I updated R to 4.3 and reinstalled all the packages I had previously. After updating, I am able to compile my stan model but when I try to fit the model, I get error:
Error in unserialize(socklist[[n]]) : error reading from connection
I have tried re-installing everything. The problem may involve needing to “Configure C++ Toolchain”. I tried installing the macrtools R package here (GitHub - coatless-mac/r-macos-rtools: Scripts to build an **unofficial** Rtools-esq installer for the macOS R toolchain) which “automatically installs and configures the R toolchain for compiled code on macOS” . The installation say successful, I reinstall rstan, but I still get the error.

Looking forward to your topic!

I just want to add that I just got the same error (Error in unserialize(socklist[[n]]) : error reading from connection
), but a different solution than mentioned in this thread.
My Stan script compiled successfully. When computing the posterior with ‘rstan’ with >1 core, I get the Error in unserialize(socklist[[n]]) : error reading from connection
, when computing the posterior with one core, the R session crashes (in both cases even before printing the message that the first chain was initialized).
For me, the issue was a bug in the Stan script which was not identified during compilation, and resolving this bug also resolved the error message and the posterior was computed successfully.
