R help - Feb 2012 - problem working directory WinBUGS using R

Hi,



I am trying to use WinBUGS using R, but i am having some problems using
bugs function:



out <- bugs(data = win.data, inits = inits, parameters.to.save = params,
model.file = "model.txt",
n.thin = nt, n.chains = nc, n.burnin = nb, n.iter = ni, debug = TRUE, DIC TRUE,
working.directory = getwd())



ls()

WinBUGS file is in working directory=D:/Line/documents but R looks for
winBugs at C:/Program Files/WinBUGS14/.

I already had changed the working directory for D:/Line/documents using
setwd () function and it still appears this error message:



In file(con, "rb") :
  cannot open file 'c:/Program
Files/WinBUGS14//System/Rsrc/Registry.odc':
No such file or directory
Erro em bugs.run(n.burnin, bugs.directory, WINE = WINE, useWINE = useWINE,
:
  WinBUGS executable does not exist in c:/Program Files/WinBUGS14/
Além disso: Warning message:
In list.files(bugs.directory) :
  list.files: 'c:/Program Files/WinBUGS14/' is not a readable directory



Can anyone help me?



Thank you.

You have installed WinBUGS there? A very unusual location for a software 
installation. Anyway, use the argument "bugs.directory" as ?bugs 
suggests to set the directory where WinBUGS lives.

You may want to switch to a more recent version for controlling BUGS 
sampling, e.g. the BRugs package that does it more "integrated" into R
or R2OpenBUGS as the OpenBUGS interface.
