Error message in design menu

[cegbuna]

Great job for putting this package together.

I get the following error message in the

cannot open file '~/R/win-library/3.4/viridisLite/data/Rdata.rdb': No such file or directory

Not sure why I get the above error because I do have the specified file in the directory. Could you please provide a solution to rectifying this error?

I'm using Version 0.47.5 and don't get this error with older versions.

Thank you Emeka

Hi Emeka, Try deleting the folder viridisLite and un-installing and re-installing skpr. There might be an issue with permissions on your computer that this might fix. I found this link that could help:

Thanks for responding, Tyler.

I tried your recommendation and that from the link and still got the same error message.

Cheers, Emeka

Funny Rstudio now crashes when I run skprGUIbrowser() and skprGUI()

[tylermorganwall]

Try installing the package devtools and installing skpr from here:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("tylermorganwall/skpr")

If that doesn't work, update to the latest version of R (3.4.4) and try installing again.

[cegbuna]

I tried both methods and still getting the same error message. Very strange behavior

[tylermorganwall]

A possible solution is to change your R library folder out of the user directory and instead place it somewhere else on the C: drive (e.g. C:\R\win-library\3.4\ instead of '~/R/win-library/3.4/). Windows sometimes restricts access to third-party software in writing to the user directories.

Closing as a likely local installation issue.
