Error messages: targets::tar_meta(fields = error, complete_only = TRUE)

Hi,
I tried to use timaR a few times this last month and I always ended up with the same error message during the sanitization of the spectra:
Warning: Error in : Error running targets::tar_make()
Error messages: targets::tar_meta(fields = error, complete_only = TRUE)

The version used was the 2.9.6 as for today but I am pretty sure I encountered the same problem with the 2.9.5. The only modification made to the base parameters was to select the "summarize results to one row per feature" option. Otherwise, a .mgf, a .csv and a .tsv were imported, but no Sirius job.
Where does the error come from and how can I resolve it ?
Thank you in advance !

Hi @adrien-jagora,

I just added some new features to the last version I planned releasing later in the afternoon if all tests go well! This will be 2.9.7 then.

In the meantime, could you try removing any leftover from previous versions? Both in ~/.tima and delete the repository you cloned and clone it freshly? This should ensure you got the latest version without eventual residuals.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but the new version should hopefully be worth it 😉

I have uninstalled R, RTools, RStudio and suppressed my tima-r folder, yet I still got the same error. Is there another way to make sure I suppressed everything related to an old version ?

[Adafede]

I meant uninstalling any previous version of timaR, R, RTools and Rstudio should not impact it.
If you can copy/paste the lines you obtain when running the Rscript inst/scripts/install.R command might eventually help

[adrien-jagora]

Those were the lines I obtained:
You should install RTools if not already done
You already have the latest version (2.9.7) skipping
Creating cache at C:/Users/adrie/.tima

[Adafede]

Yes, so it found a previous version of timaR you need to uninstall first

I suppressed everything, reinstalled it and still I have the same issue
