Rocker: install_github not working

Created on 12 Mar 2015  ·  3Comments  ·  Source: rocker-org/rocker

I am not able to install DT in my docker [rocker/hadleyverse] image

> devtools::install_github('rstudio/DT')
Downloading github repo rstudio/DT@master
Error in download(dest, src, auth) : client error: (403) Forbidden

Any ideas about how to solve this problem?

Thanks!

FTR I think this happened to hitting the GitHub rate limits from the given IP -- that's why it was resolved after connecting to a VPN.

curious, works for me. Can you try again? Can you install other images from github? Is the same command working for you outside of docker (e.g. not a connectivity problem?)

Also, please see our CONTRIBUTING.md guidelines which has some advice about helpful information you should provide so we can better troubleshoot your problem. Thanks.

Running ubuntu 14.04, and the latest rocker/hadleyverse image

Is some networking issue, but no clue what. I can do everything but install stuff from github (install libraries, access github.com, google, etc)

After connecting to a vpn i was able to install the package...

Thanks for you great work! This must be a problem on my side...
