Rstudio Command not found.

Hello folks,

rstudio spontaneously stopped working. when I type "rstudio" into the command line, bash reads out "bash: rstudio: command not found"

I tried reinstalling the rstudio-desktop-bin from the AUR both manually with makepkg and yay.

It still give me the same error.

any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Re: Rstudio Command not found.

Given that it's not likely in your path, that's not surprising.  Can you start it with the desktop file, or with the full path /usr/lib/rstudio/rstudio?

Note that this is covered in the comments on the AUR page for this package with a solution included there as well.  Though all in all this package has a handful of problems.

Did you try adding it to your PATH yet?

I have the same problem as "PRAY4ENEMY".

by trying to run the full path(your suggestion) /usr/lib/rstudio/rstudio
my terminal reads out the following:

 [Leo99Bozz@penguin ~]$ /usr/lib/rstudio/rstudio
/usr/lib/rstudio/rstudio: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Could there be a permission issue?

I run

 pacman -Ql rstudio-desktop-bin 

and i found this line interesting:

 rstudio-desktop-bin /usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop 

thefore i tryed to run "/usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop" and this is the result:

[Leo99Bozz@penguin ~]$ /usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop
-bash: /usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop: Permission denied 

PS. I renamed arch as penguin since i installed it on chomeos

Best regard

Re: Rstudio Command not found.

You bumped and old thread to say you had the same problem, then you elaborate the details of a completely unrelated problem ... with the footnote that you are using a different OS?

I am going to close this thread as it seems dead and has been hijacked.
