I have installed tinytex into RStudio, and yet when I attempt tp knit to PDF, I get the following error message:

I have tried uninstalling tinytext and reinstalling it; no dice. I have made certain tinytext is loaded; nothing. Any suggestions are very welcome. Thank you.

I am using Rstudio in windows 10. I am triying to create a pdf from a .tex file. However, when I compile the PDF, the following error appears:
Running pdflatex.exe on file_name.tex...failed Error running C:/Users/user_name/AppData/Local/Programs/MiKTeX/miktex/bin/x64/pdflatex.exe (exit code -1073740791)
I am using a native installation of R, Rstudio and MikTeX. Not an envioronment with anaconda or similar.
If you are using RStudio, have you tried tinytex instead of MikTeX? In the Tools Menu>Global Options>Sweave, tick "use tinytex for compiling .tex files". Then install tinytex package. After installing tinytex package, write in console "tinytex::install_tinytex()". This will install the latex compiler tinytex. Try compiling your tex file using it.
I think that issue has to do with missing packages. In fact, MiKTeX doesnt preinstall most of them. I recommend to compile with TinyTeX, because it shows where the compilation stops (as I said, due to a missing package typically required in some sty file). This way you can track which are the missing packages and install them on the MiKTeX Console one by one.
I posted about this issue in an open discussion on Github. Drop the link here in case you need more details.
After compiling, I got the following messages:
Error message

It seems that you don't have a Latex installation in your machine. I suppose you're running with a linux distribution, try from the terminal to install the complete texlive package to avoid potential issues related to Latex installation:
~$ sudo apt-get install texlive-full
I've just installed RStudio and I want to knit a pdf document and I get this error message red:

I've tried installing the "knitr" package, and run this:
install.packages("knitr")
library(knitr)
tinytex::install_tinytex()
but still getting the same error.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Ivan.
So you've tried this.
install.packages("knitr")
library(knitr)
tinytex::install_tinytex()
But try this instead. You need to have the tinytex package to use it's install function.
install.packages("knitr")
library(knitr)
install.packages("tinytex")
tinytex::install_tinytex()
I always run into that same problem. Try knitting it to .html, opening the .html file, and then exporting the .html file to pdf.
I was trying to use Rmarkdown fro the first time to generate a pdf and got error messages.
I tried to download texlive from here http://www.tug.org/texlive/acquire-netinstall.html
" install-tl-unx.tar.gz (4mb) " but i don't quite get the instruction to install and not sure if it is the right solution for my issue.
Error I got:

I have downloaded pandoc, and I have also downloaded TexLive and have installed them both onto my computer. For the life of me I cannot figure out why R wont recognize that Ive installed them, and knit into a PDF.
Please help!
For Mac OS X, if you have installed TexLive (I installed so through homebrew caskroom) you should have pdftex available via command line.
type 'which pdftex' to make sure something shows up. from there, i created a symbolic link into my $PATH, specifically into my /usr/local/bin (which is where all my homebrew stuff is stored) with:
ln -s /usr/texbin/pdftex /usr/local/bin/pdflatex
from there, using knitr in RStudio and R in general seemed to work and rendering R Markdown is definitely a really beautiful option (check some of the templates too like the Tufte one!)
I had the same problem, after downloading mactex through FireFox and installing the package.
I quit and restarted RStudio, and it worked (no changes at the terminal command line level).
The .pdf output is, however, a bit blurry at least on my first attempt.
I had a similar issue as I wasn't able to knit pdf file & solved it by installing & running tinitex packages using those commands in the console -- not the terminal
install.packages("tinytex")
tinytex::install_tinytex()
