Hi all, new user here. I'm trying to install R on a Sun Solaris machine ver 2.7. I've encountered a previously documented problem regarding RSI install and have gotten past that. At this point configure runs to completion. Now, make is a different story. When I run make here is what I get. <Wed8:22pm>-moriarty:/moriarty/Tools/R- 138% make cp: ../../bin: is a directory install: cp ../../bin ./BATCH/bin failed *** Error code 2 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `R' Current working directory /moriarty/Tools/R-1.1.1/src/scripts *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `R' Current working directory /moriarty/Tools/R-1.1.1/src *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `R' Any ideas? I've specified /moriarty/Tools/R-1.1.1 as the prefix in the configure script. It's difficult for me to tell if this is a install problem or something with the way my local environment is set up. Any help would be appreciated. Derrick -- Derrick Snowden NOAA / AOML / PhOD 4301 Rickenbacker Cswy.

The Makefile at this point is trying to do @$(MKINSTALLDIRS) $(top_builddir)/bin @for f in $(SCRIPTS_S); do \ $(INSTALL_SCRIPT) $(srcdir)/$${f} $(top_builddir)/bin; \ done but I don't see how this could expand to cp ../../bin ./BATCH/bin Maybe you have white space in some path? What does grep INSTALL Makeconf give in the top-level build dir? -k -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- 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 !)
