Error while running MLED

[Abisoyesam]

I keep getting the error below whenever I run the MLED_hourly.R file. Meanwhile, I use the new version of R and RStudio. Could you tell me how I fix it?

[giacfalk]

Thanks for posting here. Please try running the following, and then re-run the MLED_hourly.R file:

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("Pakillo/rgis")

Please let me know.

I tried to use my Ubuntu machine for M-LED, here is the error I got. Kindly help.

[giacfalk]

Which version of R are you using? In general, I reccommend installing R 4.2.3, as the model is currently developed and tested under this version.

[Abisoyesam]

I use R 4.4.1. I will downgrade the version and install the recommended R4.2.3. Does the RStudio version matter also?

[giacfalk]

I think the RStudio version makes little difference, however I fully agree that it is a good idea to downgrade as there seem to be some package incompatiblity with your current R version. Please keep me posted, thanks!

[Abisoyesam]

I have already downloaded the recommended R version. What version of RStudio would you recommend?

[giacfalk]

RStudio
2023.03.0 Build 386

[Abisoyesam]

The packages are currently being installed as I execute code lines 25 to 75. The installation is in progress.

So, for my Ubuntu machine, the R version is 4.1.2. There is a need to upgrade it to R 4.2.3, even though the errors are different?

[Abisoyesam]

Here is the error once I run line 25 - 75 MLED_hourly.R. I have downgraded R and RStudio to the recommended version.

[giacfalk]

Try to restart your R session and re-run the command. Do you also have access to a Windows OS machine?

[Abisoyesam]

@Abisoyesam and @AbisoyeAkinloye is the same person with different computers (Windows & Ubuntu). I have completely switched to Windows and below is the error I keep encountering even after i downgraded the R and RStudio on my Windows OS machine.

[giacfalk]

That is really frustrating, I am sorry to hear.

Please try the following install.packages("future") and let me know about the outcome

[Abisoyesam]

install.packages("future")

future failed to install.

[giacfalk]

Try devtools::install_github("HenrikBengtsson/future")

[Abisoyesam]

And once I click No from the prompt, I get the below error.

Should I try clicking Yes?

[SumayaM84]

Good day Im having the same challenges as Abisoyesam to run R
Calls: ... namespaceImportFrom -> asNamespace -> loadNamespace
Execution halted
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package 'future'

• removing 'C:/Users/sumay/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.2/future'

[giacfalk]

And once I click No from the prompt, I get the below error.

Should I try clicking Yes?

Yes!

[giacfalk]

@SumayaM84: could you please try the following:

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("HenrikBengtsson/future")

[Abisoyesam]

And once I click No from the prompt, I get the below error.

Should I try clicking Yes?

Yes!

How do I resolve this, please? I'd appreciate your swift response so as to meet up with the module task. Thank you.

I was able to resolve the issues and errors I was getting regarding rgal, rgis, future packages and their dependencies.
Should you be having similar issues you may want to have the following as your setup

My environment

• - OS Windows 11
• - RStudio-2024.04.2-764 https://download1.rstudio.org/electron/windows/RStudio-2024.04.2-764.exe
• - rtools42-5355-5357 https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/rtools42/rtools.html
• - R-4.2.3-win
• - rgdal_1.6-7.tar.gz https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/rgdal/rgdal_1.6-7.tar.gz

After running rtools and or downloading R-4.2.3 Go to Tools >>> Global Options >>> R Sessions/R Versions - Ensure you see this version or click change to select this version if you have two versions running of R

After downloading rgdal remember the location you have downloaded it to then in RStudio, go to Tools >>> Install Packages >>> Select Install from Package Archive File (.zip; .tar.gz)

The above setup did resolve the earlier issues I reported and subsequently the same issues you seem to be having.

Thank you! It works...

I don't know if you encountered this as well.

whereas I could find the file in the local file.

I have unfortunately not experienced this challenge.

Please check that you inserted correctly the path to your mled_database folder! It is always the issue in cases of "file not found" errors! @Abisoyesam
