Car installation #69

Closed emilydombrowski closed 2 years ago

emilydombrowski commented 2 years ago 
install.packages("car")
library(car)

I haven't been able to install the car package on my computer. I've tried to install with receive the following messages: 

Warning in install.packages :
  installation of package ‘car’ had non-zero exit status

The downloaded source packages are in
    ‘/private/var/folders/00/y8gd96qn04qg98qzdvj9k5yh0000gn/T/RtmpDZOdih/downloaded_packages’

When I type library(car) it also produces an error message...I've tried with and without quotations, etc.

Is anyone else having this issue? Thank you in advance!

Hey @emilydombrowski this kind of error usually occurs when one of the packages that car depends on has trouble installing. In this case that may be lme4. Can you please just try: 

install.packages('lme4')

See if that gives and errors. Thanks!

It ended up being a problem with how I was responding to a prompt in the console that appeared when downloading the package (I needed to respond 'no' instead of 'yes'). I successfully downloaded the package and have been using the associated ANOVA function. Thank you!
