Amazon EC2上RStudio上的install.package（）不起作用。 软件包不适用于R版本3.3.3

Question

I've seen this: How should I deal with "package 'xxx' is not available (for R version xyz)" warning?

and been through the list. No luck. I've also navigated via SSH to my library to see if there was some LOCK file or corrupt install. There is nothing there.

I literally just installed RStudio on Amazon EC2 and can't install the any new packages. I've done it this way: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/running-r-on-aws/ I've also used Ubuntu with Louis Anslett's AMI: http://www.louisaslett.com/RStudio_AMI/

I get the same problem in both. I have downloaded them manually and installed the tar.gz files from the temp directory. The CRAN repository seems to be fine because install.packages() downloads the tar.gz to /tmp/Rtmp2Rh9Zr/downloaded_packages/ just fine, but then the actual install process fails.

When I run install.packages("haven") for instance, it says

> install.packages("haven")
Installing package into ‘/home/jblocher/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.3’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)

The downloaded source packages are in
    ‘/tmp/Rtmpia0VEs/downloaded_packages’

When I install it using the already downloaded package, it says

> install.packages("/tmp/Rtmp2Rh9Zr/downloaded_packages/haven_1.0.0.tar.gz")

Answer 1

如果要提供要安装的存档文件install.packages ，则可能需要指定repos=NULL ：

install.packages("/tmp/Rtmp2Rh9Zr/downloaded_packages/haven_1.0.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL)

Answer 2

On my EC2 instance, I ran into the same problems when trying to install packages on RStudio, eg, car, that involve RAM-intensive compilations. This could be fixed by adding swap space as described here
