I have the following error:> library(RMySQL)Error in fun(...) : A MySQL Registry key was found but the folder C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Tools for 5.0\/. doesn't contain a bin or lib/opt folder. That's where we need to find libmySQL.dll. Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'RMySQL' Error: package/namespace load failed for 'RMySQL' This happens after I install MySQL Tools. Seems that R is pointing to the wrong registry. Can anyone help?

Just re-run the MySQL installer again and be sure to read the steps carefully. Best, Jeff -- http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/JeffreyHorner
