fatal error: cannot execute 'cc1': execvp: Permission denied

I created a conda environment on a HPC node and want to install a R package called "ape" but got a fatal error message.

when I run install.packages"ape"

I got the error messagex86_64-conda-linux-gnu-cc: fatal error: cannot execute 'cc1': execvp: Permission denied.

I installed the gcc by conda install -c conda-forge gxx_linux-64 but it still doesn't work.

I don't have permission to use apt-get install gcc since I am not an admin of the HPC. What can I do to fix this? Any recommendations will be appreciated.

Thank you.
