I am working in Mac with a fresh install of the OS. R 3.4.3 GUI 1.70 El Capitan build (7463) is installed on my system. When I open R Console, I see the following error messages, which scroll continuously until the application is closed. I have tried installing older versions of R, going back to 3.4.0, but with the same results. R Studio works without any issues. Please advise how this may be corrected.

I have a problem with launching R Studio after installation, I have been using R for 2 years already in my job, but now I have a new computer and wanted to install R and RStudio. R version: 4.1.2 RStudio regardless version getting error. On my older Windows notebook, everything works fine. This is the first time I see something like this - it is a brand new pc 64-bit version. R normal GUI works also without problems, however, once RStudio launched getting this error:
I recently decided to upgrade both R and RStudio on my PC, 64-bit version.
First, I uninstalled the previous versions, RStudio 1.4462 and R 3.4.4, and then I installed R 3.5.1 and RStudio 1.4463, in the order here mentioned.
The installation goes just fine, but when I try to open R from the desktop shortcut I receive an error message saying:
Fatal error - unable to initialize JIT
The same thing happens with RStudio.
I click OK on the message (it's the only thing I can do) and R closes immediately, same for RStudio.
What could cause this issue? I looked around the internet but I couldn't find anything useful.
Not sure the cause of the JIT error, but in case anyone stumbles upon this thread later, I was able to overcome this issue by reinstalling the same version of R (4.1.0 in my case) on my machine, overwriting the old version. Doing so seemed to maintain all my previously installed packages too. Now R & Rstudio works fine on start-up. Give it a try!
I have been unable to run R from within QGIS on my Macbook. I have R version 3.4.0 installed and QGIS 2.18.9 on macOSX Sierra.
"The error message I receive is
Missing dependency.This algorithm cannot be run :-(
This algorithm requires R to be run.Unfortunately, it seems that R is not installed
in your system, or it is not correctly configured to be used from QGIS

I get the same thing on my MAC. Researching discovered that the MacOS X from El Capitan and later (Sierra is later) implemented some stringent sandboxing security that doesn't allow R to be seen from the QGIS location. Hence the error. So far I have not discovered a workable solution. The solutions suggested for El Capitan do not work for Sierra.
I have been having some weird issues with R (3.1.1) and RStudio (0.98.1079) and I suspect that it is due to the fact that these programs are not longer referencing the right places after I upgraded to Mac OSX 10.10.
In particular, I cannot seem to find packages that I know I have installed on my computer to run using the system command in the R console. That is, running man pdflatex in a Terminal window yields the help manual for PDFLATEX. However running system('man pdflatex') from the R console yields the error message No manual entry for pdflatex.
The issue persists even though I reinstalled R, RStudio and MacTex since I upgraded to Mac OSX 10.10. Any help would be appreciated!
Yosemite has a bug wherein some environment variables, including PATH, appear twice in a program's environment with different values. For instance, you might notice that Sys.getenv("PATH") will show you one PATH, and system("echo $PATH") will show you an entirely different one.
I expect that most of your problems are due to this bug.
There are a few workarounds you can try immediately:
You can manually forward PATH yourself. Try this:
> system2("man", "pdflatex", env=paste0("PATH=", Sys.getenv("PATH")))
Or, you can start RStudio from Terminal:
$ open /Applications/RStudio.app
Both the R and RStudio engineers have implemented workarounds in the last few days. R (as of 3.1.2) and RStudio (as of 0.98.1087) should behave as you'd expect.
There are a host of questions about similar problems. All of them appear to come up when you update OS X to either Yosemite or Sierra with an older version of R already installed.
The easiest solution is to completely uninstall R (note the comments about using which R !), and then to install it again.
This also solves problems such as R showing different version numbers in terminal and the GUI.
I tried installing a list of packages this morning and had an error which crashed R when I ran library(repmis)
install.packages("repmis")
library(repmis)
I've uninstalled & reinstalled R (on my mac by deleting the app and downloading the new build), but still get an app crash when I run library(repmis).
Can anyone tell me why? And/or how I can more effectively uninstall R to get this package to work again?
Problem solved, I restarted the computer and repeated the procedure above and this time received a prompt to install a Java 6 runtime.
I'm guessing that the dialogue box had issues displaying earlier because of some system printer windows I had open.
