jamovi

Version I am using:
RStudio 1.4.1717
R 3.6.3
Jamovi 1.2.27.0

I am trying to create a module in jmvtools using Rstudio, I am getting this error below when I run the command: jmvtools::install()

ERROR:
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "buffer" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer, TypedArray, or DataView. Received an instance of TypeError
at Object.writeSync (fs.js:704:5)
at C:\Users\shahi\OneDrive\Documents\R\win-library\3.6\jmvtools\node_modules\jamovi-compiler\index.js:488:12
at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:93:5)

The "buffer" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer, TypedArray, or DataView. Received an instance of TypeError

I have also tried using different versions of R and I end up receiving the same error.

hi,

just double check you're using the latest version of jmvtools, and i'd suggest updating to a recent version of jamovi too.

cheers

Hello

I am getting exactly the same error, using latest versions
jamovi 2.2.2.0
jmvtools 2.2
RStudio 2021.09.0 Build 351
R-4.1.1
Grateful for any suggestions

Peter

did you install jmvtools as described in the dev.jamovi.org?
I recommend not putting libraries in onedrive folder. it may be trying to keep some files online only.

hi decaux,

could you attach here a screenshot of the commands you're running and the errors they produce?

kind regards

Religiously following the tutorial.
Not using Onedrive.
Used PC laptop. Will try again on my desk machine.

Your library path contains OneDrive: C:\Users\shahi\OneDrive\Documents\R\win-library\
Probably you have activated OneDrive to backup your documents folder.

Hi @sbalci,
you're probably right, but I don't think @decaux uses @Shahip's PC.

We are waiting for decaux to give us some further information.
I am heavily using jmvtools with the same software versions without encountering any issues.

Cheers,
Maurizio

No problem with my office desk machine.
Probably time to get a new laptop!
Thanks for comments

Oh, well then, there seems to be different problems
