When I try to render an R Markdown file to pdf, I get the following error:

Try other LaTeX engines instead (e.g., xelatex) if you are using pdflatex. For R Markdown users, see this
Error: Failed to compile PLSC_final_proj.tex. See https://yihui.name/tinytex/r/#debugging for debugging tips. See PLSC_final_proj.log for more info.

I have tried the following to resolve the issue but I cannot work around it;
{r message=FALSE}
in all the r chunks, and, changed the line latex_engine: xelatex to the YAML header
title: "Document 6"
output:
pdf_document:
latex_engine: xelatex
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I downloaded the latest version of RStudio and then upgraded to pandoc 2.1 because I wanted to control the custom table setting in the output .docx file.
However, in the previous version of pandoc with RStudio (1.9) the following YAML produced the correct .docx file:
---
title: "Report"
author: "Me"
date: "`r format(Sys.time(), '%B %d, %Y')`"
output:
word_document:
reference_docx= ../support/word/rmd_styles.docx
toc: true
fig_caption: true
---
But when I upgraded to pandoc 2.1 (and verified it in RStudio console with):
> rmarkdown:::find_pandoc()
> as.list(rmarkdown:::.pandoc)
$version
[1] ‘2.1’
The reference to the .docx file in the YAML above no longer works and I get the following error:
--reference-docx has been removed. Use --reference-doc instead.
Try pandoc.exe --help for more information.
So when I switch reference_docx to reference_doc (not sure if that is correct?) I get the following error:
--reference-docx has been removed. Use --reference-doc instead.
Try pandoc.exe --help for more information.
Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 2
In addition: Warning message:

Hopefully I am just using the incorrect syntax in the YAML but I'm not sure what's going on. Any help is greatly appreciated!
I was having this issue with the rmarkdown package 1.6 and I solved it by updating to rmarkdown 1.8. You may do so by executing the following code
install.packages('rmarkdown')
and the loading it by executing
library(rmarkdown)
Mac Os: 10.11.6
R version: 3.3.1
MacTex: 2016 / TexLive: 6.2.2
RMarkdown: 1.0.9014

Pandoc: 1.17
RMarkdown fails to knit PDF when latex commands such as:
\textcolor{blue}{Character String}
are present in the .rmd file. The error output is:
/usr/local/bin/pandoc +RTS -K512m -RTS test.utf8.md --to latex --from markdown+autolink_bare_uris+ascii_identifiers+tex_math_single_backslash --output test.pdf --template ~/R/3.3/library/rmarkdown/rmd/latex/default-1.17.0.2.tex --highlight-style tango --latex-engine /Library/TeX/texbin/pdflatex --variable graphics=yes --variable 'geometry:margin=1in'

pandoc: Error producing PDF
Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 43
Execution halted
Inclusion of an r code chunk with echo = TRUE such as:
```{r, echo = TRUE}
# I am a glitch
```
in the .rmd file allows for the successful creation of the PDF document.
If all r code chunks in the .rmd file are set with echo = FALSE or equivalent statements, the PDF file will not knit regardless of latex engine used if latex commands such as /textcolor are present. If only latex commands such as \begin{tabular}, many, etc… are used the error is not present.
Addition of “header-includes: \usepackage{color}” to the YAML header, as seen below, addresses the issue. However, it is unclear why insertion of an “echo = TRUE” R-code chunk also resolves the issue.
---
title: "test"
output: pdf_document
header-includes: \usepackage{color}
---
Interestingly, with a previous version of the R-Studio suite, as see below, inclusion of “header-includes: \usepackage{color}” in the YAML header, did not appear necessary prior to use of commands such as "\textcolor{blue}{Character String}" in the .rmd file.

No TeX installation detected (TeX is required to create PDF output). You should install a recommended TeX distribution for your platform:
Windows: MiKTeX (Complete) - http://miktex.org/2.9/setup
(NOTE: Be sure to download the Complete rather than Basic installation)
Mac OS X: TexLive 2013 (Full) - http://tug.org/mactex/
(NOTE: Download with Safari rather than Chrome strongly recommended)
Linux: Use system package manager
I edited out the path locations on my PC as well as the intended title of the PDF (changing them with "PATH1", "PATH2", and "DOCTITLE" where appropriate.)
I have used the link to download MikTex multiple times to multiple locations, I have tried using ProTex as some others have had success doing. I have tried adding the bin of MikTex to the environment but no matter what, it seems that R is unable to find Tex. Most of the advice available is for OSX, and I have tried adapting those solutions for windows to no avail.
#Matty R, after getting that error I restarted Rstudio, and then it asked me to instally packages like "upquote" using MikTex Package Manager, after three or four packages installation I got the pdf file created.
I have this basic R markdown file:
---
title: 'test'
output:
html_document
---
The file test.png can be found in the project folder. If I compile the document the first time all is good:

If I look into my project folder the image test.png is gone. In the process of the first compilation of the document the image get's deleted. I can reproduce it every time. And then of course it is missing for the second compilation. This also happens with .RData files I load inside R chunks. I even tried to keep the files in a separate folder and copy them every time inside my project folder I compile my document (with the command file.copy()). But then the files in the outside folder disappear as well. It seems that every file mentioned in the markdown document gets deleted or moved somewhere else.
What I found out is that this happens only if the name of the markdown file contains spaces like test file.Rmd. Html pages produced from this file are formated test_file.html so I guess some transformation to a filename without spaces takes place.
I think this is a bug I should report on some bug tracker, but since I don't know whether this is about rmarkdown, knitr, pandoc, RStudio or something else I post it here.

I had the same issue but on Linux using the latest rmarkdown package and pandoc 1.13. In essence it seems like pdflatex does not work with the output generated by pandoc - you need to replace the latex-engine pdflatex with xelatex (part of TeXLive)
For rmarkdown my solution was to edit the file
rmarkdown/templates/tufte_handout/resources/tufte-common.def
and replace the line
\typeoutbool{pdfatex}{#tufte#pdf}
with
\typeoutbool{xelatex}{#tufte#pdf}
Then xelatex will be used instead of pdflatex to generate pdf's with rmarkdown
I faced the same issue, here are the steps I took to solve the problem:
install devtools in Rstudio (install.packages(devtools))
install rmarkdown (devtools::install_github("rstudio/rmarkdown"))
fix the files tufte-common.def and tufte-handout.tex in ~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.2/rmarkdown/rmarkdown/templates/tufte_handout/resources/
If the rmarkdown installation did not go smoothly this way then do it like this (devtools::install_github("git://github.com/rstudio/rmarkdown"))
In tufte-common.def do the following:
Add this line
\typeoutbool{xelatex}{#tufte#pdf}
uncomment this line
\typeoutbool{xelatex}{#tufte#xetex} remember % is used to uncomment latex
Add the following lines in tufte-handout.tex:
% UTF encoding
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
When I tried to compile a document I still got the following error (! Font \XeTeXLink#font=pzdr at 0.00002pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file or ins talled font not found.), I tackled it by installing texlive-fonts-recommended:
sudo apt-get install texlive-fonts-recommended
I had a similar problem. Telling knitr where to find the pdf-engine was necessary even though I had it on the windows path. Here is the header of the knitr.Rmd-document, that solved the problem for me:
---
title: "XXX"
author: "XXX"
date: '2016-11-28'
output:
pdf_document:
keep_tex: yes
pandoc_args:
- --latex-engine
- C:/Program Files/MiKTeX 2.9/miktex/bin/x64/pdflatex.exe
toc: yes
