Error in sink(type = "output") : invalid connection

Modeling
1

The model is

fit <-
brm(data = d,family = gaussian,
y ~0+ Intercept + treatment,
prior = c(prior(normal(0,2), class = b),
prior(student_t(3,1,1), class = sigma)),
seed =1)

I have an error although I installed rstan and stanheaders

Compiling Stan program...
make cmd is
  make -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-41~1.2/etc/x64/Makeconf" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-41~1.2/share/make/winshlib.mk" CXX='$(CXX14) $(CXX14STD)' CXXFLAGS='$(CXX14FLAGS)' CXXPICFLAGS='$(CXX14PICFLAGS)' SHLIB_LDFLAGS='$(SHLIB_CXX14LDFLAGS)' SHLIB_LD='$(SHLIB_CXX14LD)' SHLIB="file1bf099c2961.dll" WIN=64 TCLBIN=64 OBJECTS="file1bf099c2961.o"

Can you try the steps in the RStan Getting Started guide here: Configuring C Toolchain for Windows · stan-dev/rstan Wiki · GitHub

I did and now I has different error message

We’re having some compatibility issues with R4.2 and the CRAN rstan, can I get you to restart your R session and then install the preview of the next rstan version using:

remove.packages(c("rstan","StanHeaders"))
install.packages("StanHeaders", repos = c("https://mc-stan.org/r-packages/", getOption("repos")))
install.packages("rstan", repos = c("https://mc-stan.org/r-packages/", getOption("repos")))

It works now. Thank you very much.
