Morning All: Having problems installing this one into my R setup and wondered if anyone on the list had the same problem and found a workable solution. First to the system particulars: OS is the Hardy Heron edition of Ubuntu Linux R version is 2.13.1 Java installation is sun-java6 Next up is the result of javareconf: R CMD javareconf Java interpreter : /usr/bin/java Java version : 1.5.0 Java home path : /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-4.2-1.5.0.0/jre Java compiler : /usr/bin/javac Java headers gen.: /usr/bin/javah Java archive tool: /usr/bin/jar Java library path: /usr/lib/../lib/gcj-4.2-81:/usr/lib/jni JNI linker flags : -L/usr/lib/../lib/gcj-4.2-81 -L/usr/lib/jni -ljvm JNI cpp flags : Updating Java configuration in /etc/R Done. What little I've been able to find on this problem suggests that the blank space beside the cpp flags variable is the key point, but all the notes I found suggest programming solutions outside of my abilities. Are there any simple and to the point solutions that correct this issue, or am I SOL for using the package? Any help would be greatly appreciated as install of other packages and R commander plugins depend on solving it. Oh, yes.

Perhaps try running it as root (I have had better luck doing sudo su THEN R CMD javareconf) If that's not possible (root access), try: R CMD javareconf -e HTH.. cj On 08/15/2011 11:19 AM, Brian Lunergan wrote:> Morning All: > > Having problems installing this one into my R setup and wondered if > anyone on the list had the same problem and found a workable solution. > > First to the system particulars: > > OS is the Hardy Heron edition of Ubuntu Linux > R version is 2.13.1 > Java installation is sun-java6 > > Next up is the result of javareconf: > > R CMD javareconf > Java interpreter : /usr/bin/java > Java version : 1.5.0 > Java home path : /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-4.2-1.5.0.0/jre > Java compiler : /usr/bin/javac > Java headers gen.: /usr/bin/javah > Java archive tool: /usr/bin/jar > Java library path: /usr/lib/../lib/gcj-4.2-81:/usr/lib/jni > JNI linker flags : -L/usr/lib/../lib/gcj-4.2-81 -L/usr/lib/jni -ljvm > JNI cpp flags : > > Updating Java configuration in /etc/R > Done. > > What little I've been able to find on this problem suggests that the > blank space beside the cpp flags variable is the key point, but all the > notes I found suggest programming solutions outside of my abilities.

Brian, rJava is another package _which just works from the prebuild binary_ if you use a current version of Ubuntu (or Debian). I think you cannot reasonably expect us to cater to your stated preference of running an Ubuntu version that has skipped five or so Ubuntu updates. Sorry, Dirk -- Two new Rcpp master classes for R and C++ integration scheduled for New York (Sep 24) and San Francisco (Oct 8), more details are at http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2011/08/04#rcpp_classes_2011-09_and_2011-10 http://www.revolutionanalytics.com/products/training/public/rcpp-master-class.php
