R.oo package won't install on RStudio Server - r

I'm perplexed that the R.oo package installation fails on RStudio server, any idea on how I can get around it?

According to the author of the R.oo and R.KEYWORDS packages, there was an incompatibility between the last version of R.KEYWORDS (v1.4.2) and R.oo (the cran version 1.9.3 was incompatible, not being the last one v1.9.8). He corrected that recently.

As of last night: I can confirm this problem on two different RStudio servers, one running R.2.14.1, the other R.2.15.1, so it's not R version. One is our linux server, the other is an amazon EC2 server. And no problem installing on a local RStudio (OSX; R.2.15.0).
HOWEVER: as of an hour ago, this problem has disappeared. On both RStudio Servers, R.oo now installs fine. So, try again!

Unable to install any package in computer at my office, how to fix?

I'm trying to use computer in my office for working using Rstudio because I realised that there is Rstudio installed in the computer. However, when I'm trying to install the package I need, the package is unable to install. I try so many package but the same issue happen.Even though, I'm trying to update installed package such as rlang version 1.02 to the latest one, it is also failed. I've tried to restart Rstudio as well after I installed the package, but I can't find the package that I have installed before.
Here is the error message that I receive when I try to install the very standard one such as scales package:

There are binary versions available but the source versions are later:

I don't know how Rstudio installed in this computer and I'm truly beginner in R. Is there anyone can help me? thank you in advance. Regards.
Since it is not known how R was installed in your computer, I would highly recommend you to uninstall both R and RStudio and installing the latest versions from the official websites.
First install R from: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/
Install RStudio from: https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/
Maybe they were installed in the wrong settings for your computer. Also to prevent bigger issues in the future (especially for beginners), that's the best option.

Why won't ggplot install properly on my machine after an upgrade?

I've had a problem for a while now in which I can't load the stringi package until I install it clean. This seems to work as long as I'm in a single R session. Then, some time later, maybe when I create a new session or probably after a longer delay, I have to install it again.
This all broke this morning for some reason. Now, if I can install it straight away, and load it, but it's not recognized by ggplot2. Specifically when I try to install ggplot2 I get:
> library(stringi)
> install.packages("ggplot2")

As you can see, stringi loads successfully into the environment, but I get this error when installing ggplot2.
Elsewhere this problem has been reported as fixed by installing stringi, but here, that doesn't help. But I suspect something is wrong with the stringi installation because of the previous problems I have had having to continually reinstall it.
I have tried installing stringi and ggplot2 using
install.packages("stringi", type = "source")
install.packages("ggplot2", type = "source")
Once again, stringi installs but ggplot2 does not.
Seems to be installing Rcpp again that fixed the problem.
Thanks to commenter at https://community.rstudio.com/t/stringi-installation-not-recognized-consequently-ggplot-wont-install/11590

Had tried:

Using this command to install all the dependencies:

Still, the "non-zero exit status" appeared. Do you have any suggestions?
I am using Windows 7 (64 bit), R 3.4.1 and RStudio 1.0.153
I think i found a temporary answer for my problem. I previously had problems related to the privilege in writing the library folder in R. Tried to work around by turning off anti-virus live update, change the security of the R folder, etc. I thought it was worked, since I did not find anymore issues on "unable to move temporary installation....". But when I restart my computer, the problem came again.
Since I am working in a university provided laptop, I need to wait until the IT grants me access as an admin. While waiting for it, I created a new library in C:/ (in my case, I named it as "R library local"). Downloaded all the package to that library
install.packages("plm", dependencies = TRUE, lib = "C:/R library local")
And load the package from the library
library("plm", lib="C:/R library local")
It works well :)
Dunno if I still need the admin access for the library in R folder or not.

From experience, I believe there is a difference between Java and Java Offline.
Try installing the x86/x64 offline version from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html (A handy link to keep hold of)
If you have the newest Java, just open a terminal and run
sudo R CMD javareconf
Then in a R-session,
install.packages("rJava",type='source')
install.packages("RWeka")

Persistent problems installing the car package in R

I'm having problems installing the package car in R.
There are previous posts on the topic, including this one and this other one.
I have followed the suggestions I've come across so far without success. I am using R Version 3.2.2. and RStudio.
This is the message I get:
install.packages("car")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/.../Documents/R/win-library/3.2’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
trying URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.2/car_2.1-3.zip'

C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\Rtmpc3xr5i\downloaded_packages
If I check I get,
?car
No documentation for ‘car’ in specified packages and libraries:
you could try ‘??car’
I tried installing it from R with Install packages from local zip drives, and looking for the zip in C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\Rtmpc3xr5i\downloaded_packages, but this is the result:
library(car)
Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) :
DLL ‘SparseM’ not found: maybe not installed for this architecture?
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘car’ was built under R version 3.2.5
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘car’
I did try installing SparseM even before posting the OP without success:
> install.packages("SparseM")

> ?SparseM

Follow up:
After a comment regarding R version 3.2.3 I thought it would be an easy fix to just download this version, install, and erase 3.2.2. The problem then is that RStudio did not seem to work. I un-installed and re-installed R-studio, and now I get this when opening R studio:
Without knowing what version of the car package you're using, it's hard to know exactly what the source of the problem is. It seems likely, however, that you haven't installed the proper version of the pbkrtest, on which the Rcmdr package depends.
Is there a compelling reason not to upgrade everything to their current versions, including R, all packages, and RStudio?
Best,
John
