Thanks. I found the reason was Rtools does not run under the new version
of R. I had to go back to as early as R 3.0.2 (September 2013) to make
Rtools work.
Any idea for a go-around? Thanks.
Which version of Rtools are you using? Current Rtools is used to build
current R (and all of its packages), so of course it works there (though
we may not have tested on the latest version of Windows, and devtools is
its own project, unrelated to Rtools).

I recently updated my R and RStudio to the latest version and now the
binary option in the "build" command in devtools stops working.
I went around and used the binary=F option which worked by I get the
.tar.gz file instead of the .zip file which I prefer.
Does anyone understand the following error message:
status 127
running 'zip' failed
I'm not totally sure, but I think that means that R cannot find the
"zip" program in order to run it.
