can't install ggsankey

[marazzoli]

Hello, I tried installing ggsankey using "remote", "devtools" and locally and everything failed, with the same warning message: "Installing package into ‘C:/...../R/win-library/4.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning message: package 'ggplot2' was built under R version 4.2.3 Error in subset(..., ...== "....") : object ...' not found Calls: ggplot -> subset Execution halted Warning message: In i.p(...) : installation of package ‘C:/....../ggsankey-main’ had non-zero exit status"

It does seem like I'm having an issue with ggplot2, but I cleared the environment, restarted R studio, removed and reinstalled ggplot2, made sure all is up to date.... I am sure I'm missing something fundamental, but I hope that you can help me find out. Thanks in advance Maria

Hi @marazzoli: I'm having trouble grokking this error. Could you do a reprex so the output error messages are clear?

[marazzoli]

@engineerchange thanks for your reply. I believe that due to the grammar of the error message I get, reprex doens't work (it actually gives an error message itself). Here's what I've got (as copy paste in this space):

@marazzoli I'm mostly confused by the error subset(muscle_liver, tissue == "liver") - are you running a line of code above this that doesn't end?

Can you click Session -> Restart R and only run devtools::install_github("davidsjoberg/ggsankey") after startup in the Console?

[marazzoli]

@engineerchange sorry for the confusion.....that code is smtg that got compromised and I don't seem to be able to get rid of it. IT appears anytime I restart R studio. I know that's got to be the key, but I honestly can't find a way to get rid of it, short of uninstalling R and Rstudio and trying again...... This btw is what it looks like restarting a session after closing and reopening Rstudio

Restarting R session...

Warning message: package ‘ggplot2’ was built under R version 4.2.3 Error in subset(muscle_liver, tissue == "liver") : object 'muscle_liver' not found

@marazzoli sounds like a startup script is impacting your R session. Look into .Rprofile or .Renviron files, and then comment out the script so you can install packages before loading packages when you restart your R session. Here's a helper page to find where those files are located on your machine.

thank you!!!! I managed to find the startup script and now I installed and m ready to enjoy ggsankey! thank you so much
