"Unable to retrieve package records" for a shinyapps.io with github package

[Dieter Menne]

I have a package on github:

https://github.com/dmenne/gastempt

with a Shiny application. The package compiles ok on TravisCI.

Trying to upload the shiny app within the package to shinyapps.io, I get the following error:

Preparing to deploy application...DONE
Uploading bundle for application: 97004...Fehler: Unable to retrieve package records for the following packages:
- "gastempt"


Any ideas?

Dieter

The problem is that we're not able to automatically infer where this package's home is if you install it locally. If you install from github using:

devtools::install_github("dmenne/gastempt")

then try publishing to ShinyApps.io again, it should work.

Magic, magic. It works. I always thought that

URL: http://github.com/dmenne/gastempt

would do the work. Thanks, Joe

Hi, 

I have a similar problem. I'm trying to upload my application on ShinyApps that uses a locally built package called CBCPro. I get the following error message:

Error: Unable to retrieve package records for the following packages:

- 'CBCPro'

Execution halted

I tried to install using the following command:

devtools::install_local("<path to the directory where the package was built>", force = TRUE)

I see it was installed successfully, but when I now try to deploy my app again, I still get the same error message. 

Could you please help?

Thanks,

Ok, I just figured out that I need to upload my files to github to get this going. Done it and following your instructions, it worked like charm!! Thanks.
