[R] Problems with Rcmd check on Win 2000 & rw1062
When I run Rcmd check on a package on my Windows 2000 machine, I get a series of error messages like the following: * checking generic/method consistency ...c:\DOCUME~1\R5018~1.WOO\LOCALS~1\Temp/R utils138414013: cannot open c:DOCUME~1R5018~1.WOOLOCALS~1Temp/Rin138408157: no s uch file It looks as if a Windows style path to the temp directory is not being interpreted correctly, with backslashes not being properly escaped. However, I define three different environment variables to point to a temp directory (TMP, TEMP, TMPDIR), and all definitions use forward slashes, Unix-style, so Rcmd check has found some other way to construct the path to a temp directory. Does anyone know how I can fix this so that Rcmd check will work? --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-mingw32 arch = i386 os = mingw32 system = i386, mingw32 status major = 1 minor = 6.2 year = 2003 month = 01 day = 10 language = R Windows 2000 Professional (build 2195) Service Pack 2.0 Search Path: .GlobalEnv, package:OPmodels, package:odesolve, package:ctest, Autoloads, package:base R.

[R] Problems with Rcmd check on Win 2000 & rw1062
Rcmd check uses TMPDIR, so what exactly do you have that set to? It does look to me as if you do not have it set correctly, but you can debug the Perl to find out what it is doing. It certainly works for me iff TMPDIR is set correctly.

[R] Problems with Rcmd check on Win 2000 & rw1062
I do not understand why, but changing the definition of TMPDIR to C:/tmp
solved the problem.
