Startup problems with Matrix package

[dagvon]

When I start up, it tries to load a package Matrix, and the following error message shows itself, whereafter everything stops:

Loading required package: Matrix
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘Matrix’ in vapply(cntns, function(x) x@distance, 1):
reached elapsed time limit

Hi,

Welcome to the RStudio community!

Could you elaborate a bit more on the issue? Does this happen immediately when you open RStudio (before you run any code) or only at runtime. Does it happen in one particular file or project (close all projects, or create a new one to see if there is a difference).

If it is code related, please create a reprex to show us how to recreate the problem. A reprex consists of the minimal code and data needed to recreate the issue/question you're having. You can find instructions how to build and share one here:

FAQ: How to do a minimal reproducible example ( reprex ) for beginners

A minimal reproducible example consists of the following items: A minimal dataset, necessary to reproduce the issue The minimal runnable code necessary to reproduce the issue, which can be run on the given dataset, and including the necessary information on the used packages. Let's quickly go over each one of these with examples: Minimal Dataset (Sample Data) You need to provide a data frame that is small enough to be (reasonably) pasted on a post, but big enough to reproduce your issue. Let's say, as an example, that you are working with the iris data frame head(iris) #> Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species #> 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.…
