Hello I am tring to install R in eclipse. At first I was getting the following error message

"Launching the R Console was cancelled, because it seems starting the 
R engine failed. Please make sure that R package 'rj' (2.0 or compatible)
is installed and that the R library paths are set correctly for the R 
environment configuration 'R firstRTest'."

I found someone with the same error: StatET in Eclipse and R

However when I went proceeded with the suggested solution I ran: 

install.packages(c("rj", "rj.gd"), repos="http://download.walware.de/rj-1.0")

in an R console, I got the following error message:

packages ‘rj’, ‘rj.gd’ are not available (for R version 3.1.2)

Any help is appreciated. I am new to this so please keep it simple (as simple as possible) for me.

    Try adding `type="source"` as a parameter (though the compilation of one of the pkgs failed on my Mavericks system) – hrbrmstr Feb 05 '15 at 03:35
  • Sorry, could you explain how I would do that? – NicoFish Feb 05 '15 at 04:04
  • `install.packages(c("rj", "rj.gd"), repos="http://download.walware.de/rj-1.0", type="source") ` – hrbrmstr Feb 05 '15 at 04:06
  • It seems to have worked but I got the following message. http://i.imgur.com/3Q2RMzb.png Sorry for screen cap it was too long to comment. What do I do now? Sorry for asking things that are probably obvious. thank you – NicoFish Feb 05 '15 at 04:32
