Hi- I am using R version 3.4.3 and installing RStan following instructions listed here: https://github.com/stan-dev/rstan/wiki/Installing-RStan-on-Windows#toolchain and am unsuccessful in initializing brms, which I believe is associated with an inability to compile the C++ data through the RTools program. Any advice for how to resolve this issue would be appreciated. I hope that my description of the errors is thorough and will allow someone familiar with the issue to point out my problem.
I have installed toolchain with RTools into my C:/ drive and have selected the path box.
When I check Sys.getenv(‘PATH’) it does not include the gcc line as mentioned in the instructions (beginning of output below)
"C:\Rtools\bin;C:\Program Files\R\R-3.4.3\bin\x64;c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\mingw_32 […]
Checking system(‘g++ -v’) provides a long summary that does not exactly match the output suggested on the site
Using built-in specs.

I have not created a personal MakeVars file because I cannot figure out how
When I check if toolchain is working following this code:
fx <- inline::cxxfunction( signature(x = “integer”, y = “numeric” ) , ‘
return ScalarReal( INTEGER(x)[0] * REAL(y)[0] ) ;
’ )
It returns the following error:
Error in compileCode(f, code, language = language, verbose = verbose) :
Compilation ERROR, function(s)/method(s) not created! C:\Rtools\mingw_64\bin\nm.exe: file26481be4617a.o: plugin needed to handle lto object

When I try to run an example brm this is the error:
