I saw a version of this question posted, but still did not see the answer. I am trying to use ggplot2 but get the following errors
Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]) :
there is no package called ‘stringi’
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’
I installed stringi - leading to this error
There is a binary version available but the source version is
later:
binary source needs_compilation
stringi 0.5-2 0.5-5 TRUE
Binaries will be installed
trying URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.2/stringi_0.5-2.zip'
Warning in install.packages :
cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found'
Error in download.file(url, destfile, method, mode = "wb", ...) :
cannot open URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.2/stringi_0.5-2.zip'
Warning in install.packages :
download of package ‘stringi’ failed
Then I read this question - package 'stringi' does not work after updating to R3.2.1. And followed the suggestion of using the option and getting binaries for my windows version
> options(install.packages.check.source = "no")
> install.packages("stringi",type="win.binary")
trying URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.2/stringi_0.5-2.zip'
Warning in install.packages :
cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found'
Error in download.file(url, destfile, method, mode = "wb", ...) :
cannot open URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.2/stringi_0.5-2.zip'
Warning in install.packages :
download of package ‘stringi’ failed
And now my analysis is stuck just because of this; no ggplot2.
