I am not able to create output in Rstudio using knitr package. I am having this problem for weeks. I am getting the following error:

"Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 43

In addition I am getting this Warning message:

running command '"C:/Users/Krish/AppData/Local/Pandoc/pandoc" +RTS -K512m -RTS assignment1.utf8.md --to latex --from markdown+autolink_bare_uris+ascii_identifiers+tex_math_single_backslash-implicit_figures --output assignment1.pdf --template "C:\Users\Krish\Documents\R\win-library\3.1\rmarkdown\rmd\latex\default-1.14.tex" --highlight-style tango --latex-engine xelatex --variable "geometry:margin=1in"' had status 43"

I had the same problem! Please make sure you don't have minor errors in your LaTeX markup. In my example after changing the location of the comma from $X,$ to $X$, my pandoc error disappeared and I was able to render my pdf.
