I want to use t-test and z-test function, its need to use BSDA package, but
when I install selected, it shows:

The downloaded packages are in
/var/folders/4X/4X093vewHqCEqkPJXgl8I++++TI/-Tmp-//RtmpdKKQ3g/downloaded_packages
I don't know why, please help me to tell the mistake. I'm newbie with this program.
Appreciate all answers.
I do not see any problem so far. I get a similar message when I install pkg:BSDA from that CRAN repository (although I did not get the message about not setting a default locale.). That message "packages are in
/var/folders/xS/xSUsVXT..." is generally a sign of success. My guess is that you are a new user and have not yet understood that in addition to installing packages in the Library, which is a durable event, that you also need to load them into your workspace, which is a temporary event, only persisting as long as your session. Try this:
library(BSDA)
If Dirk is correct and that local message is a sign of failure, then in the past some people have reported success with this procedure (to be done in a Terminal session) taken from the Mac-R-FAQ:
defaults write org.R-project.R force.LANG en_US.UTF-8

I'm hoping someone knows the answer to this issue. It's been previously brought up here and was resolved, with the problem attributed to an antivirus preventing the installation. I don't currently have an antivirus installed on my mac, but it still seems to be an issue. Here is the code input:
> snailcloth7x<-drm(mort/total~conc, weights=total, data=snailcloth7, fct=LL.4(fixed=c(NA,0,1,NA)), type="binomial")
And this is the response I receive:
could not find function "drm"
I understand that this may have to do with an issue installing the package properly. When I install the drc package using
install.packages("drc")
I get this, which seems fine:

tar: Failed to set default locale
But then when I retrieve it from the library through
library(drc)
It shows this message
there is no package called 'haven'
How do I resolve this? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Fixed the issue. Received on response on Reddit "You've gotten stuck in a dependency problem. Happens from time to time. If this was me, the next thing I'd do is install.packages("haven"), then try to load drc again. Keep repeating for every "there is no package" error until it works."
I am trying to use RMarkdown to knit my report to a pdf. I am on my work computer (without administrative privileges and behind a firewall), and chose TinyTeX as a LaTeX distribution because I was hoping it would still work without having to involve the IT department (at my place of work it takes ages to get elevated privileges). I had no problems installing the tinytex R package, but I run into errors when using the package to install TinyTeX. The code with errors is below:

Then at this point I get a dialog box that pops up and states: "Next you may see two error dialog boxes about the missing luatex.dll, and an error message like "Use of uninitialized value in bitwise or (|)..." in the end. These messages can be ignored." When I click 'Okay', I don't see any other dialog boxes but I get the following code:

I am using R version 3.6.2, RStudio version 1.2.1335 and I'm on a Windows 10 x64.
I'm not familiar enough with R, RMarkdown or TinyTeX to understand what is going wrong and how to fix it. Perhaps it is because of no admin rights or the firewall...Any help is appreciated!
im using R and quite new at rmarkdown. i want to knit my rmarkdown into pdf formatted file and i already read that i need to install tinytex package.

idk why but it keep trying to download from https://mirror.unpad.ac.id.
any explanation?
At the moment, the mirror https://mirror.unpad.ac.id does not seem to have a valid SSL certificate, so the site is not accessible. You can find other accessible mirrors at https://ctan.org/mirrors/mirmon. To specify the mirror, use the repository argument. Below are two possible examples:
tinytex::install_tinytex(repository = 'http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/CTAN/')
tinytex::install_tinytex(repository = 'http://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/')
I would like to install a package with a security profile that does not have access to /tmp , but has its own temporary directory, for example /tmp/jeroen. However even though I try to pass the TMPDIR environment variable, it still fails because it tries to use /tmp. Below a toy example using RAppArmor and unixtools (see here for the test profile)
> library(RAppArmor)
> library(unixtools)
> dir.create("/tmp/jeroen")
> set.tempdir("/tmp/jeroen")
> setwd(tempdir());
> aa_change_profile("r-test")
Switching profiles...
> print(tempdir());
[1] "/tmp/jeroen"
> install.packages("plyr", lib="/tmp/jeroen", configure.vars="TMPDIR=/tmp/jeroen")

Fatal error: cannot create 'R_TempDir'
The downloaded source packages are in
‘/tmp/jeroen/downloaded_packages’
When looking at the kern.log file (which logs security messages), it turns out that the problem is that R CMD INSTALL still tried to use /tmp which was denied:
Jul 24 19:41:34 Jeroen-Antec kernel: [16270.696805] type=1400 audit(1374687694.097:599):
apparmor="DENIED" operation="mkdir" parent=5798 profile="r-test" name="/tmp/RtmpcUOJuQ/"
pid=5802 comm="R" requested_mask="c" denied_mask="c" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000
Is there any way I can tell R CMD INSTALL to use /tmp/jeroen instead?
The correct answer was given by #hadley in the comments: in order to make sure install.packages uses the custom temporary directory, one needs to do
Sys.setenv(TMPDIR="/tmp/jeroen")
in addition to:
configure.vars="TMPDIR=/tmp/jeroen"
This way both the extraction and the installation of the package avoids the system or user default temporary directory.
The documentation in help(tempdir) pretty clearly states that TMP, TMPDIR, ... are used:
By default, ‘tmpdir’ will be the directory given by ‘tempdir()’.
This will be a subdirectory of the per-session temporary directory
found by the following rule when the R session is started. The
environment variables ‘TMPDIR’, ‘TMP’ and ‘TEMP’ are checked in
turn and the first found which points to a writable directory is
used: if none succeeds ‘/tmp’ is used.
So if setting one alone does not help, maybe you want to set several, and make sure the permissions on your 'replacement directory' are permissive enough etc pp.
I'm trying to install a package into R, something I swore on my blood never to do, yet here I am.
The command supposedly goes:
install.packages('NCStats',,'http://www.rforge.net/')`
while I am enjoying the healthy dose of:

Le-sigh. Anybody know how I can tell tar what locale I'm in, not that I understand why it needs that or why it can't just know it already?
I'm running OSX 10.6.4 and R 2.11.1 GUI 1.34 Leopard build 64-bit (5589).
Step 1 (In R Console)
system('defaults write org.R-project.R force.LANG en_US.UTF-8')
Step 2: Restart R
Source: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html#Internationalization-of-the-R_002eapp
Use this command in the R console:
system("defaults write org.R-project.R force.LANG en_US.UTF-8")
Remember to quit and start again R.
refer: https://github.com/nerves-project/nerves/issues/376#issuecomment-456939623
If you don't want to permanently set env. variable. do:
$ export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
$ export LC_ALL=$LANG
No need to restart the system.
Better Close the entire R studio and Reopen it again
will fix that error tar: Failed to set default locale
