I am trying to create clustered box plots in R. Everything about my code seems on track, but when I try to run it I get the error warning
"Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘digest’.
When I try to download the package digest in the R package Installer I get a bunch of errors stating that the download of digest failed.
How do I get the digest package, OR is there a way to do clustered box plots without this? Thanks!
I had the same problem with install.packages("digest") on OS10.11.6 (running with the defaults). But it worked by specifying the repos:
install.packages('digest', repos='http://cran.us.r-project.org')
I had a similar error message recently and managed to solve the problem by downloading the tar.gz file directly from the CRAN Repository (see https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/digest/index.html and download "digest_0.6.15.tar.gz") and then you can install it in RStudio (Tools -> Install Packages -> Install from Package/Archive File).

I just installed R studio and I was trying to install rmarkdown. However, I got the error as below. I unchecked the box ''Tools -> Global Options -> Packages -> Use secure download method for HTTP'' as someone suggested. No help. I tried other packages, I got the same error.
You should remove the package and reinstall it using dependencies = TRUE:
remove.packages("rmarkdown")
install.packages("rmarkdown", dependencies = TRUE)
library(rmarkdown)
Output:
Warning message:
package ‘rmarkdown’ was built under R version 4.1.2
I had the same issue and it was due to the newest version of the toolboxes include the names is under new package names. Go to the URL https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES and search for "rmarkdown". Find the package name and try to install that instead. It's like a .zip file that includes several packages to your library. Try install.packages("accucor"). It worked for me at least, and then try to install the rmarkdown package.
I'm having trouble installing the contrib.url package in my RStudio on Windows. Please note that I am using the latest version of RStudio.
I have tried different means via resources I got online and from the R online community but I keep getting this error message:
"A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,
see the ideas at
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages"
I noticed I need this package because I am unable to knit my .Rmd files in HTML and PDF. I was advised to install tinytex and contrib.url. I have been able to install tinytex but couldn't get a way around installing contrib.url.
contrib.url is not an R package:
any(grepl("contrib.url", available.packages()))
[1] FALSE
It is a function from the utils package, though (which comes pre-installed):
?contrib.url
It can be used to specify the package type for repository URLs.
I have been able to knit the .Rmd file now to HTML. All I needed to do was to just comment out the install.packages() function before knitting and it was successful. Thanks all for your help!
I tried to install R packages using RStudio Package Manager using the following code:
install.packages("dplyr", type = "source")
and
install.packages("dplyr")
and it gives the following error:
Error in install.packages : invalid version specification 'r56550'
What should I do? I tried to google the error but nothing comes up. I have tried to delete and reinstall R and RStudio but i still received the error. I tried to download both the existing binary and the source file and neither ways worked. I tried to install different packages and repeated in both R and Rstudio and nothing worked.
Thank you!
Update 1: I'm using R version 4.0.5 and RStudio version 1.4.1106. I have also downloaded Rtools40 according to the instruction in the following website: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/. I'm using Windows. By 'R Manager' I meant the package manager console in RStudio.
Update 2: I'm not sure if there is no network issue or proxy. If I download the packages directly through the CRAN mirror, then it works. But we are trying to download packages in an offline environment, that's why I need RStudio Package Manager.
I got the error message: "package ‘titletoc’ is not available (for R version 3.6.0)" but I checked MiKTeX Console that the package "titlesec" is in the list of packages and all the packages are updates. I am using a Mac (not sure if it matters).
Then I searched online to try to install the package "titletoc" separately, but I found nowhere to download this package. Something must be wrong, anyone has a clue?
I'm trying to download library 'quantmod' in R:
install.packages("quantmod")
console:
The downloaded source packages are in
‘/tmp/RtmpwSKGIl/downloaded_packages’
then:
library("quantmod", lib.loc="/tmp/RtmpwSKGIl/downloaded_packages")
console:
Error in library("quantmod", lib.loc = "/tmp/RtmpwSKGIl/downloaded_packages") :
there is no package called ‘quantmod’
What is the problem?
I get no problem when I try to load this package.Have you tried to provide R the full name path to your package file directory ?C:/Users/...Is your R version up to date ? Try to check if you have the latest, I tried and it worked with :
R 3.3.3
If you are a Windows or MAC user you might want to force the download of the package from source to binary, this can be done by setting the right options in the install.packages command:
options(install.packages.check.source = "no")
https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/utils/html/install.packages.html
I guess I am a year late, but just got out of this situation by installing the Package from R (instead of RStudio) by changing the CRAN.
You can then run library(quantmod) in Rstudio. Hope this works(worked?) for you too.
I am ready to go now!
