Cannot install the labutil package

[Dan Eran]

Hey,

I'm trying to install the package 'labutil' using the command: ssc install labutil, replace.
I get the following error:

checking labutil consistency and verifying not already installed...
connection timed out
could not copy http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/l/lablog.ado
(no action taken)
r(2);

Any idea how I can overcome the issue?

Many thanks,
Dan

It's there and SSC is up as I write. Here's a guess. Your Stata can't see the internet fully. Perhaps help netio can help. For example, are you using your own copy or a networked version, e.g. at a university?

Turn on or off the use of a proxy server

set httpproxy {on|off} [, init]


Set proxy host name

set httpproxyhost ["]name["]


Set the proxy port number

set httpproxyport #
