apt-get update' returned a non-zero code: 100 about shiny

[krlmlr]

FWIW, I was able to work around this problem by adding RUN apt-get update || apt-get update to my Rockerfile.

I use, when this problem
apt-get update; exit 0 ^_^

That happens once in a while, also with other containers and is not under our control.

I cannot suggest anything better than re-running apt-get update. I sometimes remove the offending index file.

I suggest we close this for lack of anything actionable.

@eddelbuettel ;-) should this be reopened then? I had a PR in #22. I'm not sure what went wrong with it.

@rvernica The problem was that it caused build failures. See my comment on that PR.

[rvernica]

@shanFitGit I have a PR pending, #23, which should fix this. Since it is not yet merged, you can try basing your image off rvernica/shiny https://hub.docker.com/r/rvernica/shiny/ The image is build from this repository but with my patch applied.

[rvernica]

Maybe the r-base image should be based of a stable debian image like debian:jessie instead of debian:testing. This might make the repositories more reliable.

[eddelbuettel]

Nope, and that has been discussed at considerable length -- see some of the the closed issue tickets (and we apologize for those being scattered over several related Rocker github repos).

We often want current software and stable does not give that. And as an aside, repository server timeouts have nothing to do with the content you request from it ...

@eddelbuettel FYI, this issue seems to arise fairly frequent...

@rvernica Thanks for blaming me personally ;-) Would appreciate a PR fixing it.

[eddelbuettel]

@rvernica Let's just agree to disagree.

I am facing the same issue for last few days, and even after trying multiple times, I am not able to build a container derived from rocker/shiny. It was working earlier.
