I installed RStudio Server on my Ubuntu 17.1 server. But none of my packages are not installing:
eg. When I am trying to install RMySQL package, I get the following error:
trying URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/RMySQL_0.10.14.tar.gz'

------------------------- ANTICONF ERROR ---------------------------
Configuration failed because no mysql client library was found. Try installing:
* deb: libmariadbclient-dev | libmariadb-client-lgpl-dev (Debian, Ubuntu)
* rpm: mariadb-connector-c-devel | mariadb-devel | mysql-devel (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL)
* csw: mysql56_dev (Solaris)
* brew: mariadb-connector-c (OSX)
If you already have a mysql client library installed, verify that either
mariadb_config or mysql_config is on your PATH. If these are unavailable
you can also set INCLUDE_DIR and LIB_DIR manually via:
R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars='INCLUDE_DIR=... LIB_DIR=...'

installation of package ‘RMySQL’ had non-zero exit status
As per the suggestions, I tried the following on my console:

and
sudo apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev
but I still get the same error. please help
The error message indicates that make is not installed. This indicates that the make utility is not available on your system.
In order for R to install packages, one must install the base-r-dev package in Ubuntu. r-base-dev includes a number of packages, including one called build-essential that covers the gcc compiler and make.
To install r-base-dev, issue the following command in a linux terminal window, assuming that you have already installed r-base.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r-base-dev
Note that there may be other errors in your installation, but this one needs to be corrected before debugging any other other error messages.
