I try to install teradatasql as explained here:
https://github.com/Teradata/r-driver#Installation
However, it immediately throws this error:
install.packages('teradatasql',repos=c('https://teradata-download.s3.amazonaws.com','https://cloud.r-project.org'))
Installing package into ‘/home/ckiefer/RProjects/cki_new_db_interface/packrat/lib/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.2’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning: unable to access index for repository https://teradata-download.s3.amazonaws.com/src/contrib:
Line starting '<?xml version="1.0" ...' is malformed!
Warning message:
package ‘teradatasql’ is not available (for R version 4.0.2)
So, it cannot be installed for this version of R although it says that the package requires 64-bit R 3.4.3 or later?
Any help is appreciated.
BR, Christoph
Yes, the teradatasql installation should work okay with R 4.0.2. I just successfully tested it myself using R 4.0.2 for Windows.

I've installed devtools for R, but when I call the library with:
library(devtools)
I get the following output:
WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages, but is not currently installed.
Please download and install Rtools 3.1 from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/ and then run find_rtools().
So I executed the following code:
install.packages("Rtools", repos = "http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/")
And I get the following output:

I would appreciate any help that's out there to get Rtools onto my machine so I can call the devtools library. Thank you!

I am trying to install the package ggpubr using the command install.packages('ggpubr') but I'm getting the error:

Warning in install.packages :
dependency ‘cowplot’ is not available
I then tried to install the package cowplot using install.packages('cowplot') command and again I got the following error Warning in install.packages : package ‘cowplot’ is not available (for R version 3.4.4)
I searched for a solution and found a suggestion to use the following command:
devtools::install_github("wilkelab/cowplot")
and I got this error ERROR: this R is version 3.4.4, package 'cowplot' requires R >= 3.5.0
After a long time searching for a solution, I ended up having no perfect solution.
Can you please suggest me a way to avoid this error?
You have version 3.4.4 of R installed. The package cowplot requires version 3.5.0 or higher. You must upgrade your version of R.
Sometimes this is not possible (such as on a work network). In these cases, an alternative is to install an older version of cowplot that does not have that requirement. Of course, this means you are using an older version of the package. Archives are available on CRAN for older package versions.

When I am trying installing XCMS using command install.packages("xcms")
I got the following warning:
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/pma/Desktop/R3/packages’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘xcms’ is not available (for R version 3.4.4).
I can't find any reference to this problem in the forums,
can anyone suggest a solution? Thank you!
I should add that I am working in corporate environment cannot install updated versions than 3.4.4. I have already tried installing 3.3 version it did not work. I am using windows 10, R Studio Version 1.1.456
xcms is a package which is available through Bioconductor. Please see the website of Bioconductor on how to install xcms.
