Gerardo,

I don't know off hand why this error happens, but we can try to narrow it down.

- Are you able to install other packages? Can you try installing a package with "install.packages" command, for example:

install.packages("shiny")

- If that works, can you try the following:

devtools::install_github("rstudio/shiny")

- One possibility is the path to your temp directory where the package is first downloaded is causing problem. You could try setting your "TEMP" environment variable to a simple path such as "C:\temp", restart RStudio, and then try to install "shinyapps".

Thanks,

Fereshteh

Gerardo,

Happy to hear that. I think the problem was with non-ascii characters in your path (Configuración). We are aware of some issues with non-ascii characters, and will be working on fixing the issues. But for now at least you have a workaround.

Best,

Fereshteh
