I upgraded to R 4.0.2 today, and also updated my copy of RStudio. While I've been updating my packages I've found that shiny won't install. Whenever I try to install shiny I get the following message...
Error in as.list.environment(base::getNamespace("shiny"), all.names = TRUE) :

ERROR: loading failed for 'i386', 'x64'

Warning in install.packages :

I get this error regardless of whether I just type "install.packages('shiny')" and peace out or if I download the tar.gz and try to install from a local directory. The same error happens when I specify to download an older version of shiny, so I'm pretty sure it's not a problem with the file I'm trying to install. Restarting RStudio does nothing, which is the only advice I could find online for shiny installation problems.
Has anyone else had any problems with installing shiny since upgrading to the newest version of R? Any workarounds?
When I am running my shiny app in RStudio I get an error message:
packages not found. shiny 1.0 required but 0.14.1. available. Check "repos" Option.
I have tried everything but no luck.
** Update
No I have downloaded the package directly from CRAN, this was the result:
install.packages("C:/Users/mbaer/Downloads/shiny_1.1.0.tar.gz",
repos = NULL, type = "source")

This is a picture
I have no idea. This is a screenshot.
I found the solution:
Tools--> Global Options --> General--> R Version
wrong R Version was selected. #fail
Thank you so much for your attention to my post. Thank you all.
This answer still left me wondering a little, so I thought I'd add a bit. This led me to switching from 64-bit R to 32-bit R. Had to re-install all my packages, but then it worked!
I want to install the R-package Leaflet on my R-server(linux) from GitHub because it is more up-to-date than the current CRAN-version. I’m using the following R-script to do this:
library(httr)
library(devtools)
set_config(use_proxy(url = "xxx", port = xxxx))
devtools::install_github("rstudio/leaflet")
But it is showing the following error:
if(!require('devtools')) install.packages('devtools')
Loading required package: devtools
devtools::install_github('rstudio/leaflet')
Downloading GitHub repo rstudio/leaflet#master
from URL https://api.github.com/repos/rstudio/leaflet/zipball/master
Error in curl::curl_fetch_memory(url, handle = handle) :
Couldn't connect to server
Calls: <Anonymous> ... request_fetch -> request_fetch.write_memory -> <Anonymous> -> .Call
Execution halted
When I do install packages from CRAN, there are no issues at all. But I need the newest version of Leaflet which is only at GitHub...
Is there a solution to fix this? Is it because I'm using a proxy?

followed the steps below to install QuantLib on OSX and it went smoothly:
http://quantlib.org/install/macosx.shtml
Then trying to install RQuantLib. First download the source, unzipped and executed the following command from Terminal, with the error messages below:
$ R CMD INSTALL RQuantLib
Loading required package: DBI
Loading required package: rJava
Error in .jfindClass(as.character(driverClass)[1]) : class not found
Calls: JDBC -> is.jnull -> .jfindClass
Execution halted
Tried directly in R, same issue:
> install.packages("RQuantLib")
Loading required package: DBI
Loading required package: rJava
Error in .jfindClass(as.character(driverClass)[1]) : class not found
Calls: JDBC -> is.jnull -> .jfindClass
Execution halted
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘RQuantLib’ had non-zero exit status
Tried reinstalling RJDBC in R, no success either. Somehow I can't get this to work, and am stuck now.
Any help is highly appreciated, thanks.
On one computer running R 2.15.2 I have installed packages from a .zip file (these packages happened to be ggplot2 and data.table, but I don't think the specific package is my issue.) Everything works fine. I took these packages to a computer without an internet connection and installed them. This other computer is running R 3.0.1. The packages seemed to install without a problem (using R's "install package(s) from local zip file" option). When I call the packages with the library(), I get the following error:
Error: package '<insert name of newly installed package here>' was build before 3.0.0: please-re-install it
Can anyone explain potential causes for this error to be thrown? Are there particular directories that the .zip packages must be in for a proper install? If R is installed on a separate partition from where the .zip packages were loaded, could this cause the error?
I'm at a loss, any pointers are greatly appreciated. This is a difficult one to reproduce; if you need any other version/system parameters to understand the problem, please don't hesitate to ask.
I found this solution while look at GitHub ggplot2 issue #796
update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
It will update all the packages that need to be reinstalled.
Running install.packages("codetools") can fix this issue for R 3.0.2, if you have the same problem like me:

I installed shiny according https://github.com/rstudio/shiny-server/wiki/Ubuntu-step-by-step-install-instructions
and got the same error at the step
sudo su - -c "R -e \"install.packages('shiny', repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')\""
Warning messages:
1: In install.packages("shiny", repos = "http://cran.rstudio.com/") :

I tried the answer by Richard Lee by starting R
R
and got the error
Warning in install.packages("shiny") :
'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
Would you like to use a personal library instead? (y/n) n
Error in install.packages("shiny") : unable to install packages
obviously no write permission, so
sudo R
Now I tried again
install.packages("shiny")
and got a number of errors
Error : package ‘codetools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘RJSONIO’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘caTools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘bitops’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘digest’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘xtable’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Each time I got an error, I re-installed the requested package
install.packages("codetools")
install.packages("RJSONIO")
etc.
and eventually, I was able to install Rccp, httpuv, and even shiny.
Now it works!!

I am using rkward on precise
I had a similar error using rkward. Specifically this one:
'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
I temporarily changed the permissions for this directory so that rkward could run this from its console:
update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
all to fix this:
Error: package '' was build before 3.0.0: please-re-install it
so that (sigh...) I could fix 'default' configuration for audio on precise. I couldn't use play() etc. in rkward.
That just needed phonon-backend-gtstreamer
I tried to install swirl on R(v3.1.0) on ubuntu 12.04LTS:
sudo R
install.packages("swirl")
But faced a similar error:
Error : package ‘codetools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : unable to load R code in package ‘httr’
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘httr’
* removing ‘/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/httr’
ERROR: dependencies ‘testthat’, ‘httr’ are not available for package ‘swirl’
* removing ‘/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/swirl’
Doing following helped me:
install.packages('codetools')
install.packages("swirl")
library("swirl")
swirl()

I hope the same may help fix your installation issue.
Here is the work-around that I used:
I installed the latest version of R on an internet-capable computer. I then loaded the my required packages (Packages->install packages->select mirror->select package...
After R is finished installing, it displays a message of where the temporary .zip package is located. I navigated to this location, grabbed the temp package, and burnt it to a cd.
In this way, I could get the newer package build onto a computer without internet access. I would still be interested to know if there is an easy way to rebuild a package downloaded on an early R version to make it compatible with the latest version (without needed an internet connection).
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction #JoshuaUlrich
