danieltomasz commented 1 year ago

Summary:

Please provide a short summary (no more than a sentence or two).

Due to some bugs in the version on cran I tried to install 2.26 on my machine with R 4.3 arm64. I am unable to install the package from stan repo.

Description:

install.packages("rstan", repos = c("https://mc-stan.org/r-packages/", getOption("repos")))

Output

(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
also installing the dependency ‘StanHeaders’

Commenting to say that I am having this same issue trying to install the rstan development version on my Mac.

This can often be due to a firewall issue, are you working on a corporate/organisation network or computer? Can you try using a different network/internet connection?

mbuonanduci commented 10 months ago

I am using a personal computer and have tried using multiple network/internet connections, with the same issue.

Can you post the output from the following command (testing connection to the repo):

download.file("https://mc-stan.org/r-packages/bin/macosx/big-sur-arm64/contrib/4.3/PACKAGES", destfile = tempfile())

And then also the full output that you get when running the installation command:

install.packages("rstan", repos = c("https://mc-stan.org/r-packages/", getOption("repos")))

Here is the output when I test the connection using the code you specified (i.e., big-sur-arm64):

Here is the output when I test the connection but change the code from big-sur-arm64 to big-sur-x86_64 to reflect my operating system:

Ah yep, thought that might be the case. Our repo isn't properly configured for Intel MacOS, only Apple Silicon (my fault on that one!).

I'll push an update now so that binaries will be available in a few hours, but in the interim you should be able to install from source:

install.packages("rstan", repos = c("https://mc-stan.org/r-packages/", getOption("repos")),
                 type = "source")

Thanks!

@jgabry Binaries are updating now, turns out it was actually a bug in the drat package: https://github.com/eddelbuettel/drat/issues/138

The fix isn't on CRAN yet, so a heads up to use drat from github if you have to update any binaries in the future
