Error installing markstat

[freeman chabala]

I am consistently receiving the following error when I attempt to install markstat. I already installed whereis and pandoc but cannot install markstat.

. ssc inst markstat
checking markstat consistency and verifying not already installed...
file http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/m/markstats5.zip not found

(no action taken)

Welcome to Statalist.

I cannot reproduce your problem - perhaps it was a temporary problem.

If you try again and it again fails, I would guess that the system or network you are using has some sort of security software installed that interposes the server 41.77.4.165 between your system and any download of a zip archive, which are not commonly part of SSC packages. Stata does not always handle URL redirection well, so this is a problem. You will want to talk with your IT support staff to see what you can do. Or you will perhaps have to point your web browser at http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/m and download the individual pieces of markstat listed by ssc describe markstat and copy them to the PERSONAL ado directory shown by the adopath command.

Thank you very much, William. The manual installation has worked.
