Updated R to 3.6 and all hell broke loose

Summary:

Updated R and Rstudio, and all hell broke loose

Description:

I've been running the rethinking package, which uses rstan, for about 6 months - no problem. I updated R today, and all of a sudden things have gone haywire.

I uninstalled and re-installed rstan (and all other packages, for that matter), including updating Rtools. No luck. When I try to run the schools example directly from the Rstan "getting started" page, I get the error listed below

The C++ toolchain passes the test
I have also tried disabling the C++ toolchain configuration (which is noted to sometimes cause problems). No luck. Exact same issue.

I have de-installed and re-installed from scratch (R, then Rstan, then other toolboxes), but still no luck.

Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. BTW - I'm just an ordinary scientist, not a developer or c-scientist ...so I would appreciate advice being "dummed down" as much as possible. TIA

Reproducible Steps:

Followed the steps on the Get Started page EXACTLY

Current Output:

Error in compileCode(f, code, language = language, verbose = verbose) :

Expected Output:

RStan Version:

The version of RStan you are running (e.g., from packageVersion("rstan"))

R Version:

2.18.12

Operating System:

Windows 10

まず、RStan Get Startedページのschools例をWindows 10上で再現します。その際、報告されているR、RStan、Rtools、RStudioのバージョンを使用します。BoostとStanHeadersのパスで始まるコンパイラ出力を調べ、その結果を文書化されているtoolchainの設定と比較します。環境の不一致またはコンパイル失敗を特定し、動作する例を確認できれば完了です。
