Hi, I've been searching through the R help archives and came across only one AIX compilation question in March, which received no public responses. I'm currently having the same problems with the "Illegal instruction" and core dump of running R 1.0.1 on AIX 4.3. Firstly, the R distribution was missing some FORTRAN routines, which I found on the net and added, by modifying src/appl/Makefile.in and src/appl/ROUTINES (otherwise ld complains about missing symbols). The ten routines were: dasum, daxpy, dcopy, ddot, dnrm2, drot, drotg, dscal, dswap and idamax. (I found this strange. I would have thought that all necessary core files should have been included??) It then compiled with gcc 2.95.2 and g77, but the 'make test' dumps core, when running R. I've just tried compiling R 1.1.0, and it's throwing out a lot of errors about missing C routine symbols. Has anyone compiled and succesfully run R on AIX 4.3.3? Cheers, Peter -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
