Hi Kirill, @krlmlr

I'm trying to test a CRAN package on multiple Windows architectures.
Please see: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Bioconductor/biocmanager

All builds seem to hang at the Rtools installation:

I don't think there's an issue with the yaml file:
https://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocManager/blob/master/appveyor.yml

Am I missing something here?

Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Marcel

Hi Kirill, @krlmlr
Any updates / suggestions on this? Thanks a bunch!

This is very strange, dplyr tests can install Rtools: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/tidyverse/dplyr/build/job/b2e9yglij341adni#L41.

You could try establishing an RDP connection to the AppVeyor builder and see what's happening: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/how-to/rdp-to-build-worker/.

I'm having the same problem, did you solve it @LiNk-NY ?

Thanks

I didn't solve it. I avoided the issue by not installing RTools, i.e., removing the InstallRtools line in the appveyor.yml:

install:
  ps: Bootstrap
