Closed mbs2016 closed 5 years ago

mbs2016 commented 5 years ago

The following code snippet:

library(demography)

data <- hmd.mx("FRACNP",
               "xxx@xxx.com",
               "xxx",
               "France Civilian Population")

gives the following error message, although the username and password (in each case anonymised) and country label are correct:

Error in hmd.mx("FRACNP", "xxx@xxx.com", "xxx", "France Civilian Population") : 
  Connection error at www.mortality.org. Please check username, password and country label.
