Trouble installing glmmTMB

I was using glmmTMB on a cluster. It was working for several weeks. I logged on today and it says I need to install glmmTMB. So, I tried that, but R is giving me the error below.
The main part says: failed to lock directory.
Thanks for any advice.

Fail to install the "tidyverse" package

I am creating a plot using the ggplot() function in R Studio. For doing the job, I need to install the "tidyverse" package, but find installation failure. I will appreciate if you could solve the problem. The error messages are displayed in the console pane:

install.package() on RStudio on Amazon EC2 doesn't work. Package not available for R version 3.3.3

I've seen this: How should I deal with "package 'xxx' is not available (for R version x.y.z)" warning?
and been through the list. No luck. I've also navigated via SSH to my library to see if there was some LOCK file or corrupt install. There is nothing there.
I literally just installed RStudio on Amazon EC2 and can't install the any new packages.
I've done it this way: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/running-r-on-aws/
I've also used Ubuntu with Louis Anslett's AMI: http://www.louisaslett.com/RStudio_AMI/
I get the same problem in both. I have downloaded them manually and installed the tar.gz files from the temp directory. The CRAN repository seems to be fine because install.packages() downloads the tar.gz to /tmp/Rtmp2Rh9Zr/downloaded_packages/ just fine, but then the actual install process fails.
When I run install.packages("haven") for instance, it says
> install.packages("haven")

If you are providing an archive file to install.packages you may need to specify repos=NULL:
install.packages("/tmp/Rtmp2Rh9Zr/downloaded_packages/haven_1.0.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL)
On my EC2 instance, I ran into the same problems when trying to install packages on RStudio, e.g., car, that involve RAM-intensive compilations. This could be fixed by adding swap space as described here

Try starting R as follows: R --vanilla
See if you are pointing to a weird mirror. What is the output of getOption("repos")?
Try this: install.packages("BiocInstaller", repos="http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.13/bioc")
