Problem downloading spmap

[Mohsin Javed]

I am trying to install spmap. I use the following:

ssc install spmap

However, I get the following error:
file http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/s/stata.toc not found
http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/s/ either
1) is not a valid URL, or
2) could not be contacted, or
3) is not a Stata download site (has no stata.toc file).

current site is still http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/m/

Any idea on how to fix this?

ssc desc s

indicates that there is a problem with folder or directory s. I will email Kit Baum, the maintainer of SSC, to flag the problem.

Nick Cox: Thanks. The initial code worked.

Indeed; Kit fixed the problem, as just announced at https://www.statalist.org/forums/for...-archive-files

Hi @KitBaum, I encountered a similar problem today:


. ssc install spmap
remote connection failed
http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/s/ either
1) is not a valid URL, or
2) could not be contacted, or
3) is not a Stata download site (has no stata.toc file).

current site is still http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/e/
