Hi all,

a student of mine has reported an error when trying to install a package from the gretl server yesterday evening. Initially I thought he has a problem with a certificate on his WIndows machine because he got the error code 60.

However, just trying it on my Ubuntu machine returns:

cURL error 28 (Connection timed out after 20002 milliseconds)
Terminated on error

Trying to click through the GUI to the packages in the server, returns:

cURL error 6 (Could not resolve host: gretl.sourceforge.net)

The gretl package site works, however, and also downloading a gfn file is possible:

https://gretl.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/gretldata.cgi?opt=SHOW_FUNCS


Best
