:wave: hello!

What error is there in the log you copy-pasted?

Thank you for your quick response. I'm not sure exactly what the error is but every time I try to submit the package to CRAN for publishing I get a notification that there is an error or a warning message as below;

Dear package maintainer,

this notification has been generated automatically.
Your package geomod_0.1.0.tar.gz has been built (if working) and checked for Windows.
Please check the log files and (if working) the binary package at:
https://win-builder.r-project.org/goWS1GNFvfjW
The files will be removed after roughly 72 hours.
Installation time in seconds: 6
Check time in seconds: 19

R version 4.0.0 beta (2020-04-15 r78231)

Oh! Are you using devtools::check_win()? So you mean the error is on Windows and you don't get it on your local OS? Could you copy-paste the ERROR and WARNING that you get by clicking on the link in the email (it expired so I can't see it).

Getting an error on a platform, say Windows, and not another one, say Mac, is not uncommon at all (and CRAN Windows builder might have different settings than your local machine if you use Windows), but to help you fix it forum readers need to know what the ERROR and WARNING are.

Maybe you can reproduce the error on R-hub Windows platforms. R-hub platforms are meant to mimick CRAN platforms as closely as possible. See intro to rhub.

When I run devtools::check_win() the following error appears.

Error: 'check_win' is not an exported object from 'namespace:devtools'

What could I be doing incorrectly?

Sorry the functions are check_win_devel(), check_win_release() etc. But it was a question from me: how did you send your package to Winbuilder? The email you quote above is something you get after submitting a package to Winbuilder (which is a tool provided by CRAN, to check packages on Windows before you submit them to CRAN, where your package will be tested on several platforms included a very similar Windows platform).

I've just remembered I wrote a blog post about Winbuilder.

Thanks. The log tells you the error is in install.out where you can read about problems (warnings and error) in particular

Error in setwd("D:/Academic/cleanscript") 

cannot work on another machine than yours.

I'd recommend investigating warnings/ error from install.out, in particular removing that setwd. Good luck!

Thank you very much for the insightful help. Let me investigate install.out further before submitting the package. Thank you Maelle.
