Error using stan_glmer from rstanarm

Summary:

I'm trying to run the MRP demo provided at https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rstanarm/vignettes/mrp.html but am getting an error when running stan_glmer().

Description:

I run the same model using the same sample data from the website:

fit <- stan_glmer(
  cat_pref ~ factor(male) + factor(male) * factor(age) + 
    (1 | state) + (1 | age) + (1 | eth) + (1 | income),
  family = binomial(link = "logit"),
  data = sample
)

but get the following error:

SAMPLING FOR MODEL 'bernoulli' NOW (CHAIN 1).
Chain 1: empty_nested() must be true before calling recover_memory()
[1] "Error in sampler$call_sampler(args_list[[i]]) : "              "  empty_nested() must be true before calling recover_memory()"
error occurred during calling the sampler; sampling not done
Error in check_stanfit(stanfit) : 
  Invalid stanfit object produced please report bug
Error in dimnamesGets(x, value) : 
  invalid dimnames given for “dgCMatrix” object

I tried re-installing rstanarm using install.packages("rstanarm", type = "source") as suggested in the other post but it did not work.

RStanARM Version:

packageVersion("rstanarm")
[1] ‘2.19.3’

R Version:

Version 1.2.1335
© 2009-2019 RStudio, Inc.

Operating System:

macOS Catalina Version 10.15.5

Start with the MRP vignette and reproduce the exact stan_glmer() call using its sample data, recording the reported rstanarm, R, RStudio, and macOS versions. Trace the empty_nested()/recover_memory() failure through the sampling entry point and related error handling; done means a confirmed cause with a clearly scoped fix or user guidance.
