I am working on HPC with RSTudio 4.2.1 and I want to install RTools with the installr package.
I was able to install the installr but then, when I run the command install.Rtools() I get the following:
Infiniband hardware address can be incorrect! Please read BUGS section in ifconfig(8).
trying URL 'https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/rtools42-x86_64.exe'
Warning message:
In download_fun(exe_URL, destfile = exe_filename, quiet = FALSE, :
cannot open URL 'https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/rtools42-x86_64.exe': HTTP status was '404 Not Found'
I installed the installr using devtools::install_github('talgalili/installr')
If anyone run into this, I would really need some help!
This is currently a known bug as reported in
https://github.com/talgalili/installr/issues/177
since the link of fetching the rtools has been changed.
You can wait until the authors of the installr package fix it or manually download the r tools and follow the steps.
