download_wordvecs() #5

Closed rochelleterman closed 2 years ago

Hey there,

I was unable to run download_wordvecs(). I received the following errors

Error in download.file(url, destfile = file.path(targetDir, filename)) : 
  download from 'http://gking-projects.iq.harvard.edu/files/glove.6B.200d.zip' failed
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In download.file(url, destfile = file.path(targetDir, filename)) :
  downloaded length 138870485 != reported length 240802656
2: In download.file(url, destfile = file.path(targetDir, filename)) :
  URL 'https://gking-projects.iq.harvard.edu/files/glove.6B.200d.zip': Timeout of 60 seconds was reached

Looking at the readme install directory, I can see the zip file but cannot unzip it. I ended up downloading manually, unzipping, and moving to the install directory. This worked.

Session Info below.

Thanks Rochelle,

My best guess is that this is a network issue (on either end). I'm able to replicate this issue on my system only by setting the timeout to a very low number such that only a fraction of the file is downloaded and therefore corrupted.

I recommend setting the timeout option to a higher number of seconds - for example options(timeout = max(1000, getOption("timeout"))) as suggested here
