R failed to find 'stats' and 'utils' packages in M1 mac - r

When trying to open R (I tried to install and reinstall all available versions of aarn64 for the M1 chip) I get the following error message:
During startup - Warning messages:
1: package ‘utils’ in options("defaultPackages") was not found
2: package ‘stats’ in options("defaultPackages") was not found
tried to look for the .libPaths() and I can see the packages in the library.
Thanks for the help!

Perhaps your path in .zprofile is being altered? I had this issue today, with a non-system Python install modifying .zprofile. I commented out the PATH in .zprofile, sourced it, and then re-ran R without the errors.

How to solve expss package loading problem

I would like to install the expss package but it keeps returning an error.
Looked around for other with similar problems and tried re-installing several packages but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have a suggestion how to fixed the problem?
So far i tried re-installing:
install.packages("stringr")
install.packages("knitr")
install.packages("checkmate")
install.packages("htmlwidgets")
install.packages("htmltools")
install.packages("htmlTable")
install.packages("expss")
But Rstudio keeps returning with and error :
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘expss’:
object 'mtfrm' not found whilst loading namespace 'expss'
Error: loading failed
Execution halted
ERROR: loading failed
* removing ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1/Resources/library/expss’
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘expss’ had non-zero exit status
The downloaded source packages are in
‘/private/var/folders/cl/5_wnd4b14y7b40zc80n1r3wdkcnbkn/T/RtmpdcLWsn/downloaded_packages’
According to this issue, the current version of expss won't install in versions of R before 4.2. This has recently been fixed in the development version. You could try:
updating your version of R to version 4.2 (probably the simplest solution if you don't need to keep an older version of R)
installing the development version of expss from GitHub: first install the remotes package, then remotes::install_github("gdemin/expss")
install an older version of expss (remotes::install_version("expss", "0.11.1"))

Cannot install the shiny package in R

I am trying to install the shiny package in R but I keep getting this error:

package 'shiny'

2: In install.packages("shiny") :
installation of package ‘shiny’ had non-zero exit status
If anyone has had this issue in the past I would appreciate the help.
Thanks
Try installing the dependency packages:
install.packages(c("later","promises","rlang"))
After thereafter try to install shiny again:
install.packages("shiny")
Let me know if it works.
I updated r:
install.packages("installr")
and then: updateR()
This made the package run.
Unfortunately, the suggested solution did not solve my case as
I detected the point of glitch as I attempted to install promises, which was magrittr seemed not installed. It was found in the error message lines.
Thus, install.packages("magrittr").
Then promises was installed and httpuv as well.
shiny is now installed normally.
Issue resolved.

Problems trying to install package in R

I am having problems trying to install the nnet package in R. The download seems to be ok, but when I load the library it states
namespace ‘nnet’ is imported by ‘car’, ‘effects’ so cannot be unloaded
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘nnet’ was built under R version 3.2.5
Error in library(nnet) : Package ‘nnet’ version 7.3.11 cannot be unloaded
I tried reading other topics which suggest using remove.packages on car and effects. However I tried this and I am still unable to install
Thanks for the help
Try unloadNamespace('effects') before trying library(nnet).

Issue installing rJava on aix7.1.3

I have installed the 32bit version of R 3.1.1 on AIX 7.1.3
I am in the step of installing the rJava package from the R shell using the command: install.packages("rJava")
However, I am getting this error:
Warning: unable to access index for repository http://cran.utstat.utoronto.ca/src/contrib
Warning messages:
1: In open.connection(con, "r") : unable to resolve 'cran.r-project.org'
2: package 'rJava' is not available (for R version 3.1.1)
It seems that R is unable to connect to the internet to download the package.
I have tried several mirror sites.
Any idea how to resolve this issue in AIX?
Is there also an alternative option to install rJava manually not through the install.packages() R command?
You could try to compile the package with devtools:
install.packages('devtools')
devtools::install_github('s-u/rJava')
Make sure to have the correct javac in your path.

Causes of "Error: package '_____' was built before 3.0.0: please re-install it" in R

On one computer running R 2.15.2 I have installed packages from a .zip file (these packages happened to be ggplot2 and data.table, but I don't think the specific package is my issue.) Everything works fine. I took these packages to a computer without an internet connection and installed them. This other computer is running R 3.0.1. The packages seemed to install without a problem (using R's "install package(s) from local zip file" option). When I call the packages with the library(), I get the following error:
Error: package '<insert name of newly installed package here>' was build before 3.0.0: please-re-install it
Can anyone explain potential causes for this error to be thrown? Are there particular directories that the .zip packages must be in for a proper install? If R is installed on a separate partition from where the .zip packages were loaded, could this cause the error?
I'm at a loss, any pointers are greatly appreciated. This is a difficult one to reproduce; if you need any other version/system parameters to understand the problem, please don't hesitate to ask.
I found this solution while look at GitHub ggplot2 issue #796
update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
It will update all the packages that need to be reinstalled.
Running install.packages("codetools") can fix this issue for R 3.0.2, if you have the same problem like me:

I installed shiny according https://github.com/rstudio/shiny-server/wiki/Ubuntu-step-by-step-install-instructions
and got the same error at the step
sudo su - -c "R -e \"install.packages('shiny', repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')\""

I tried the answer by Richard Lee by starting R

and got the error

Would you like to use a personal library instead? (y/n) n
Error in install.packages("shiny") : unable to install packages
obviously no write permission, so
sudo R
Now I tried again
install.packages("shiny")
and got a number of errors
Error : package ‘codetools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘RJSONIO’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘caTools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘bitops’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘digest’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘xtable’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Each time I got an error, I re-installed the requested package
install.packages("codetools")
install.packages("RJSONIO")
etc.
and eventually, I was able to install Rccp, httpuv, and even shiny.
Now it works!!

I am using rkward on precise
I had a similar error using rkward. Specifically this one:
'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
I temporarily changed the permissions for this directory so that rkward could run this from its console:
update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
all to fix this:
Error: package '' was build before 3.0.0: please-re-install it
so that (sigh...) I could fix 'default' configuration for audio on precise. I couldn't use play() etc. in rkward.
That just needed phonon-backend-gtstreamer
I tried to install swirl on R(v3.1.0) on ubuntu 12.04LTS:

But faced a similar error:

Doing following helped me:

library("swirl")

I hope the same may help fix your installation issue.
Here is the work-around that I used:
I installed the latest version of R on an internet-capable computer. I then loaded the my required packages (Packages->install packages->select mirror->select package...
After R is finished installing, it displays a message of where the temporary .zip package is located. I navigated to this location, grabbed the temp package, and burnt it to a cd.
In this way, I could get the newer package build onto a computer without internet access. I would still be interested to know if there is an easy way to rebuild a package downloaded on an early R version to make it compatible with the latest version (without needed an internet connection).
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction #JoshuaUlrich
