05T01:42:19.272728+00:00\",\"unixtime\":1738719739,\"raw_offset\":0,\"week_number\":6,\"dst\":false,\"abbreviation\":\"UTC\",\"dst_offset\":0,\"dst_from\":null,\"dst_until\":null,\"client_ip\":\"121.98.39.155\"}" > > It has to have the "datetime" entry.
