I receive an error when installing RQDA on Windows 10.
I had run RQDA successfully, then a package wouldn't load and I deleted and tried to reinstall RQDA with these instructions: http://rqda.r-forge.r-project.org/.
Since then, I receive errors pointing towards RGtk2 and GTK+.
I tried loading RQDA both using the newest and older versions of R and RStudio. I tried on 3 different Windows computers.
Here is the link that shows the RQDA package was recently archived:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RQDA/index.html
The archive points towards requiring gWidgets, so I made sure the library of gWidgets loads successfully, which it does, as does library(gWidgetsRGtk2).
I also took care to install RTools4.0 for R 4.0.0 (https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/).
I made sure GTK+ is on my PATH. (Path: %GTK_BASEPATH%\bin;) (GTK_PATH: C:\GTK).
I also tried loading RQDA and dependencies manually, but that's a never ending process.
Here is the error I receive:
Failed to load RGtk2 dynamic library, attempting to install it.
Please install GTK+ from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win64/gtk+/2.22/gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101229_win64.zip
If the package still does not load, please ensure that GTK+ is installed and that it is on your PATH environment variable
IN ANY CASE, RESTART R BEFORE TRYING TO LOAD THE PACKAGE AGAIN

# Install package

unlink(pkgFile)
An received the same RGTk2 error loop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I've got RQDA working in Windows after:
install.packages(c("gWidgets", "RGtk2", "igraph","plogr","bit","RSQLite"),depen=T)
To install "gWidgetsRGtk2" it was needed:
Download GTK+: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.22/gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101227_win32.zip
Create an empty folder like c:\opt\
Unzip the content of that file in the folder created. You'll have something like c:\opt\gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101227_win32. The name of this folder can be changed.
Then add c:\opt\gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101227_win32\bin to your PATH
To add the bin folder to the PATH: right-click on "My Computer" and select "Properties", then "Advanced" tab, then "Environment Variables". Select the "PATH" variable and then "Edit" Add "c:\opt\gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101227_win32\bin" to the items in the PATH variable.
PS. Make sure you have no other versions of GTK+ in PATH.
So You can run the following code:
url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/gWidgetsRGtk2/gWidgetsRGtk2_0.0-86.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "gWidgetsRGtk2_0.0-86.tar.gz"
download.file(url = url, destfile = pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgs=pkgFile, type="source", repos=NULL)
Once the "gWidgetsRGtk2" is installed, you can run the following command to install RQDA:
install.packages("RQDA",repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org", type="source")

We've been discussing this issue at : https://github.com/Ronggui/RQDA/issues/38
Some have reported success installing it and have given feedback on how to do it.
Some contributors are working to port RQDA to gWidgets2. May be one of their solutions works for you.
Good luck.
After I gave the answer above I tryed to install it my self and this was as far as I've got using RKWard 0.7.1b, on VM with MsWins10.
https://rkward.kde.org/
with R 3.6.3 in RKWard library (I had RQDA working before. So I uninstalled RKWard and deleted the library directory on C:\Program Files):
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/3.6.3
and RTools35
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/history.html
also installed.
install.packages(c("gWidgets", "gWidgetsRGtk2", "RGtk2", "igraph","plogr","bit","RSQLite"),depen=T)
update.packages(ask = FALSE, checkBuilt = TRUE)
library(RGtk2)
Selected GTK+
Restarted RKWard
Installing ""RQDA_0.3-1.tar.gz", type = "source"", gave me an error: "Failed to load RGtk2 dynamic library, attempting to install it". But by chance, I just saw the post by #JanMarvin and it worked!!!
install.packages("https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/RQDA/RQDA_0.3-1.tar.gz", type = "source", INSTALL_opts = "--no-multiarch")
Then I ran:
update.packages(ask = FALSE, checkBuilt = TRUE)
And then
library (RQDA)
And it worked!!
If anyone could please refine it or give other suggestions as how to install it on MsWin, would be very much appreciated!
Thanks to #sjewo and #JanMarvin for their hard work!! porting this package to R 4.
These steps update the previous to install RQDA. I'm using Windows 10, and this code was run on April-17, 2021:
Use R version 3.6.3, 32 bits. If possible, also install Rstudio;
Run install.packages("gWidgets", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org");
Run install.packages(c("RGtk2","igraph","plogr","bit","RSQLite","cairoDevice"),depen=T);
Run library("RGtk2") . An error message will appear, asking you to install GTK+. Select it and press OK;
Restart R. Then run library("RGtk2") again to see if everything is OK;
Create the folder C:\GTK;
Go to https://download.gnome.org/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.22/ and download the file gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101227_win32.zip in C:\GTK;
Unpack the downloaded file in C:\GTK;
Go to the System environment and add to system variables C:\GTK\bin to your PATH;
Restart Windows;
Run the following code:
url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/gWidgetsRGtk2/gWidgetsRGtk2_0.0-86.1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "gWidgetsRGtk2_0.0-86.1.tar.gz"
download.file(url = url, destfile = pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgs=pkgFile, type="source", repos=NULL);
Finally, run install.packages("RQDA",repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org", type="source");
Enjoy!!!
FWIW, I've written a package called RQDAassist that I and my team use to help with RQDA, including installing the CRAN archive on R 4.0. Check it out and if there's any problem, do post an issue. To do the step-wise installation of RQDA
RQDAassist::install()
That's it.
Also, I noticed that active development is ongoing by RQDA maintainers, so I expect (hope) this issue to be resolved soon.
I have successfully installed Rtools and devtools but am getting an error message when I try to install papaja from github
I have already tried:
1) Reinstalled both R and Rstudio so I have the latest versions.
2) Googled the error message but no answers.
3) Downloaded the papaja package from github and tried installing it from my local hard drive
4) unzipped it and re-zipped it with 7-zip, then tried to install it again from local hard drive
Code used is:
devtools::install_github("crsh/papaja")
But installation does not complete. Error message I receive is:
Error in utils::download.file(url, path, method = method, quiet = quiet, :
cannot open URL 'https://api.github.com/repos/crsh/papaja/tarball/master'
I had to install H2O R package on an offline server. I created a local repo via miniCRAN and tried to install the package from it but installation failed with this error:
Error in download.file(md5_url, destfile = md5_file, mode = "w", cacheOK = FALSE, :
cannot open URL 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/h2o-release/h2o/rel-vajda/3/Rjar/h2o.jar.md5'
Error : unable to load R code in package ‘h2o’
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘h2o’
* removing ‘/usr/lib64/R/library/h2o’
I circumvented this by manual transferring of installed binaries from an online server but this is obviously just a workaround. So is there a normal way to install H2O R package on an offline server?
The R install package is embedded in the zip download file.
This will work, assuming all the dependencies have also been downloaded and installed.
(Of course, substitute the specific version that you want.)
wget https://h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com/h2o/rel-weierstrass/2/h2o-3.14.0.2.zip
unzip h2o-3.14.0.2.zip
cd h2o-3.14.0.2
cd R
R CMD INSTALL h2o_3.14.0.2.tar.gz
You have to have h2o.jar already downloaded.
Then set environment variable like so:
Sys.setenv(H2O_JAR_PATH="_your_h2o_installation_path_/h2o.jar").
This worked for me.
First download the h2o package archive and get the Jar file then set up H2O_JAR_PATH using this command
Sys.setenv(H2O_JAR_PATH="/home/hadoop/R/h2o.jar")
Finally,
install.packages("~/R/h2o_3.20.0.8.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source")
library(h2o)
