I tried to install emacs and in an attempt to install MELPA, tried:
(this is my init.el
file)
(package-initialize)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/"))
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/"))
(require 'package)
(let* ((no-ssl (and (memq system-type '(windows-nt ms-dos))
(not (gnutls-available-p))))
(proto (if no-ssl "http" "https")))
(add-to-list 'package-archives
(cons "melpa" (concat proto "://melpa.org/packages/")) t))
(package-initialize)
When I tried running the following commands
M-x package-initialize
then M-x package-refresh-contents
, it said that it Failed to download 'gnu' archive. Is there anyway of getting around this?
I'm using MacOS and using emacs version 26.2.
