I open RStudio and type
install.packages('rJava')
and it works fine.
Then I load package which has renv initialized and try the same command and it returns:
Error: package 'rJava' is not available
In addition: Warning messages:
1: curl: (35) schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate.
2: curl: (35) schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate.

What might be the reason?
Update
I decided to try something radical:
remove.packages('renv')
it and worked
but then I restarted R sessions and got back
# Bootstrapping renv 0.13.1 --------------------------------------------------
* Downloading renv 0.13.1 ... OK
* Installing renv 0.13.1 ... Done!
* Successfully installed and loaded renv 0.13.1.
Is there way to get rid of renv?
Another update:
I was able to deactivate renv with renv::deactive()
When I try to install a package like this: install.packages("RGtk2")
I get the following error:
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘RGtk2’ is not available (for R version 3.3.2)
Warning in install.packages :
URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3/PACKAGES.gz': status was 'SSL connect error'
Warning in install.packages :
URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3/PACKAGES': status was 'SSL connect error'
Warning in install.packages :
unable to access index for repository https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3:
cannot download all files
How can I disable SSL so that my install goes through? I know that normally this would be bad from a security standpoint, but in this case I'm pretty sure that SSL error happens because there is some corporate proxy server that alters a certificate in some way.
I have just updated my R 3.4.0 to R 3.4.1 and my package installation has started timing out.
It looks like R is having trouble with accessing URLs:
install.packages("tidyverse")
Warning in install.packages :
InternetOpenUrl failed: 'The operation timed out'
Warning in install.packages :
InternetOpenUrl failed: 'The operation timed out'
Warning in install.packages :
InternetOpenUrl failed: 'The operation timed out'
I tried different CRAN mirrors, but still getting the same issue.
Any thoughts around this are much appreciated.
I recently installed R Studio (Version 0.99.892) on a personal computer (windows 8) and am trying to install, among others, the following packages:
ggplot2;
dplyr;
rmarkdown;
tidyr.
Neither R nor R Studio is able to install any of these packages. Each time I attempt to install a package, I get the set of warnings I include at the bottom of this post.
I have used the install.packages command as well as the built-in package installation tool. I have tried several different mirrors.
I have tried a public university internet source, my own private internet source, and a phone tether. I have tried to connect through a VPN. I have added R Studio to my Windows Firewall exception list and have also completely disabled the Windows Firewall. I am running no other firewalls.
I have toggled the various connection options in the "Packages" tab in Global Options.
I can access the URLs in a browser.
Here are the warnings from R Studio:

There are several stackexchange posts on package installation in R and R Studio, but I was not able to find any that answered my particular situation. Thanks in advance to anyone that knows what's going on
Run this command:
options(repos="https://CRAN.R-project.org")
after that try install.packages;it should work.Tested on my system.
This has happened to me before. Try explicitly specifying the location:
install.packages("devtools", repos="https://cran.rstudio.com/")
You can indeed specify the location when using the install.packages() function with the argument repos=, but you can also choose your favorite repository which will be used each time you download a package.
options(repos="my_favorite_CRAN_mirror")
You can see a list of all availables mirrors on the CRAN website. Juste copy/paste the adress of the closest CRAN repository to you.
You should be able after this step to retry install.packages('ggplot2')
You should try following code:
install.packages("ggbiplot",dependencies = TRUE, repos = 'http://cran.rstudio.com/')
It will help you to install the packages for the error:
package is not available for this version
Run the following command in R terminal-
options(repos="https://CRAN.R-project.org")
then-
use-install.packages('library')
I want to add that I had this issue, but the fix was not in R, but in our system. Our IT guy said: For some unknown reason, the DNS resolver service was unable to resolve hostnames. I’ve restarted the resolvd service. The server can now resolve hostnames.
The error on his end was: Temporary failure in name resolution
I was having a similar error while trying to install the packages dplyr, tidyr packages.
I solved the issue by checking my R.version and downloading a new version of base R. (3.3.3)
Try this...
Tools-->Global Option--> Package
Change "Primary CRAN Repository" to htpps Location
This method fixed my issue
I am trying to download the zoo package to work with time series using:
install.packages("zoo")
but I get the following message:

2: In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :

I tried several different mirrors and I keep getting the same error... Is zoo just not available in most mirrors or is something going wrong?
Please see FAQ 2.19. Or, alternatively, a quick search for "unable to connect to 'cran.r-project.org' on port 80" on rseek.org.
Reading the FAQ and doing a search for the error will usually help you resolve most issues.
