You get an error saying that whatever you have downloaded is not
really a valid *.tar.gz file. This is most likely a download error.
You could try downloading the file manually and then use R CMD INSTALL
to install the package from Terminal (or use the "Install from local
file" under the GUI - if that option is still around :)

Hi,
I am writing to report the error when installed the package RMySQL.
I tried installing for like 5 times and it gives the following error
every time.
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
is it because all the downloading error or something else ?
I am running Mac OS X 10.5.3 with R 2.7.1.
thanks in advance.
best regards
