I am working on creating a portable shiny app by referring to this.
I have a 64bit system and the target systems can be both 64bit and 32bit. I installed all packages in the portable apps library. Since the target machines don't have any internet connection.
On the target machine all packages load perfectly, except for prophet which gives error
So I see that it runs the r.exe in bin folder for whatever reason
So I run it directly which gives me this error
I know the system is 32bit. As a test case I ran the shiny app by calling on the 32bit R.exe without prophet package - and it worked perfectly.
So my question is
How do I load Prophet?
My speculation is that it tries to run the 64bit R.exe and fails, if so why are all the other packages load perfectly?
If this is the issue then how do I point it to the 32 bit R.exe?

I recently installed the citrix workspace 6/7/22 release from here:
https://www.citrix.com/downloads/workspace-app/linux/workspace-app-for-linux-latest.html
Citrix works great, able to access both remote desktops I use for work. But R stopped working. Typing R in the terminal did not launch R, just a new blank command prompt, RStudio did not load.
Upon uninstalling citrix with: apt remove icaclient apt purge icaclient
R and RStudio work again. Replicated on two machines running Xubuntu 22.04 (Dell precision T5610 and Thinkpad X260).
Would appreciate advice on how to get citrix working without breaking R
It seems the Citrix "app protection component" is to blame. Disabling it during installation allows R to work. Select "no" when asked to install app protection component during Citrix installation.
choose this option
I'm an Ubuntu user and I used to work with the standard version of Rstudio on my computer. After reading about the server version I installed it on my PC and I'm working with it now. Although I'm very happy with rstudio-server version, I have been facing some difficulties to keep with some old practices. Particularly, I use to launch, open and create new files from the terminal using rstudio keyword - I'm specially fond to the possibility of open files in current rstudio session through the terminal window within rstudio. However, I cannot figure out which command is equivalent in rstudio-server.
I tried, without success, the following commands:
rstudio-server
and
r-server
Interestingly, when I type which rstudio (to find the path of the program's binary files), the terminal did not return any results. The program is installed and working normally, but I just can't find it on my PC
Any help will be appreciated
I'm trying to get wkhtmltoimage to work in a 64-bit Debian based environment.
I'm using node-wkhtmltoimage in a node project. I dev on a mac, and using the mac binary from wkhtmltopdf, I get it to work fine. Then when I use the linux binary (tried both the linux binary and the linux(Debian) binary from the wkhtmltopdf downloads page), it does not convert my html to image at all.
I am deploying this into a firebase environment, which is the Debian 64-bit environment. Anyone had any luck with this?
I recently upgraded to Architect version 0.9.7 on my Win 7 machine. However, after starting Architect, the RJ console wouldn't launch and I got the error message:
‘Launching the R Console was cancelled, because It seems starting the R engine failed.”
Please make sure that R package 'rj' (2.0 or compatible) is installed and
that the R library paths are set correctly for the R environment
configuration 'Embedded R Server'.
I installed the packages ‘rj’ and ‘rj.gd’ through the RTerm run console (which does happen to work) within Architect using the command suggested on www.walware.de:
install.packages(c("rj", "rj.gd"), repos="http://download.walware.de/rj-2.0")
Then, I restarted windows, and restarted Architect. Same error message. I zoomed in on the details of the error message and noticed the following line:
SEVERE: Path to rj package not found. Use R_LIBS or java property
'de.walware.rj.rpkg.path' to specify the location.
So I opened an RTerm run console to check whether any of my .libPaths() locations contains the directories ‘rj’ or ‘rj.gd’. Oddly enough, they do. My first .libPaths path contains both packages. So that doesn’t seem to be the reason.
How could this be fixed?
I received prompt and helpful feedback from Open Analytics (thanks!), who informed me that the problem is due to changes in Java 8. With Java 7, Architect works fine. The next release of Architect will incorporate the changes in Java 8.
In order to get it work with Java 7, enforce the use of a specific Java Runtime, by using the -vm argument in the architect.ini file as follows:
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe
(mind the line break, which is required)
This is particularly useful if you have several Java versions on your system where the default Java is not suitable for use with Architect. The architect.ini file is found directly at the top level of the installation folder of Architect. You can find out where this is by looking at the Properties of the Architect shortcut on your desktop.
N.B. the -vm argument should be put before the -vmargs argument otherwise it is simply ignored!
N.B. examples of -vm specification on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X:

RAndFriends, which includes all the items needed to run RExcel, includes just R 2.15.2.
I am currently using the latest version of R but rcom 2.3.1 and rscproxy 2.0.5, which I am currently using, do not allow me to start an R server within Excel.
Setting foreground R server whithin Excel returns a fatal error and R rejects any connection with Excel via rcom.
I get two error messages:
R Server not available
There seems to be no R process connected to Excel
The main difference with a running RExcel session is that in the latter you may see rscproxy and rcom to be loaded when you start a RExcel session.
Is there anyone who is currently using RExcel with R 3.0.1 who can explain me how he succeeded in running it (step by step)?
Found it on statconn's Wiki section.
Assuming you have a suitable version of R installed, the following steps are necessary to install RExcel and the infrastructure. You need to be logged into Windows with administrator privileges to do this!
You also need to follow these instructions if you upgrade R, i.e. you install a new release of R after you have installed RExcel.
Download the statconn DCOM server and execute the program you downloaded.
Start R as administrator (on Windows 7 you need to right-click the R icon and click the corresponding item).
In R, run the following commands (you must start R as administrator to do this).
Commands:
install.packages(c("rscproxy", "rcom"), repos = "http://rcom.univie.ac.at/download", lib = .Library)
library(rcom)
comRegisterRegistry()
Now you have rcom installed, but RExcel is not installed yet.
To install RExcel: download the RExcel installer and run this installation program. Installing RExcel this way will set the background server of R as the default R server for RExcel. You can change this in the configuration settings in R. If you want to set the foreground server as the default site wide server, there is an appropriate option in one of the dialogs of the installation.
The RExcel installer modifies one of the configuration files of R, the file Rprofile.site, usually found at a location like C:\Program Files\R\R-2.13.1\etc\Rprofile.site.
If you do not install RExcel and want the package rcom to be loaded into R each time you start it, you have to add the line
library(rcom)
to Rprofile.site. You have to start your editor as administrator to be able to modify this file.
I thint that focus of those instuctions are on "Assuming you have a suitable version of R installed". R 3.0.1 do not work with RExcel.
I have noticed all development of Rmetrics products have ceased development since Diethelm Wuertz untimely passing, some of his associates on the team maintain it, but further development stopped abruptly after Diethelm Wuertz the project leader and main inspiration behind the team, died in a car accident in 2015, that is how long it has been since any serious development has occurred on Rexcel and all the range of Rmetric products, it is a real tragedy they are still cutting edge 6 years after Diethelm's passing, he would be sad to see his legacy slowly die. I am looking at xlwings and converting not too difficult code to python for speed and power, as far as many great R libraries go, I have not the time to reinvent the wheel within python, it is not a labour of love for me.
