I've tried installing the MacOS X binaries for R available at: http://www.bioconductor.org/CRAN/ I'm running MacOS X version 10.2.8. I get a message indicating the installation is successful, but when I double-click on the R icon that shows up in my Applications folder, the application seems to try to open but closes immediately. I looked for /Library/Frameworks/R.framework (by typing ls /Library/Frameworks) and it does not appear. A global search for R.framework yields no results, so it seems that the installation is not working. (I was going to try command line execution.) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! - RSS Ruben S.

Hi! I'm afraid we need some more bits of information. Do you have administrative privileges?, which version of R are you trying to install?, Have you read the RMacOSX FAQ?

Can also inspect the package contents to ensure scripts have execute permission as that would also cause the behavior you describe. ---------------------------------------------------------- SIGSIG -- signature too long (core dumped)
