Different Error in renv::restore()

[Joy4kim]

I was trying to install renv packages. Here're my steps I did:

1. Install renv package
   install.packages( "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/renv/renv_0.12.5.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source" )

2. Initialize a local library
   renv::init(bare=TRUE)

3. Install the correct packages
   renv::restore()

In the #3 process, I faced an error message as below;

  Error: install of package 'Matrix' failed

Actually, I had different error because I didn't install RTools. After RTools installed, I got this error on the same page of 'Matrix' installation. Please help me solve this!!

Thanks.

@Joy4kim

/bin/sh: line 1: gcc: command not found

installing RTools should have provided you with gcc and the ability to call it.
I would maybe manually look for gcc in your Rtools folder; then check if its set in your paths

Thank you so much!

I got a right version of RTools and installed the Matrix successfully.
However, I got another error as below. Do you have an idea why that happen?
