Description

Hi, I am new to Quatro, and have probably a very dumb question, but here we are. When rendering my first Quatro documnet I get a messagge: Error while opening file, and then this: 22% (unnamed-chunk-1)Quitting from lines 20-24 (DSS-Validation-Results-Quarto.rmarkdown) Error in read_sav("onlydss.sav") : could not find function "read_sav" Calls: .main ... withVisible -> eval_with_user_handlers -> eval -> eval Execution halted. Would appreciate any help I can get. Thank you so much!

Welcome to Quarto!

The issue is not related to Quarto, but to your R code:

Error in read_sav("onlydss.sav") : could not find function "read_sav"

As for regular R script, you need to either load the R package from which you are using read_sav() or prefix the function with the name of the R package pkg_name::read_sav().

Note that, not sharing actual code makes helping you difficult.
Sharing a small self-contained "working" (reproducible) example to work with, i.e., a complete Quarto document or a Git repository can help you help yourself and can help others to help you (here and everywhere).

You can share a Quarto document using the following syntax, i.e., using more backticks than you have in your document (usually four ````).

````qmd
---
title: "Reproducible Quarto Document"
format: html
---

This is a reproducible Quarto document using `format: html`.
It is written in Markdown and contains embedded R code.
When you run the code, it will produce a plot.

```{r}
plot(cars)
```

The end.

Last update: I deleted the quatro files and tryed rendering again and it worked. Thank you very much for your help!

Hi,

Thanx for a quick answer. I just started so there is not much in my document, only these two chunks of code:
#Import data
nor <- read_sav("onlydss.sav")
aus <- readxl::read_excel("final data set of DSS.xlsx")[, 2:51]
colnames(aus) <- str_remove_all(names(aus), "0")

#Missing data analysis
all <- readRDS("complete.data")
names(all)[11:60] <- names(nor)
naniar::vis_miss(all)

When you say load the package, you mean that I need to load the package in Quatro? Packages are loaded and working fine in RStudio, and since Quatro is integrated I just assumed that there is no need to load them. If that is the case, do I just add a code junk and load packages in the Quatro document? Thank you so much for the reply, I really appreaciate it!

Update:
Loading the packages did defintaely help :).
#load packages
library(haven)
library(readxl)
library(psych)
library(lavaan)
library(stringr)

But now, Ive gotten this error message:

processing file: DSS-Validation-Results-Quarto.rmarkdown

output file: DSS-Validation-Results-Quarto.knit.md

Error in file(con, "w") : cannot open the connection
