Hello. I have "successfully" installed EDC v1.3 on linux ubuntu 14.04.
I am
running a 64bit machine with R 3.2.1 via Rstudio. I have tried ">
example1
<- EDC.get(1)" after loading the ncdf and EDCR libraries, from both the
R
terminal and Rstudio and get the following result:
Error in setwd(paste(Sys.getenv("EDC_HOME"), sep = "")) :
cannot change working directory
During installation EDC_HOME was set to /home/robert/EDC and the directory
definitely exists. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Why are you using paste() ? Why not just
setwd(Sys.getenv("EDC_HOME"))

Hi Dan, thanks for your response. The setwd is coded somewhere in the EDC.get function. I guess I could try alter the code but I assume this package should work as is. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Environmental-Data-Connector-v1-3-tp4710686p4710701.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
> During installation EDC_HOME was set to /home/robert/EDC > and the directory definitely exists.Are you sure that EDC_HOME is set now? What do you get from the following command? Sys.getenv("EDC_HOME") If that is set to something other than "", what do you get from getwd() setwd(Sys.getenv("EDC_HOME")) getwd() If it is was not set, do things work better if you first do Sys.setenv(EDC_HOME="/home/robert/EDC") Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com On Mon, Aug 3, 2015 at 8:12 AM, Robert in SA <ri.williamson at outlook.com> wrote:> Hello.

We are looking into whether this is a problem with the installer. In the meantime, if this problem pops-up again, use: Sys.setenv(EDC_HOME="/your/EDC/home/directory?) Many thanks to Bill Dunlop of Tibco for help on solving this. He also notes:> Yes. You can set EDC_HOME on your .Rprofile or Renviron (sp?) files. > See help(Startup) for details. >-Roy ********************** "The contents of this message do not reflect any position of the U.S. Government or NOAA." ********************** Roy Mendelssohn Supervisory Operations Research Analyst NOAA/NMFS Environmental Research Division Southwest Fisheries Science Center ***Note new address and phone*** 110 Shaffer Road Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Phone: (831)-420-3666 Fax: (831) 420-3980 e-mail: Roy.Mendelssohn at noaa.gov www: http://www.pfeg.noaa.gov/ "Old age and treachery will overcome youth and skill."
