installing rmarkdown packages gives me non-zero exit status - r-markdown

Question

I am completely new to RStudio. Hence I apologize in advance for my inexpertise.
the response to install.packages("rmarkdown") the first code below.
Then, when I try to go to New file Rmarkdown it appears the alert: "Creating R Markdown documents requires an updated version of the rmarkdown package. Do you want to install this package now?"
When I accept I get the second code below.
What can I do to solve the problem? You help a total beginner please? Thank you for your patience. I am using RStudio 1.3.1093 on OS Sierra 10.12.6

Answer 1

Try install.packages(“rmarkdown”, dep = TRUE) . I also see something about the time zone, is your PC on the right time? I’ve seen installs not work because of the pc had the wrong time. You will also need to install latex with Rmarkdown
