Hi,
I am trying to install "Rstrams" package, I have download the
Rstreams_1.1-2.tar.gz in my computer and I tried the following
1.
install.packages("Rstreams",lib=.lib.loc,"c:/R/package/Rstreams_1.1-2.tar.gz"
)
I got
'lynx' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Error in httpclient(url, check.MIME.type = TRUE, file = destfile) :
Not an http:// URL
In addition: Warning messages:
1: wget not found
2: cmd execution failed with error code 1 in: shell("lynx
-help", invisible = TRUE)
2.install.packages("Rstreams", .lib.loc, CRAN =
getOption("CRAN"), method = "auto", available =
NULL,.lib.loc)
I got
'lynx' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Error in httpclient(url, check.MIME.type = TRUE, file = destfile) :
Not an http:// URL
In addition: Warning messages:
1: wget not found
2: cmd execution failed with error code 1 in: shell("lynx -help",
invisible = TRUE)
it seems no matter what I use, I always get the same error message
What should I do?
Thanks
Hongli Li

You can find wget at http://www.interlog.com/~tcharron/wgetwin.html If you want to install a package you have downloaded separately you need to a) download the right package (the .zip binary, not the .tar source) b) read the documentation of install.packages() to find out how to specify a package file rather than a website: the file is the first argument to install.packages() and the CRAN argument needs to be NULL. -thomas -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- 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 !)
