How to load rjags

As with a lot of other people, I have issues loading and installing rjags.

I get the error:

library(rjags)
Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rjags', details:
  call: fun(libname, pkgname)
  error: Failed to locate any version of JAGS version 3

The rjags package is just an interface to the JAGS library
Make sure you have installed JAGS-3.0.0.exe or higher from
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/mcmc-jags/files

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘rjags’

I am running R 3.2.2 on a PC (Windows 10), and have the JAGS programme installed at: C:\Program Files\JAGS\JAGS-4.0.0

Is there a way to convince R that JAGS is really, truly and honestly, installed? I even have it open in the background?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Although it is not yet on CRAN, you can download the rjags packages for JAGS 4.0.0 from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/mcmc-jags/files/rjags/4/

I have solved the problem. It appears that rjags is not compatible with JAGS 4.0, you can install JAGS 3.0 at the following address: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mcmc-jags/files/JAGS/3.x/Windows/
