Hi.

I'm having a problem. I'm trying to update my bio conductor packages, but I can't. Since I understood that the first problem was making my R work with my institutional proxy, I've done this: https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200488488-Configuring-R-to-Use-an-HTTP-Proxy

However, now I am facing this problem

config <- "https://bioconductor.org/config.yaml"
readLines(config)

which returns:

Error in file(con, "r") :    cannot open the connection to 'https://bioconductor.org/config.yaml' In addition: Warning message: In file(con, "r") :   URL 'https://bioconductor.org/config.yaml': status was 'SSL connect error'

    traceback()
returns: 
2: file(con, "r")
1: readLines(config)

I have no idea what is causing this problem and how should I proceed

Many thanks

I've solved it by modifying the env variable. https_proxy=http://proxy.etc:8080

instead of https_proxy=https://proxy.etc:8080

which was wrong.
