Having trouble updating rstan to the latest version on Linux. These are the errors I get: /R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.3/StanHeaders/include/src/stan/lang/ast/node/conditional_op.hpp:40: error: ISO C++ forbids initialization of member ‘has_var_’ /R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.3/StanH…

[image] Error when installing Rstan 2.16.2 Interfaces You temporarily have to add -DBOOST_PHOENIX_NO_VARIADIC_EXPRESSION to the end of the CXXFLAGS or CPPFLAGS line in the ~/.R/Makevars file.

You need to add -std=c++11 to CXXFLAGS in your ~/.R/Makevars file

Thanks for your feedback! Unfortunately I don’t have much of a computer science background, so I can’t really understand what that sentence means.

It isn’t a computer science thing; it is just operating an account on a Linux server. Once you log into a shell, execute echo "CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11" >> ~/.R/Makevars and then it should be fine.

Ok thanks so much for you patience! Sorry I also don’t have very much experience with Linux either :-/ I don’t seem to have the hidden file .R in my home directory. How should I proceed?

What compiler and version are you using?

Hi! I’m facing exactly the same issue. I’m compiling with gcc with the following version: gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-18) (GCC) Thank you!

If you are on Red Hat Enterprise 6 (and judging from that GCC version, that seems to be the case), I’d recommend getting (or asking the sysadmin to get) the free Red Hat Developer Toolset, which has a more up-to-date developer toolchain.
