Thank you for your help. I??m sorry that I found not the right entries in the R-devel. Now, I have again a problem. After installing all needed things I have run Rcmd INSTALL -l ../mypkg and respectively make mypkg By running Rcmd check I get following message: * checking for working latex ...Error: environment variable TMPDIR not set (or set to unusable value) and no default available. At D:\Programme\R\rw1090\share\perl/R/Utils.pm line 153 By running Rcmd built I get following message: Please set TMPDIR to a valid temporary directory My TMPDIR is on "D:\temp" , which is known by R. In "Utils.pm" I have no idea how to set TMPDIR at sub R_tempfile Maybe this problem was discussed in Oct 2002. Can anybody help me again please?

Hi! In the bat file where you specified the paths to perl, miktex bin directory you can also set the TMPDIR by: set TMPDIR =c:/path/toAnExistingTempDirectory Eryk *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 5/27/2004 at 2:20 PM TEMPL Matthias wrote:>Thank you for your help.
