Hello I'm getting error like: Warning in install.packages : package ‘ReporteRs’ is not available (for R version 3.5.1) Error in library(ReporteRs) : there is no package called ‘ReporteRs’

with trying to install;

install.packages('ReporteRs')

how can I resolve this?

Hello,

You can not solve that as it has been removed from CRAN (you can find details on the github page https://github.com/davidgohel/ReporteRs).

Hi David,

Unfortunately I have the same problem when I try to install it from Github or even from CRAN archives: 

>   devtools::install_github('davidgohel/ReporteRs')
Downloading GitHub repo davidgohel/ReporteRs@master
Skipping 1 packages not available: ReporteRsjars
Installing 9 packages: httpuv, later, png, promises, ReporteRsjars, rJava, rvg, shiny, sourcetools
Error: (converted from warning) package ‘ReporteRsjars’ is not available (for R version 3.5.1)

> devtools::install_version("ReporteRs", version = "0.8.10", repos = "http://cran.r-project.org")
Downloading package from url: http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/ReporteRs/ReporteRs_0.8.10.tar.gz
Skipping 1 packages not available: ReporteRsjars
Installing 12 packages: httpuv, later, png, promises, R.methodsS3, R.oo, R.utils, ReporteRsjars, rJava, rvg, shiny, sourcetools
Error: (converted from warning) package ‘ReporteRsjars’ is not available (for R version 3.5.1)

I am migrating to officer but this will take a lot of time (I'd have to rewrite an entire library). In the meantime I'd need my old scripts to be usable. How should I install ReporteRs?

Hi Dan,

It seems you did not follow installation instructions (see my previous answer)!

DanChaltiel commented 5 years ago

Oops, you are right, I forgot to install the ReporteRsjars package on this instance. But I think this is the only thing I missed.

Unfortunately, this simply brings me back to another error I've seen before:

> devtools::install_github('davidgohel/ReporteRs')
Downloading GitHub repo davidgohel/ReporteRs@master
Installing 7 packages: httpuv, later, png, promises, rvg, shiny, sourcetools
Error: (converted from warning) unable to access index for repository http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.5:
  cannot open URL 'http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.5/PACKAGES'

I'm not sure why github is linking to stats.ox.ac.uk, but indeed, if you follow the URL, there is no 3.5 directory, only a 3.4.

Does it mean I'm lacking yet another package ? If yes I couldn't find which one...

davidgohel commented 5 years ago

The only advice I can give there is to make sure you installed all packages named in Imports and you have a JRE < 9 and it should be ok

DanChaltiel commented 5 years ago

This was one great advice, it works like a charm. Thanks a lot !
