problems installing a module

Post by Alex Estudillo »

Hi all,

I am having problems installing the module PartialProximity. I have tried to follow the instructions here, but I still get some error.

It seems that Jamovi is found:

Code: Select all

> jmvtools::check(home='c:\\Program Files\\jamovi 1.2.17.0')

jamovi compiler

jamovi found at c:\Program Files\jamovi 1.2.17.0\bin\jamovi.exe
I pasted the unzip folder in my working directory: "Program Files\\jamovi 1.2.17.0", but then when I try to install it, I obtain the following error:

Code: Select all

jmvtools::install()

jamovi compiler


jamovi could not be found!
Am I missing something? Any help would be much appreciated.
Alex

I also had same problem.

try jmvtools::install(home='c:\\Program Files\\jamovi 1.2.17.0' )

Or change folder name to 'jamovi', delete 1.2.17.0

Hi Sbalci,

Thanks for your input. Unfortunately, still havbing issues. I deleted the version, but now I obtain the following output:
jamovi compiler

Code: Select all

jamovi found at c:\Program Files\jamovi\bin\jamovi.exe

DESCRIPTION file could not be found

Is the path specified an R/jamovi package?
Any idea?

Please try this one: jmvtools::install(pkg = "C://ClinicoPath", home = "C://Program Files//jamovi//bin")
pkg shows the folder you have the DESCRIPTION and other package files.

hi xz,

take a look where jamovi is installed on your computer, and specify the path accordingly.

it's normally installed something like "C:/Program Files/jamovi 2.3.2.0"

cheers
