There was a problem with the query... about rbien HOT 4 OPEN

Hi @fariadamasceno and @pierrolaloune ! Apologies for the slow response, @pierrolaloune (I've been busy with a ton of projects and travel so far this year).

@fariadamasceno this seems to be a server side issue. I know our lead developer has had to make some changes lately, but I had thought we were done with those for a bit. This issue seems to have arisen over night, as I was able to execute BIEN queries yesterday. I'll look into this.

@pierrolaloune , once we've got BIEN back working I'll take a look into your issue

@fariadamasceno: this was a server-side issue related to a POSTGRES update. The issue has been fixed and queries are now working as expected.

Hi Pierre, hi everyone,

I opted to include my message here instead of creating a new issue because the error I'm facing might be related to the problem @pierrolaloune encountered. @bmaitner, please let me know if it would be better to open a new issue instead.

I used RBIEN at the beginning of March for accessing SALVIAS data and it worked perfectly fine; thank you for such a nice resource! However, right now I am facing problems when querying to the server using any BIEN_ function.

For example, running the function BIEN_plot_list_datasource() returns the following error message:
Error in postgresqlNewConnection(drv, ...) :
RPosgreSQL error: could not connect [email protected]:5432 on dbname "public_vegbien": connection to server at "vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu" (128.111.85.31), port 5432 failed: Connection refused
Is the server running on that host and accepting TCP/IP connections?

I installed the package again, both from GitHub and from CRAN but it didn't solve the problem.

Could you please give me some guidance on how alternatively connect to the BIEN server?

Thank you a lot in advance!

@bmaitner, fantastic! Thank you for such a quick fixing! :)
