Hi,
Forgive me, I don't use R normally, but I'm trying to help troubleshoot an issue for a faculty member. I tried searching solutions, but none of the ones presented on the internetz have worked.
I'm having trouble reading a csv from a URL using RStudio Cloud.
I can read the csv from the same URL using RStudio on the desktop just fine -- but it gives me an error using the cloud version.
If you need a project link, I can add one, but I've been using blank/new projects -- so there's nothing special about the setup.
educ_data<-read.csv("https://crooker.faculty.unlv.edu/econ441/data/education_wage_data.csv")
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection to '[link above]' In addition: Warning message: In file(file, "rt") : cannot open URL 'https://crooker.faculty.unlv.edu/econ441/data/education_wage_data.csv': HTTP status was '403 Forbidden'
I currently have the site forcing https, which some forums say is not supported -- so I removed the forced https on the site and tried with http, but it still didn't work.
The file permissions are set to world:read (although I have tried changing them to read/execute and it did not change the outcome).
Any ideas as to what could be happening? Why it works in RStudio desktop but not RStudio Cloud?
Thank you!
Pamela
