I have been using lme4 every day for quite a while.
Today, after opening R (x64 v 2.15.1), it complained that there is no package called ‘lme4’. So I re-installed it.
When I ran require(lme4) a popup was generated saying Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point Rf_copyListMatrix could not be location in the dynamic link library R.dll and after clicking OK the message there was an error in the R console:
Error: package ‘Matrix’ could not be loaded
So I reinstalled Matrix, after running require(Matrix) the same popup is generated followed by this error in the console
Error in inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...) :
unable to load shared object 'C:/R/R-2.15.1/library/Matrix/libs/x64/Matrix.dll':
LoadLibrary failure: The specified procedure could not be found.
I have tried restarting R and rebooting the PC.
How can I fix this ?
Update:
sessionInfo() gives the following:

I have now solved this problem.
It required a minor upgrade of R from v 2.15.1 to 2.15.2

I need a packages witch is located on Github. And I am aware that there are multiple solutions to install the package in R.
I am trying to install the package on a Windows server. This is what I tried:
Solution 1 (which is based on the Vignette)
install.packages("devtools")
library("devtools")
devtools::install_github("bmschmidt/wordVectors")
Error: Could not find tools necessary to compile a package
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In strptime(xx, f, tz = tz): unable to identify current timezone 'C':
Please set environment variable 'TZ'
I tried many things to solve this:
Reinstalling Devtools, use the CRAN devtools version
Reinstalling R and Rstudio (installing the latest versions as admin) (Error : Could not find build tools necessary to build)
But still the same error...
So I tried a workaround to install the packages on my computer:
Solution two
Download ZIP file from (https://github.com/bmschmidt/wordVectors)
Unzip the ZIP file
But the result is an error again:
library(devtools)
install("path/to/unzipped/file")
library("wordVectors")
Error there is no packages called wordVectors.
Anyone an idea what is going on? I struggled the whole day with this issue. Help is really appreciated! Thanks!
Edit
Also Rtools is (re)installed (the latest version...)

I have been using R for a while without problems. Just a sudden, i have several issues with Rjava errors. I searched online for clues, but found none.
The error is: Warning in install.packages :
package ‘rJava’ is in use and will not be installed
and now every time i run install.packages, i get a pop box that says uploading loaded packages.....

Every time i start RStudio, i get this error:

I made sure that i had java versions for 64 bit and the environment was set correctly.
install.packages("rJava");library(rJava)
I want to have a solution so that rjava loads correctly when i start RStudio or install rjava
This looks like you are loading tabulizer on startup, which also loads rJava. I suspect the reason is that you have a file called .RDATA saved in your default working environment. That makes RStudio open and load it on starting. In that file, I suspect there is an object which needs tabulizer. This is why it is loaded on default and why you have these problems.
The solution is to delete or rename the .RDATA file. Use getwd() to find out your current working directory. You might need to make hidden files visible.
I need to obtain user input from the svDialogs R package, e.g. using svDialogs::dlgInput(). However, attempting to do this without attaching the package with library() or require() gives an error:
svDialogs::dlgInput("Example")
Error in svDialogs::dlgInput("Example") : attempt to apply non-function
The following works fine:
library(svDialogs)
svDialogs::dlgInput("Example")
Why might this be, and what might be a way around it? I have the current CRAN version of the package (0.9.57).
Update
I have tried installing previous versions of svDialogs, as well as comparing my code with the source code from the cgam package, which depends on svDialogs. Currently the entire svDialogs package is imported in my NAMESPACE, which is how it is used in cgam. But I still get the same error unless I first run library(svDialogs). Any tips?
Update 2
I also imported the entire svGUI package in my NAMESPACE, with no luck.

I've been looking at StackOverflow forums like this and this but I cannot find a problem.
What I'm having an issue with is that I cannot install the caret package because the dependencies cannot be installed. I even tried to run install.packages("caret", dependencies = T) and that failed. I have also tried install.packages("caret", dependencies = c("Depends", "Suggests")) and it failed on installing rPython dependencies.
There seems to be issues saying that there is a configuration script and that I need to manually configure it.
I tried installing car, lme4, and other dependencies manually but only ggplot2 was able to be installed correctly. I have no idea what else to do, below is my session Info. Please help!

did you try downloading the packages manually from CRAN and installing them manually from Rstudio? Some of the packages require rebooting the Rstudio after package installation or after package inclusion in the Rscript. That worked for me..
also, try installing different versions of the packages until one of them works for your case..that's what I did in the case of "ggvis package

In my search for solutions, I found one post that is very similar and which currently has one answer that did not work for me.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I could not install devtools running the latest RStudio and R (as of July 2015) versions on Windows XP SP3. Apparently the latest version of git2r does NOT support windows XP.
My workaround was to install R-3.0.3 and RStudios 0.98.1103. With these versions, install.packages("devtools") works as expected.
