I can read an indexed, tar.gz vcf file remotely from macos, but not on linux nor from a current docker devel image.

The file is served by a Flask CORS range-enabled webserver. Problem can be reproduced with the 5 lines shown below, which succeed on macos, fails in docker with

[E::hts_open_format] Failed to open file https://igv-data.systemsbiology.net/static/ampad/test/chr2.vcf.gz

roi <- GRanges(seqnames="2", IRanges(start=127084188, end=127084203))
tabixFile <-  TabixFile("https://igv-data.systemsbiology.net/static/ampad/test/chr2.vcf.gz")
x <- readVcf(tabixFile, "hg19", roi)
dim(geno(x)$GT)  # 2 1894

works fine with macos (first sessionInfo()) fails with docker & linux (second session Info. error message in the latter:

*[E::hts_open_format] Failed to open file https://igv-data.systemsbiology.net/static/ampad/test/chr2.vcf.gz

Perhaps it's something in the devel version of VariantAnnotation that needs to be ironed out. But doesn't seem to be Linux specific

On bioc-devel Martin correctly surmised that readVcf(remoteFile) intermittently failed due to something wrong on our web server.

It turns out that we had some expired ssl certificates on the nginx server which dispatched to Flask.

The irregular behavior we saw - where readVcf worked in some settings, and failed in others - is apparently due to different ssl stringencies in different operating systems, including across different versions of linux.

I should have known better than to pin this on VariantAnnotation and Rsamtools.

Thanks to Jim and Martin for giving this some thought, nudging us in the right direction to find a solution.
