Did you install with brew?

csmoreno · January 9, 2023, 9:19pm

No, I installed it with the dmg download installer

technocrat · January 10, 2023, 12:08am

Thanks. R is where it should be. Do you have RStudio in this directory?

csmoreno · January 10, 2023, 1:34am

Yes.

Any help is much appreciated. I completely uninstalled R and reinstalled it and still get the same fatal error. I also restarted my computer. Nothing seems to resolve the problem.

csmoreno · January 10, 2023, 5:48pm

I'm running MacOS Ventura 13.1

technocrat · January 10, 2023, 7:42pm

I’m going to try downversioning RStudio to see if that breaks anything and will let you know. Ping me if I don’t report back.

pairey1 · January 10, 2023, 9:21pm

I have the same issue. Follows recent upgrade to RStudio promoting the new brand.

No menu. Blank screen. I have deleted and re-installed R and done the same with RStudio.

R console gives a similar message as Carlos above:

Technocrat, I also downloaded using the download installer but do not have the directory or app you screenshot, the 'app' is named 'RStudio' (not 'RStudio.app') and it is located in /Applications/RStudio. There are no files or directories under 'RStudio'

technocrat · January 10, 2023, 9:30pm

I will be down-versioning tonight to see if it’s primarily a problem with this release and let you know.

pairey1 · January 10, 2023, 9:46pm

technocrat: thank you. I am completely stuck.

pairey1 · January 10, 2023, 10:32pm

technocrat: I have more than one Mac. I down-versioned the 'stuck' Mac to 2022.07.1, the version running on my second, older Mac.

2022.07.1 runs fine on the previously stuck machine. It is clearly an issue with the latest release.

technocrat · January 10, 2023, 11:04pm

You beat me to it. I'm going to try on Ubuntu. Glad not to be forced into VSCode.

pairey1 · January 10, 2023, 11:07pm

I assume it is a problem with some, but not all Mac users. I run r version 4.2.2 on an Intel Mac Mini. Are problems posted somewhere? I was seeing RStudio's 'a new version is available' for a while (2 weeks?) before I upgraded, figuring any kinks would have been worked out

technocrat · January 10, 2023, 11:16pm

I'm on an M1 and have a variety of workarounds for some, but not all problems. Many of them are related to changes that override ENV.

technocrat · January 11, 2023, 7:26am

Down versioning worked for me on Intel but not Silicon. I'm going to wait for the dev cycle to catch up with reality and take this as an encouragement to try out VSCode.

pairey1 · January 11, 2023, 7:32pm

Technocrat: I'd be interested to know how you get on with VSCode. While I am sure it has it's own intricacies I'm curious about the learning curve to be as functional with VSC as you are with RStudio. I run code everyday. I can't go down for an even a couple of days while the dev team figures out a patch.

csmoreno · January 11, 2023, 8:01pm

Have you been able to recreate the fatal error? Or any progress for a solution? I noticed it started when I installed Command Line Tools for Xcode 14.2.dmg

technocrat · January 11, 2023, 11:41pm

Still puzzling. Check back tomorrow after 0100 PST
