R not working #3

Open SarahWeber1699 opened 6 years ago

SarahWeber1699 commented 6 years ago

Hi professor, I spoke to you today (Thursday) about R not working properly, I showed you on my laptop. Many of us are having this issue. Some people can’t even open R. You asked me to remind you to look into it. Please let us know what to do to fix it. Thanks!

Hi Sarah,

Thanks for posting this issue. I've been searching around and found some other reports of this issue. It seems to be an issue that occurs when R-studio can not find R on your computer.

Can you confirm that you first installed R, and then separately installed R-studio afterward? Also, can you remind me what kind of computer you are running (PC, MAC?).

One recommendation is to uninstall both R and R-studio, and the re-install, specifically in this order:

  1. Install R first
  2. Install R-Studio

If these steps don't work, perhaps we can find a time to meet soon and troubleshoot in person.

Hi professor, I am using Rcloud because I couldn’t figure out how to actually install R and the lab professor told me it’s the same. I tried running them again and had the same issue. I attached a picture of the errors.

Ok thanks, although the pictures didn't come through. That's ok though, because I've seen some examples of the white screen problem.

I have been able to get R studio cloud to work fine for the labs. Have you been able to get R studio cloud working when you have a good internet connection? I'm wondering if the r studio cloud issue we were looking at in class was a matter of the wifi connection being a little bit spotty.

SarahWeber1699 commented 6 years ago

Yes I have a strong internet connections and R studio cloud is running just the codes won’t run through. I keep getting error. I did figure out how to download R onto my computer however when I try to install the packages I need it said there’s an error and the file can’t be opened so I’m not really sure what the issue is.

Thanks. Let's try two things with R-studio cloud.

  1. Download your .rmd file from R-studio cloud that is not working, and email it to me. I'll see if I can spot any issues.

  2. I have been able to run all of lab 1 on R-studio cloud, so the issue is very puzzling. It's possible something happened to your project, you might try making a new project and seeing if it works in the new project

  1. I've found that some antivirus software on Windows may cause issues the prevent R-studio from accessing R. To test this, you can temporarily turn off your antivirus software, and then see if R-studio starts working.

Hi professor, Would you have time to meet on Tuesday in person to try and find out what the problem is?
