I am trying to read a GSE file and getting this following error.

gg = getGEO("GSE6929", GSEMatrix = TRUE)

but I receive the following error

https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/series/GSE6nnn/GSE6929/matrix/
OK
Found 2 file(s)
/geo/series/GSE6nnn/GSE6929/
Error in file(con, "r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning messages:

3: In file(con, "r") :

I am not sure if the issue is with the package or the version of R I am using. This is my sessionifo()
