Please I need help with this: I try to load ggplot2 and I'm getting this error. I have tried almost everything I can.

It seems like RStudio doesn't have access to the internet, is your internet connection behind a proxy server or firewall? This is usually the case when you are at work or school.

Thank you for your response. I usually don't even use an internet when I'm working with it. I have been using it for analysis since I first installed it until yesterday when I could not load ggplot2.

Thank you andre, It is working now. But must I be connected to the internet all the time?

[andresrcs]

That command is for installing ggplot2, and for that, yes, you need an internet connection, but once is installed you don't need an internet connection for loading the library.

library(ggplot2)

Awesome! Thanks a lot.

FAQ: How do I mark a solution?

If your question has been answered, don't forget to mark the solution! How do I mark a solution? Find the reply you want to mark as the solution and look for the row of small gray icons at the bottom of that reply. Click the one that looks like a box with a checkmark in it: [image] Hovering over the mark solution button shows the label, "Select if this reply solves the problem". If you don't see the mark solution button, try clicking the three dots button ( ••• ) to expand the full set of options. When a solution is chosen, the icon turns green and the hover label changes to: "Unselect if this reply no longer solves the problem". Success! [solution_reply_author] …
