Description
The check and update R packages command hangs under operating systems using proxy connection.
TXM commands using R functions are not available after hanging.
We may need to start R with this argument: --internet2,
using native operating system configuration, or implement a time out.
We now fully manage the proxy configuration, see #868
Validation tests¶
Devs must update a package on cran, e.g. : "textometry"
- run TXM on a proxy system
- call the "File\Check R packages" command
=> console output must be:
TBD

Win XP:
- there's already a time out, after waiting 32 minutes here is the log:
Update of 'textometry' failed (current version is still 0.1.1). Warning: Windows users need to restart TXM.
- then TXM works normally
#5 Updated by Sebastien Jacquot over 8 years ago
Temporary workaround to interrupt the package updating on Windows under proxy:
- start TXM
- when following message appears: "Updating the textometry (0.1.1) R package up to version 0.1.3"
- run the task manager and kill the "Rserve.exe" process
- in TXM execute "File\Restart engines"
- TXM should work normally
#6 Updated by Sebastien Jacquot over 8 years ago
The "check R packages" command is no longer executed at TXM start up.

After some new tests, this command hangs up TXM on proxy system but with no proxy configured in RCP preferences.
In this case, the R time out connection is used. Is there anyway to reduce the time out connection in R ?
And/or better, execute this command in a non blocking thread ?

[WIP]
We now give the system proxy settings to R/RServe, see #868.
We still need to validate the packages updating functionality on proxy systems.
install.packages("textometry", dependencies=TRUE, repos="http://cran.rstudio.com/");
in an .R session file seems to work well now, therefore "check R packages" should use this type of command (I mean without precising the method: curl, wget, etc.). I don't know the current method used for this command.
