R version 4.2.1 (2022-06-23 ucrt)
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)
Running under: Windows 10 x64 (build 19044)

I’m trying to install stan following the instructions here.

I downloaded the RTools42 installer and ran it.
(At some point I also tried RTools40, but it didn’t work for me, so uninstalled it again.)

I added C:\rtools42\usr\bin to PATH, but found that c++.exe and g++.exe were located in C:\rtools42\x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix\bin , so I added this to PATH as well. My PATH is now pretty crowded:

Sys.getenv(“PATH”)
[1] “C:\rtools42/x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix/bin;C:\rtools42/usr/bin;\usr\bin;\usr\bin;C:\Program Files\R\R-4.2.1\bin\x64;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2\;C:\Program Files\dotnet\;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Users\janfl\AppData\Local\activestate\cache\bin;C:\Users\janfl\AppData\Local\ActiveState\StateTool\release\bin;C:\Users\janfl\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\texlive\2021\bin\win32;C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PyCharm Community Edition 2021.3.1\bin;;C:\Users\janfl\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\bin;C:\rtools42\x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix\bin;C:\rtools42\usr\bin;C:\rtools42;C:\MinGW\bin;;C:/Program Files/RStudio/resources/app/bin/quarto/bin”

I found that RTools42 did not contain mingw32-make.exe, so I installed MinGW from sourceforge.

When I now run mingw32-make build in the command line in the cmdstan-2.30.1 folder, I get the following error message. I suppose it might be related to this problem here. Would really appreciate help.

To use RTools42 with cmdstan you need to create a make/local file in your cmdstan directory and add the entries:

CXXFLAGS += -Wno-nonnull
 TBB_CXXFLAGS= -U__MSVCRT_VERSION__ -D__MSVCRT_VERSION__=0x0E00

Thank you for your help.

I did this and it changed the effect of ‘mingw32-make build’.

After the compilation (a few minutes) I was asked to add ‘\cmdstan-2.30.1\stan\lib\stan_math\lib\tbb’ (with forwardslash instead of backslash, which I adjusted) to PATH.

After doing this, I tried: ‘mingw32-make examples/bernoulli/bernoulli.exe’ as indicated here in cmdstan-2.30.1 and got the following error:

I looked around and also did not find bernoulli.exe in the bernoulli folder. Would you be so kind as to help me with this problem, too?

I can’t see any other errors in there. Can you clean and rebuild cmdstan and then try again?

mingw32-make clean
mingw32-make build

I’m absolutely new to stan (and much of what I needed to do to get it installed), but I think it worked.
Now I can focus on the conceptual aspects again. Thank you so much!
