I have just started using blogdown and I have created a project by using template Hugo-Xmin. In RStudio, when creating the project in blogdown, it created some predefined posts, I am editing this one:
/content/post/2015-07-23-r-rmarkdown.Rmd
Adding a tikz image
Following this question and the bookdown documentation on engines, I modified the afore-mentioned file by adding this snippet:
This is a tikz picture:
```{r, echo=FALSE, engine='tikz', out.width='90%', fig.ext=if (knitr:::is_latex_output()) 'pdf' else 'png', fig.cap='Some caption.'}
\begin{tikzpicture}[scale=.7]
\draw [fill=gray!30,very thick] (0,-1) rectangle (5,1);
\draw [very thick] (5, 0) -- (13,0);
\node [below] at (2,-1) {\large Hello};
\node [below, align=center] at (0,-1) {\large Two\\ lines};
\end{tikzpicture}
```
Failed to process the post
As soon as I save (since I have the serve on), but also when using blogdown::build_site(), I get this:

Troubleshooting
I checked my engines and saw that tikz is actually among them:

The documentation said that some engines are shipped in bookdown and not knitr, but I can see tikz is there! So I have the engine, but still I cannot use it. What am I doing wrong?

This turns out to be an issue in knitr which I just fixed on Github (I'm not sure if it is a bug of pdflatex). You may try
remotes::install_github('yihui/knitr')
Note that you will need to install two additional R packages, magick and pdftools, if they haven't been installed yet.

I recently installed pandoc 2.4 on Windows and the conversion failed with error 1 occurs for all knitting. I can't knit html, word, and pdf.
The error says

Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 1

This happens to even the raw basic template rmd file.
I am using a closed network without internet connection and limited writing permission. Previously I was able to knit rmd files located in documents folder generating outputs in same location.

I have had this issue as well. Mapping the network drive where my R project was stored by following the instructions here solved the issue for me.
I would like to generate a PDF via RMarkdown from the RGui.
I am able to knit the file via RStudio but it fails every time via RGui.
This is "essai.r" file that contains the render command.
library(rmarkdown)
library(knitr)
Sys.setenv(RSTUDIO_PANDOC="C:/Program Files (x86)/Pandoc")
rmarkdown::render("essai.Rmd", output_format = "pdf_document", clean = FALSE)
This is "essai.rmd"

title: "test"
output: pdf_document
---
This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see <http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com>.
When you click the **Knit** button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
You can also embed plots, for example:
```{r, echo=FALSE}
plot(cars)
```
Note that the `echo = FALSE` parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
And this is my configuration:

I made sure that both files are saved as UTF-8. And also I tried to change my system locale.
What am I missing?

I set R_LIBS_USER to my desired library path in my system environment variables (I already moved my old library to that location). RStudio respects that path when I start the program without opening an existing file. But when I open RStudio by clicking on an .Rproj file, it loads an old lib path and ignores R_LIBS_USER (.libPaths() returns the old path). I searched my %UserProfile% directory and project directory for mentions of the old string. I can't find anything in %UserProfile% directory except in the history_database file, and likewise in the project directory, except for one mention in .Rproj-user\B37F6204\pcs\packages-pane.pper:
{
"installOptions" : {
"installDependencies" : true,
"installFromRepository" : true,
"libraryPath" : "<my-userprofile-path>/R/win-library/3.3"
}
}
This looked promising, but when I changed it, RStudio still ignores it when I open the project.
Clicking on .Rproj files is pretty convenient so I'd like to fix this.

Sorry, but pdflatex did not succeed.

I saw the same problem being reported by few others but did not find a proposed way to solve.

I have one Ubuntu14.04 laptops,
when I run below with RStudio Viewer, it work fines.
> library(dygraphs)
> dygraph(ldeaths, main = "All", group = "lung-deaths")
After I set below options to run in external browser,
options("viewer"=NULL)
dygraph(ldeaths, main = "All", group = "lung-deaths")
The browser will open files with below URL but nothing show:
http://localhost:18186/session/viewhtmla4c45554fcb/index.html
If I do the same thing in R console
library(dygraphs)
dygraph(ldeaths, main = "All", group = "lung-deaths")
it work fine and will open with URL with file:///tmp/RtmpE7nROm/viewhtmlf371b65fc2c/index.html
Questions1: Why Rstudio will open "http://localhost:18186..." instead of "file://....."?
Questions2: What commands in Rstudio to revert the display show in Viewer again? Currently I have to quit Rstudio and restart to get show in Viewer again.
PS: I doesn't see this issue in another Linux Labtops, not sure what configuration will causing this, hope someone can help to answer!
