Lately I am unable to knit to pdf - not sure what happened to create this problem. tinytex is installed and worked fine for a while. Whenever I attempt to knit to pdf I get a message like the following. (Here I was attempting to knit the demo knit-to-pdf file supplied by Rstudio when one creates a new R Markdown document.)
/Applications/RStudio.app/Contents/MacOS/pandoc/pandoc +RTS -K512m -RTS Untitled.utf8.md --to latex --from markdown+autolink_bare_uris+ascii_identifiers+tex_math_single_backslash --output Untitled.tex --template /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library/rmarkdown/rmd/latex/default-1.17.0.2.tex --highlight-style tango --latex-engine pdflatex --variable graphics=yes --variable 'geometry:margin=1in' --variable 'compact-title:yes'
output file: Untitled.knit.md
Error: Failed to compile Untitled.tex.
Execution halted
sh: rm: command not found
When I knit to anything, the last line of the message (from rmarkdown?) is always
sh: rm: command not found
Here is the session info, in case that is any help
