build_site() returning an error : Error in readRDS(path) : error reading from connection

[xtimbeau]

I am building vignettes using quarto as the vignette builder.

When building site, I have an error. It occurs in build_home_index() more specifically in the function cran_link().
When commenting out line 209 of build_home_index.R, the error goes away and the building process completes.

No idea why it is occuring, nor why it is not occuring anymore.

I can try to build a reprex, but that was not systematic in the last days, I suspect it started after some packages update.

cran_link <- function(pkg) {
  if (!has_internet()) {
    return(NULL)
  }

  cran_url <- paste0("https://cloud.r-project.org/package=", pkg)
  req <- httr2::request(cran_url)
  req <- req_pkgdown_cache(req)
  req <- httr2::req_error(req, function(resp) FALSE)
  resp <- httr2::req_perform(req)
  if (!httr2::resp_is_error(resp)) {
    return(list(repo = "CRAN", url = cran_url))
  }

  # bioconductor always returns a 200 status, redirecting to /removed-packages/
  bioc_url <- paste0("https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/", pkg)
  req <- httr2::request(bioc_url)
  # req <- req_pkgdown_cache(req)
  req <- httr2::req_error(req, function(resp) FALSE)
  req <- httr2::req_retry(req, max_tries = 3)
  resp <- httr2::req_perform(req)

  if (!httr2::resp_is_error(resp) && !grepl("removed-packages", httr2::resp_url(resp))) {
    return(list(repo = "Bioconductor", url = bioc_url))
  }

  NULL
}

Likely a dup of #2696

You might try installing the dev httr2. This commit tried to address the above issue, but the error itself is a little hard to pin down.

This is also happening in the r-devel-linux automated CRAN checks.

This has also happened to me. I am also not sure why it happened, but I noted https://zenodo.org/ was down the day it happened and I use a README badge from them. As noted in #2676 (comment) I had to delete my pkgdown cache before I could successfully build a site again.

fs::dir_delete(fs::path(tools::R_user_dir("pkgdown", "cache"), "http"))

exactly the same and it is a duplicate of #2696 httr2 dev version does solve the issue. Le sam. 13 juil. 2024 à 00:32, Jay Hesselberth ***@***.***> a écrit :

Does it look like this error <#2696>?

Can you try installing this branch and the re-build your site?

pak::pak("r-lib/pkgdown@cache-path")

EDIT: Oh nm, I see httr2 dev solved it.

[jayhesselberth]

Addressed in #2715
