Dear all,
Hope you are doing great. I am currently using R version 3.4.1 ("Single
Candle") and was trying to install packages RODBC and RODBCext using the
following steps:
> install.packages("RODBCext")
Installing package into ?C:/Users/PaulBernal/Documents/R/win-library/3.4?
(as ?lib? is unspecified)
also installing the dependency ?RODBC?
trying URL '
https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/cran/bin/windows/contrib/3.4/RODBC_1.3-15.zip'
Content type 'application/zip' length 831635 bytes (812 KB)

trying URL '
https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/cran/bin/windows/contrib/3.4/RODBCext_0.3.1.zip'

package ?RODBC? successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Warning: unable to move temporary installation
?C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\filedd64ac13805\RODBC? to
?C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\RODBC? # I dont understand
this Warning message I mean why was it unable to move a previous
installation?
package ?RODBCext? successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Warning: unable to move temporary installation
?C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\filedd6447315795\RODBCext?
to ?C:\Users\PaulBernal\Documents\R\win-library\3.4\RODBCext?
The downloaded binary packages are in
C:\Users\PaulBernal\AppData\Local\Temp\Rtmpk7SkD5\downloaded_packages
> library("RODBC")
Error in library("RODBC") : there is no package called ?RODBC?
> library("RODBCext")
Error in library("RODBCext") : there is no package called ?RODBCext?
If packages RODBC and RODBCext were successfully installed, why am I not
able to load those packages?
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Paul

I don't use Windows, but this looks like a Windows permissions issue, no? You could try moving them yourself manually or create another library directory that R can access to put them in. ... or wait and hope for advice from someone who uses Windows to give you a definitive answer.

The messages tell you that the package files were successfully downloaded and extracted, but could not be added to the package library. Try making sure all instances of R are closed down before running the install.packages function. Also, just to be clear, avoid running R "As Administrator" under Windows unless you plan to fix the resulting mess yourself. -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.
