Hallo Everybody I fear I may have broken something. I tried to use firefox as my help browser in Rstudio becuase the help window is really small. I tried options(browser = "/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox") but that didn't work. Thereafter I couldn't use my help window in R studio from here on. I updated R and R studio. When I click on the Packages & Data menu item in the (normal) R Gui I get the following: Error in readRDS(file) : ReadItem: unknown type 32, perhaps written by later version of R
If I try to use the package installer and check for packages I get: Warning: unable to access index for repository http://cran.za.r-project.org/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.15 I cannot do ity from the consule either: > install.packages("plyr", lib="/Users/christiaanpauw/Library/R/2.15/library") Warning: unable to access index for repository http://cran.za.r-project.org/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.15 I am almost certain the problem started when I broke the browser option: I couldnot find the correct option for Mac anywhere it is currently set to > options("browser") $browser [1] "/usr/bin/open" in RGui and : > options("browser") $browser function (url) { .Call("rs_browseURL", url) } <environment: 0x100a0c028> in Rstudio Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
