Hi, I am trying to make my existing shiny application in R have the prackrat functionality, however when I try to select the project to have packrat (Tool -> project options ->Packrat -> Use packrat with this project.  It correctly fetches the corresponding sources for the libraries, however, I get the error of: Error in hash(descFile) : 
  No DESCRIPTION file at path 'C:/Users/sravindran/Documents/packtest/packrat/lib/x86_64-w64-mingw32/3.2.0/R6/DESCRIPTION'!  I can confirm that I don't have the description file, where can I find it?

Thank you

I copied an existing packrat folder from another project and now it works! Thank you! I was just wondering, if I want to transfer one project between users, do you need to send the whole shiny application with the packrat folder or can you just send the ui, server, and helper files?
