Dear R friends, I am currently using Windows 8, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor. I have installed R version 3.4.1 "Single Candle".
Also, I have several packages installed in this path: C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4 Plus some other packages installed in this other path: C:\Users\PaulBernal\Desktop\DESTOP FILES\R Books C:\Users\PaulBernal\Desktop\DESTOP FILES\RPackagesNEW And I have installed R in the following path: C:\Program Files\R\R-3.4.1 Whenever I try to install an R package the following error messages are displayed in the R console: > utils:::menuInstallLocal() package ‘readstata13’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f747105765\readstata13’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\readstata13’ > utils:::menuInstallLocal() package ‘Hmisc’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f744781797d\Hmisc’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\Hmisc’ package ‘readr’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘hms’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f742a8422fe\hms’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\hms’ package ‘Hmisc’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f7456645222\Hmisc’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\Hmisc’ package ‘haven’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f746f04773d\haven’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\haven’ package ‘readstata13’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f741507f27\readstata13’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\readstata13’ package ‘readxl’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f74271b1a7a\readxl’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\readxl’ package ‘RcmdrMisc’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\file2f7419e243c1\RcmdrMisc’ to ‘C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\RcmdrMisc’ Do I have to put all the packages in the same path where I installed R? Could this be happening because I have packages installed in several folders with several paths? Should I consolidate and put all packages in a single location? Any help will be greatly appreciated, Cheers, Paul [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
