I have been having trouble with the r package "semPlot" successfully installing onto Rstudio 1.2.5033

Each time I have tried installing the semplot package I get the following error.

install.packages('semPlot')
library(semPlot)

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘semPlot’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): there is no package called ‘data.table’

I have tried installing the package that is being called to not be there (in the above case 'data.table'), but I have done this 5 or 6 times and feeling like continuous this process is insanity.

Alternatively, is there any alternative to reviewing the path diagrams from SEM if the semPlot package (for the semPaths function) continues this process?

  • I think installing `data.table` library will solve your issue. After that again install `semPlot` – UseR10085 Feb 20 '20 at 07:31
  • Hi @MMoore93, I am on R 3.6.1 and could install and load semPlot.. do you get any error when loading data.table? Or is data.table located in your library path? "data.table" %in% rownames(installed.packages()) ; is that TRUE? – StupidWolf Feb 20 '20 at 09:02

The problem seems to be with your installer not with semPlot. Try

install.packages('semPlot', dependencies = T)

would be helpful if you mention your OS
