Error in downloading Packages

[Stefan1971]

Hello,
trying to download packages I am getting the following error:

unable to access index for repository http://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib:
cannot open URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES '

This message also comes by trying other repositories. It doesn't matter which setting I have under Global Settings -> Packages.

As I am working in a company there may be some settings for out Proxy needed, but I don't know which one exactly needs so be set.

Can you please help me with this topic?

Thanks in Advance.
Stefan

If your connection is behind a proxy server you absolutely need the address and your credentials, once you have those (ask your IT department), you can follow these instructions to configure the access.
