FAQs related to installing R, RStudio, TinyTeX at Kellogg

FAQs for Installing R, RStudio, and TinyTeX

@ Kellogg School of Management

1. /usr/local/bin not writable

I see this error when I install TinyTeX:

add_link_dir_dir: destination /usr/local/bin not writable, no links from /Users/hagen/Library/TinyTeX/bin/x86_64-darwin. add of symlinks had 1 error(s), see messages above. add of symlinks had 1 error(s), see messages above. tlmgr: An error has occurred. See above messages. Exiting.

This is an issue on some Macs, where that folder /usr/local/bin is not writable by your user account for some reason. Here's how to fix it:
