Problems when trying to install and load package "rzmq"

4 messages · Paul Bernal, Jeff Newmiller

#
After connecting to a mirror, I typed the following command:

install.packages("rzqm")

but I received the following message:

ERROR: compilation failed for package 'rzmq'

removing 'E:/Documents/R/win-library/3.3/rzmq'

package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of
C/C++/Fortran: 'rzmq'
These will not be installed

The computer environment is Windows 8 64x bits


Any help and/or guidance will be greatly appreciated

Read the system requirements [1]. I don't think you can do this on windows.

Dear Jeff,

Thank you for your fast and kind reply. When you say that you do not think
this can be done on windows, then I would have to use something like Ubuntu
or Linux?

Best regards

Paul

Something like that.  For all I know, MacOSX might work.  Read the system requirements yourself. I don't know all the systems that can meet those requirements.
