Greetings,
I am trying to install R (0.63.2) on a Digital Unix 4.0b
Alpha Server 2100A using gcc 2.8.1 and f77 v 0.5.2.3. It
seems to compile OK. However, when I try to run R I get
the following message:
R : Copyright 1999, The R Development Core Team
Version 0.63.2 (January 12, 1999)

Type "?contributors" for a list.
Type "demo()" for some demos, "help()" for on-line help,
or
"help.start()" for a HTML browser interface to help.
Type "q()" to quit R.
Floating exception
Any thoughts on what the problem ("FLOATING
EXCEPTION") might be would be helpful. I am slightly
suspect of the fortran compiler but can not say for certain
that it is the problem. Many thanks in advance.
ALAN

This is the same problem I had with the same gcc 2.8.1 and f77 combination. R would compile but wouldn't run without problems. What finally worked for me was f2c (I don't have Dec's fortran) and DEC's cc. I set the c compiler to cc by typing CC=cc export CC and run configure with ./configure --with-f2c Jonathan Yuen phone: 46 18 672369 Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences fax: 46 18 672890 Box 7044 email replies to S 750 07 Uppsala, SWEDEN Jonathan.Yuen at tvs.slu.se -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- 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 !)

Reading the list has prompted me to try installing R on one of our Alpha's once again. The end product of all the suggestions is the following when I try make ../../aux/GETSYMBOLS mkdir ../../include Make: Unrecognized modifier '; ls COPYRIGHT COPYRIGHT.ftn Makefile.in ROUTINES *.[cfh]'. Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. My collegues here say the best option is to try and get R set up our our SUN (Solaris) but guess what I can't do that either. Has anyone any suggestions as to where I should start. I am happy to try and increase my UNIX background - that would'nt be difficult. Any pointers welcomed!
