We here at HGSI have a consultant doing some statistical work for us.
HGSI bought and installed SAS, but our consultant insists that R and
Rweb is a better solution. I do not know either package so I do not
know, hence we are ditching SAS for R and Rweb. Any comments on this
are welcom.
Now for the real problem. Rweb is very expensive (time wise). The
number of prereqs is way more than I thought when I agreed to this
project. The compiling tree looks like this
Rweb
|
-----------------------------------------------
| | |
libWWW R LaTex2HTML
|- URI |- gcc 2.8.1 |- netpbm
| | |
|- MIME-base64 |- g77 |- ghostscript
| | |
|- HTML-Parser |- GNU make |- LaTex
| | |
|- libnet |- SUNWxwinc |- dvips/dvipsk
|
|- Digest::MD5
* Perl and a www server were already installed on the machine.
** libWWW is completed
*** LaTex2HTML is spewing errors on dvips/dvipsk
All prereqs for R are installed and checked.
Ran configure script as follows
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --x-includes=/usr/openwin/include
--x-libs=/usr/openwin/lib
Compiling R gives these errors
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/R-0.64.0/src/nmath'
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/R-0.64.0/src/unix'
gcc -g -O2 -I../include -I../../src/include -c dataentry.c

Anybody have any ideas on how to make R compile cleanly?
Thanks

The line for compiling dataentry.c is $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(X_CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) -c $< and you don't seem to be picking up the $(X_CFLAGS). These come from the Makeconf file created by configure. Did you by any chance forget to remove config.cache before running configure? [for a pure Rweb application, you probably wouldn't need X at all, but the --without-x switch doesn't actually work, I suspect] -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.

Without additional info it is hard to comment.

Autoconf is pretty good at figuring things like this out. Most people I know are using X11R6 now, but I think that openwindows is current enough for it to do the job.> Compiling R gives these errors > > make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/R-0.64.0/src/nmath' > make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/R-0.64.0/src/unix' > gcc -g -O2 -I../include -I../../src/include -c dataentry.c > In file included from dataentry.c:24: > dataentry.h:22: X11/X.h: No such file or directory > dataentry.h:23: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory > dataentry.h:24: X11/Xutil.h: No such file or directory > dataentry.h:25: X11/keysym.h: No such file or directory > dataentry.h:26: X11/cursorfont.h: No such file or directory > make[2]: *** [dataentry.o] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/R-0.64.0/src/unix' > make[1]: *** [R] Error 1 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/R-0.64.0/src' > make: *** [R] Error 1 > > > Anybody have any ideas on how to make R compile cleanly?The path to the X11 include files is not being set. Try letting the configure script discover the location of them. If that fails, do the configure and then try setting the correct lines in Makeconf. My lines on Solaris look like X_CFLAGS = -I/usr/local/X11R6/include X_LIBS = -L/usr/local/X11R6/lib -R/usr/local/X11R6/lib -lX11 X_PRE_LIBS = -lSM -lICE X_EXTRA_LIBS = -lsocket -lnsl which suggests that something like X_CFLAGS = -I/usr/openwin/include X_LIBS = -L/usr/openwin/lib -lX11 X_PRE_LIBS = X_EXTRA_LIBS = -lsocket -lnsl may work under openwindows. Let us know what happens. As a last resort we can get you binaries.
