I am trying to install package mvtnorm, but it says that package ‘mvtnorm’ is not available (for R version 3.4.4)....
I believe this is happening cause of R version..... but When I am trying to upgrade R...it is not allowing me to do so.
I tried to install package "installr" for upgrading R, but it showed the same error - "installr’ is not available (for R version 3.4.4).
There is update tab under "HELP" on the console panel of the studio...it is not responding....
I am using Linux machine for the first time...so i am really confused on how to go about.
I hope to get this thing solved with some help from an expert who can guide me on how to proceed.

I tried to install the packages in the following way:
pacman::p_load(tidyverse, lubridate, zoo,
timetk, modeltime,
trelliscopejs, seasonal,
tsibble, feasts, fable)
However, I got the below errors:
I'm not sure what's wrong, I'm using the latest R version 4.2.1, the warning seems to suggest that need to change to 4.1.3, is there anyway to install those packages without changing the version?
The problem is not related to the package in itself. The warning about the version only tells you that the last time this package was built was on R 4.1.3, but it should work on R 4.2.
The problem is that the place where R searches this package doesn't exist. If you go here: https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/, you will see that the last version of R is 3.4, whereas you're looking for a package built in R 4.1 (see the version in the URL address in the error message).
Here's some advice to solve this (I can't reproduce your problem so I can't be sure this works): if you're using RStudio, go to "Tools -> Global Options -> Packages". I think that under "Primary CRAN repository", there should be the name of the current place where R searches for the files to install each package. You can change this: either pick "Global (CDN) - RStudio" or any other that is not too far from your location. Then restart R and try reinstalling the packages.
Downloaded package from below URL.
Attempted to install using below command; response shown.
library(dalton.rqi,lib.loc='/home/X/Desktop/')
Error: package ‘dalton.rqi’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it

It appears this is a compiled package that maybe I don't have the source for? Is there a way to force install of the package? I'm unable to install using Rstudio GUI in its current form as a zip. Tried repackaging to tar.gz has Rstudio was looking for and also had a non-zero exit status error.
Any ideas?
I'm afraid this can't be achieved directly. The error message says it well: to use a package in R it needs to be built on an R version matching yours.
I can suggest two ways to move forward:
Contact the authors, ask for the R sources (it is somewhat surprising they did not make them available in the first place), and build the package yourself.
Downgrade your R version as far back as needed to match the one this pre-built package used.
Currently running R version 3.6.2 and RStudio version 1.2.5033 (both the latest versions as of today).
I have installed the R/Cape package from https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=cape, although when I try to load the package into R studio using:
library(cape)
I get the following from the RStudio console. RStudio then stops responding. I have tried this in just R as well and R also stops responding.
Can anybody please tell me if they've had any similar experiences and how they resolved them? Or if you've managed to install the 'cape' package how you did so?
The 'cape' library depends on other packages like 'htmltools' and many others. This is not an error message, just a warning. It means that some of the functions from 'tools:rstudio' will be replaced by other functions with the same name. See this answer which already addresses this.
As for the non-responsive behaviour, it is probably unrelated to the warnings discussed above. Try reinstalling R and updating all your packages. In Rstudio, you can update all your packages by clicking Tools > Update Packages > Select All > Install Updates.
Im a bit new to R and need to use/adapt someone else code in R.
My supervisor uses R version 3.2.2 with the dplyr package version 0.4.3 (to overcome errors and problems with the original code).
I tried to install the older dplyr package with different methods:
- installed devtools package and then used the url devtools::install_url("http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/dplyr/dplyr_0.1.2.tar.gz")
- manual installation (where I downloaded the file and tried to install it.) Installation seemed to have worked but when I run the code it gives a fatal error massage
Every way I've tried so far either gives a lot of error messages or a fatal error and shutdown.
When using help ?dplyr it gives a pop-up that there is an error. Does anybody have any other ideas to install this package?
Thanks!
In trying to install package "RevoScaleR", I get the following error. I have tried installing this package with various versions of R but get the same error every time. Does anyone have any idea why?
install.packages("RevoScaleR")
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘RevoScaleR’ is not available (for R version 3.1.2)
Any help is appreciated.
Just to update this post,to install the RevoScaleR package you need to install Microsoft R client, see here for details:
https://www.blue-granite.com/tutorials/sql-server-r-services
R Client includes the ScaleR (rx[…]) functions in the RevoScaleR package. I don't believe this package is open source so isn't available on cran, install.packages() therefore won't work.
The RevoScaleR package is only available if you install the Microsoft R Client or if you use Microsoft RStudio Server via Azure. After you install this you don't need to do install.packages("RevoScaleR") for it is already installed.
R Studio will automatically have the R version [64-bit] C:\Program Files\Microsoft\R Client\R_SERVER under "Global options"
The link below gives more detail information about Microsoft R client. Once you install Ms R client and update the R-studio path to the R client you don't need to install 'RevoScaleR' anymore, it comes pre-installed with Microsoft R client. Read the link fore more.

I am not sure what R version you are currently using but the latest stable version is 3.1.2. If the package installation warning is telling that the package you're trying to install is not available, that basically means that the package developer has not yet made a version of the package that is compatible with the R version you're currently running.
If you really need to use this package (if your work heavily depends on it and you are on some kind of deadline) I would advise to install an earlier version of R (like 3.1.1 or 3.1) and do your work with it.
I would also suggest that you reach out to Revolution Analytics, as suggested by Andrie.
Thanks!
You just have to set the propper CRAN repos:
options("repos" = c(CRAN = "https://mran.microsoft.com/"))
and then
install.packages("RevoScaleR")
will run properly.
