David,
Thank you. You are correct - I was inadvertently accessing an old
version. Deleting the old and re-installing means I can fire up R
V3.0.1 which runs fine.
However, I still can't get R Studio to start up, receivng the following
message:
ERROR r error 4 (R code execution error) [errormsg=Error in
identical(call[[1L]], quote(doTryCatch)) :
7 arguments passed to .Internal(identical) which requires 5
,
code=local(source("/Applications/RStudio.app/Contents/Resources/R/Tools.R",
local=TRUE, echo=FALSE, verbose=FALSE, encoding='UTF-8'))]; OCCURRED
AT: core::Error r::exec::<anonymous
namespace>::evaluateExpressions(SEXP, SEXP, SEXP *, sexp::Protect *)
/Users/rstudio/rstudio/src/cpp/r/RExec.cpp:145
Even though I re-installed the latest version 0.97.551. I wonder if
there is an old Library or other support file that was not properly
replaced?
Thank you
