I'm using R 1.4.1 under Windows 2000 and am experiencing difficulty
installing a package. I've included an example output using Rcmd build,
but the same problem occurs with Rcmd check and Rcmd INSTALL. The error
(make[1]: /bin/sh.exe: Command not found) is not a new one - it's
referenced in readme.packages among other locations. I've placed a copy
of sh.exe in C:\bin, but it didn't fix the problem. I've also checked
to ensure that perl can be found. Actually, I've made an extensive
effort to solve the problem prior to sending this help request. So, any
assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance.

Hmm. Since you could run "make" a couple of lines above, I think the above means that sh cannot find perl (in spite of your checking). What happens if you start sh.exe manually and type "perl" into it? What is your PATH and where have you put perl? -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.

Hi,
I am not pretty sure of what I will say, because I am not an expert of
Cygwin and so, but I believe it treat directories like that:
C:\dir\subdir becomes /dir/subdir
D:\dir\subdir becomes /cygdrive/d/dir/subdir (save for all drives except C)
In your cas, you have: make: Entering directory
`/cygdrive/c/R/rw1041/src/gnuwin32' which means that cygwin considers drive
C like any other. May be that the "special case" of /dir/subdir is
only
applied to the drive where cygwin resides, and may be that you have put
cygwin in another drive than C?
If this is is the reason, try:
1) to put cygwin in drive C - or -
2) tu place sh.exe in the /bin dir of the same drive as cygwin.
If you try this, please, tell me what's happen.
Best,
Philippe Grosjean
