Install Rtools on R Version 3.0.2

Install Rtools on R version 3.0.2

Rtools is not a package. See here: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/

Install two versions of rtools

The problem was due to the fact that Microsoft R Client version 3.5.2, was installed in a path with space E:\Program Files\Microsoft\R Client, it was solved by installing it in a path without spaces E:\Microsoft\R-Client, such as suggested in: Message error 'C:/Program' not found with Rcpp

Rtools not being detected by R

Turns out when I installed RTools I left out the R 2.15.x+ toolchain option in the installation, which lead to the gcc never being installed. Hopefully, this post will serve as a diagnostic guide if RStudio fails to register RTools.

Thank you everyone for your help.

R version 3.0.2 cannot find RCurl package

Adding the directory "C:/R/packages" to the front of the .libPaths variable will help R find RCurl if it's been installed to a non-standard directory.
