Hi,
I am trying to download data off of this web site
http://www.eia.gov/oil_gas/petroleum/data_publications/wrgp/mogas_history.html
I used to set the proxy following code to set the proxy
Sys.setenv(wget="http://username:password@"proxy server":port")
You forgot the report the error after trying this line of code, the
error is expected to be
Error: unexpected symbol in "
Sys.setenv(wget="http://username:password@"proxy";
If you need double inner quotes, either escape them or use single outer
quotes as in:
Sys.setenv(wget='http://username:password@"proxy server":port')

I used the following code to download the data
GAS<-read.table("http://www.eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/xls/pswrgvwall.csv"; , sep="," ,
header="T")
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
unable to connect to 'www.eia.gov' on port 80.
Am I setting the proxy correctly?
Thanks for your help.
Arun
