I also tried to shitch the CRAN but it didn't work.
Many thanks!

I had the exact problem, but I loaded the RGui, ran it as administrator, typed the install command (install.packages("ez") for me), and just let it run. After about 10 solid minutes it finished. Could be you're just not waiting long enough.

I guess you just need to install Rtools before installing the rmarkdown package. You can do that from the following link: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/

Unable to install dplyr package on windows vista

I'm trying to install the dplyr package on my Windows vista machine (through R Studio). I have the latest version of R installed (3.22) and the preview version of R Studio installed. I've had no issues in the past installing packages, however when I try to install this one, I got error:

None of these files ever get written into ‘C:/Users/user/Documents/R/win-library/3.2’.
Other things tried:
making sure that I have the latest version of R installed
opening R Studio in Administrator mode and installing the packages then
installing in R commander instead
trying a different CRAN mirror
None of these helped.
Any ideas how to install dplyr?
As #erasmortg suggested in the comments, I first downloaded the dplyr zip file from the cran-r page. Then ran:
utils::install.packages("c:/R/dplyrversion.zip", repos=NULL)

can't install "CHAID" on Mac OS X 10.9.5

I have encountered a problem of installing CHAID package on my Mac. I am not sure if it is a problem of my Mac OS version or some other problems. Could anyone help?
Thank you so much!!

You first need to install the 'partykit' package (and all of its dependincies) and then issue this command:
install.packages("CHAID", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org", type="source")
This is the transcript on a Yosemite machine but I think this should also succeed on Mavericks. (You can notice that there is no invocation of compiled code, so I do not need to warn you that XCode might be needed.)

If you dont have a swap file enabled and run out of ram the OOM (out of memory) killer will normally terminate the offending process. This exhibits itself in the manner described in the OP's question when attempting to install packages. To fix this a swap file should be enabled.
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=512k
$ mkswap /swapfile
$ swapon /swapfile
You can change attributes for the swap file like swappiness see an example here.
