H2O 3.6.0.8 installation under Windows for R 3.2

[epe...@gmail.com]

Hi,

When I am trying to install H2O 3.6.0.8 from Cran on my Windows machine (install.packages("h2o")), I get the following error:

trying URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.2/h2o_3.6.0.8.zip'
Content type 'application/zip' length 46864381 bytes (44.7 MB)
downloaded 44.6 MB

Warning in install.packages :
downloaded length 46723072 != reported length 46864381
Warning in install.packages :
error 1 in extracting from zip file
Warning in install.packages :
cannot open compressed file 'h2o/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory'
Error in install.packages : cannot open the connection

Is the above problem known?

Thanks,
P

I've been hitting similar issues when trying to install both from CRAN and the h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com repos (see below). I've never had a problem in the past, but this is first time i've tried in a new org with new security policies.

Any thoughts or others with similar issues? Can't manually unpack the tar.gz that downloads either, throwing errors.

FYI still not sure why I get the issue referenced (I tried multiple mirrors on multiple days), but was able to use a workaround by:

1) downloaded the jar file from website (http://h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com/h2o/master/3468/h2o-3.9.1.3468.zip)

2) installed through R directly from the downloaded jar:
install.packages("C:/work/software/h2o-3.9.1.3465/R/h2o_3.9.1.3465.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")

This installed fine and is working.

if you have an older version of R, the version of h2o you see in cran is probably the one posted when that was the current version of R.

I was trying on R 3.2.3 the other day when i hit the errors, irrespective of whether I tried through CRAN (with different mirrors) or direct from the h2o repo ("http://h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com/h2o/rel-turchin/3/R). Coincidentally I was in the office, but it appears to work fine today if I try to install on a R-3.2.3 through CRAN from home, so maybe corporate security issues were the culprit. Working now at least, thanks.
