Compiling Rstudio Server on el-capitan

Question

I used to run a rstudio server on my mac about a year ago. However, I didnt use it much so I deleted it. However, now I need to set it up again. In the meantime, I´ve changed to el capitan and the instructions on https://iangow.wordpress.com/2013/05/01/rstudio-server-on-mac-os-x/ is failing. First I was having trouble caompiling due to OpenSSL and el capitan. However, I believe that was taken care of by [Rstudio server installation el capitan. Now, after sudo make install it compiles but in the end it throws an error that I cannot decipher. Anye ideas what is wrong here?

EDIT 1- as per the suggestion to remove suggested I removed the rstudio directory and did a clean install. However- I get the same error in the end.

    clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Have you tried removing the CMake cache, or destroying the build folder and recreating it? — Jonathan, Nov 02 '15 at 23:24

I got the same problem after upgrading my OS X on my Mac. Note that my Macbook already had Homebrew.

Below is what I did to install RStudio Server:

Install the new version of Xcode
brew reinstall gcc
brew install rstudio-server
