R help - Sep 2009 - R-crash when loading workspace - Windows

Dear all,

One day when I tried to load an existing workspace (when opening R or by
load()), R crashed without any error notification.
The day before I had worked  and saved my workspace without any trouble.
At first I though it was a memory problem (workspace reaching 180Mo) or related
to a particular script or command, so I start a new workspace. Everything was
ok, that script and others working. Then I saved the workspace (55Mo) and tried
to open it, without any result : R crashes without any notification again.
This occurs only with Windows. 

Does someone know how to solve that problem?

Regards,

Edwige.

You need to come up with a simple scheme to reproduce it, and then 
someone else will debug it, or you need to debug it yourself.

If you're willing to let me download the saved workspace, I could give 
it a try.  (I can't accept an email that big, you'll need to put it up 
for http or ftp download.)

Hi
Actually there is no more trouble with R 2.9.2 version. I was using 2.5.0 and
really needed to update!
Thanks anyway

Edwige

Could you put the offending workspace file
on a website and also tell us the version of
R that you were using?  Then someone could
try reproducing the problem and see what
is going on.  (There was a bug in reading
such files that was fixed a few months ago.)
