QUESTION
I found this wonderful code on GitHub (https://github.com/rpodcast/nhl_analysis/blob/master/web-scraping/hockey-reference-boxscore-scratch.R), as I am new to R and more familiar to matlab, my goal was just to use the code to get the data I want. I just copied the code from his github, i imported every possible package. After executing the code in RStudio, i get this problem:
table.stats <- readHTMLTable(full.url, header=FALSE) Error: failed to load external entity "http://www.hockey-reference.com/boxscores/199511210BOS.html"
I tried to solve the problem with other Q&A from here, but wasnt able to. I tried to rewrite it using the httr-package instead of the RCurl package, but this doesnt work.
I really appreciate your help.

Answered 2019-Sep-10 at 17:38The codes you're using are last updated 7 years ago. And websites frequently change their HTML design, so codes are not guaranteed to work.
Use the following codes instead.
