I am not able to install Deducer
- I am running OS X 10.7.5
- My current version of R is 2.15.2

This is the command  I ran and the error I received.

> install.packages("CarbonEL")
Installing package(s) into ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
  package ‘CarbonEL’ is not available (for R version 2.15.2)

Any help is appreciated!

I had the same issue this morning when trying to install Deducer on my Mac.  I ended up uninstalling 2.15 and used the link at the top of this page to reinstall: http://www.deducer.org/pmwiki/index.php?n=Main.MacOSXInstallation

That installed 2.13 and I was able to get everything working from there.  Hope that helps!

I used the link as well with R v2.13 and everything worked except when I entered JGR() into R. This is what I got in response:

> JGR()

Starting JGR ...


Error in download.file("http://www.rforge.net/JGR/web-files/JGR.dmg",  : 

  cannot open destfile 'JGR.dmg', reason 'Permission denied'


 Could not download launcher. Either you are

not connected to the internet, or you do not have permissins to the

folder: /hdiutil: mount failed - No such file or directory

cp: /Volumes/JGR/JGR.app: No such file or directory


Copy the following is a launch script for JGR


#!/bin/csh


setenv R_HOME /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources

setenv R_LIBS /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.13/Resources/library

setenv R_LIBS_USER /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.13/Resources/library


./JGR.app/Contents/MacOS/JGR


Error in file(file, ifelse(append, "a", "w")) : 

  cannot open the connection

In addition: Warning message:

In file(file, ifelse(append, "a", "w")) :

  cannot open file 'jgrLaunch': Permission denied


The JGR console never opened, so I could not load Deducer.


I'm a comparative novice at all this. Any help would be appreciated.

That download link was old. I've fixed the link so that it goes to the latest version of R on CRAN. 

1. upgrade you R to 3.0.1
2. download the JGR launcher from http://www.rforge.net/JGR/web-files/JGR.dmg
3. launch JGR.app and install Deducer with: 

install.packages(c("JGR","Deducer","DeducerExtras"))

4. run deducer with 

library(Deducer)



best,
Ian
