Hi,
I successfully installed RStan on my iMac and Windows 10-Laptop - now after switching from iMac to Windows 10 Desktop, after a fresh installation of OS and R etc., I did not get RStan running properly.
I installed:
1.) R
2.) RTools
3.) RStudio
4.) Some packages
5.) Then I followed the Stan-Install-Instruction step-by-step…
This is what I get for the final step, the check if everything went well:
> fx <- inline::cxxfunction( signature(x = "integer", y = "numeric" ) , '
+ return ScalarReal( INTEGER(x)[0] * REAL(y)[0] ) ;
+ ' )

It seems that model fitting with rstanarm works fine, at least I tried 2, 3 models. However, brms does not work, as this package has no pre-compiled models. So, the current status seems to be that I can at least partially work with RStan, but not completely…
Any idea what the above error message means and how to address this issue?
Thanks in advance!
