Rstan error message (cannot complie the 8 scholl example)

General

Hi all,

Recently my Rstan does not work normally. When I tried to re-do some previous analysis, there is some error message like ‘parser failed’. Then I tried to reinstall rstan and now even the 8-school example does not work for me with the following error message:

R code:

library("rstan") # observe startup messages
options(mc.cores = parallel::detectCores())
rstan_options(auto_write = TRUE)
schools_dat <- list(J = 8, 
                    y = c(28,  8, -3,  7, -1,  1, 18, 12),
                    sigma = c(15, 10, 16, 11,  9, 11, 10, 18))

fit <- stan(file = 'schools.stan', data = schools_dat)

Error output:

> fit <- stan(file = 'schools.stan', data = schools_dat)
make cmd is
