1 month ago Thank you for posting the issue! I have not seen this error before, but I'll help try to fix it.
There seem to be two potential solutions:
- You may be accessing Github behind a proxy, and the proxy is interfering with
remotes::install_github(). If this is true, there is some information about configuring the proxy at this link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17783686/solution-how-to-install-github-when-there-is-a-proxy. I included an example below. - You may be able to clone the Github and install locally. However, there are several Github repositories, I think this is not recommended. You would need to clone all Github repositories and install them in proper order. (jamba, colorjam, multienrichjam)
To configure your proxy, you may try:
library(httr)
set_config(use_proxy(
url="18.91.12.23",
port=8080,
username="user",
password="password")
)
remotes::install_github('jmw86069/multienrichjam')The proxy url should be defined by your local network. The username/password might not be necessary. There is a comment referring to "WPAD" that may be helpful for determining the proxy information.
This is just a guess. I suspect you cannot install any Github packages, so it might be useful to find the cause in your situation so that you can install other R Github packages in future.
For example you may confirm the problem by trying to install another R package through Github:
remotes::install_github("r-lib/rlang")If this command produces the same error, then you're unable to install anything from Github. (And it would show that this is a configuration problem, and not a "multienrichjam" problem.)
Other workarounds seem to involve using a specific DNS, or using another method to download files from Github.
I'm interested to see you solve the issue, please let me know how it goes! Thank you.

Hello author, I am a Chinese clinical medical student currently studying the intersection of bioinformatics and clinical medicine. However, for some reasons, I am unable to directly link to GitHub using R. I have tried many times but have failed. Could you please make Multienrichjam into an R package that can be easily installed? I would greatly appreciate it.
