Unable to install h2o R package

[aut...@gmail.com]

I am using RStudio .99.902 with R version 3.3.0 (2016-05-03)

I am trying to install the h2o package for 3.8.2.9 following the instructions at:
http://h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com/h2o/rel-turchin/9/index.html

when I get to the install packages line, I the error message below. I can use the cran install (install.packages("h2o")), but it installs the wrong version (3.8.2.6) and the libraries don't seem to work. Same error happens when not using R Studio

I've had exactly this same issue with a couple of versions of the tgz file.

I never fully tracked this down as I didn't have time, but I managed to work out it was possibly a UAC issue or a long file names issue

Try downloading the *.tar.gz from http://h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com/h2o/rel-turchin/9/R/src/contrib/h2o_3.8.2.9.tar.gz and then do the following.

Windows
open R

install.packages("<paht-to-file>/h2o_3.8.2.9.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")

Linux
wget http://h2o-release.s3.amazonaws.com/h2o/rel-turchin/9/R/src/contrib/h2o_3.8.2.9.tar.gz
R CMD INSTALL h2o_3.8.2.9.tar.gz
