Dear all, I am trying to use multiple version of R unpacked from CRAN deb files. It does work successfully, except for some packages installation, whether Rscript has been used. I have configured alternatives and switch R environments without any problem and can install most of the packages. '====================================================== $ update-alternatives --display R R - auto mode link currently points to /opt/R/3.2.3/usr/lib/R/bin/R /op...

Dear all, I have a very simple question. I am trying to find where islocated the rscript in mac os x. The r is installed in the applications folderbut I can not find the rscript. Thank you.Dimitris [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I think that's my first true question (rather than answer) to R-help. As R has, for a long time, become my primary scripting and programming language, I'm prefering at times to write Rscript files instead of shell scripts, notably when R has nice ways to do some of the things. On a standard standalone platform with standard R, I would start such a script with --------------------------------------- #! /usr/bin/Rscript --vanilla --------------------------------------- (yes, the "-...

Hi, if we have a file called Rscript.R that contains the following, for example: x <- 1:100 outfile = "Rscript.Rout" sink(outfile) print(x) and then we run >> source("Rscript.R") we get an output file called Rscript.Rout - great! Is there an internal variable, something like .Platform, that holds the...

Hi, A user of my `optparse` package discovered a bug in Rscript's parsing of [args]. (https://github.com/trevorld/optparse/issues/24) I've reproduced the bug on my machine including compiling and checking the development version of R. I couldn't find a mention of it in the Bug Tracker or New Features. Can be minimally reproduced on the UNIX comma...

Dear all, finally decided to do an Ubuntu upgrade and a new clean R install from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/. However, while trying to install a package from R-forge I encountered problems, involving error messages saying "Rscript execution error: No such file or directory" (see below). The same procedure works on Ubuntu 11.04 running R 2.12.1-1 from the Ubuntu repositories. The behavior of Rscript on my (11.04 + 2.13.1) machine: $ which Rscript /usr/local/bin/Rscript $ Rscript --version R scripting front-end...

One of the examples in Rscript.Rd seems mis-formatted, in that the format statement is incomplete: ## Not run: Rscript -e 'date()' -e 'format(Sys.time(), " Both Rscript.Rd in R 2.5.0 and the version at: https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/utils/man/Rscript.Rd have Rscript -e 'date()&...

Greetings, I am creating a standalone executable script using Rscript and have run into problems when I define a new S4 class. Here is a small script that demonstrates my problem: #!/usr/bin/env Rscript # # toy.Rscript -- testing S4 class creation in an Rscript setClass("toy", representation(name = "character", price = "n...

Hello, I have found what I believe to be a bug in the Linux version of the Rscript binary. Under Windows (official 64-bit 3.5.1 R distribution running on an up-to-date Win10), I can do the following (e.g. under powershell): PS H:\Users\Cesko> Rscript -e 'ls() >> ls()' character(0) character(0) which works as I expect: I am running Rscript with two arguments, na...

Hi Tomas, Thanks for the info about the binary builds; I did install it, however the bug still seems to be there in the current build. The workaround you suggested does work: C:\>"C:\Program Files\R\R-devel\bin\x64\Rscript.exe" "C:\foo bar.R" Fatal error: cannot open file 'C:\foo': No such file or directory C:\>"C:\Program Files\R\R-devel\bin\x64\Rscript.exe" --vanilla "C:\foo bar.R" What do you get when you multiply 6 * 9?

Hi, I'm trying to run on Windows 7 a scriptfile with Rscript.exe from within Excel 2010 with the following code: Call Shell(rPath & "\Rscript.exe C:\Work\Latest\_Test.R", vbHide) The good news is: the above code works perfectly, but ...

Fixed in R-devel. I will port to R-patched after more testing. Tomas On 04/26/2018 01:52 AM, Tomas Kalibera wrote: > Thanks for the report.

Dear all, I Located my previous problem: an orphan Rscript was still in /usr/local/bin, and since /usr/local/bin came before /usr/bin/ in the PATH, the "wrong" Rscript was called. Removing /usr/local/bin/Rscript solved the installation issue with Ubuntu 11.04+R 2.13.1 but I'm still unsure on the exact details why/where/when the error "Rs...

Hi R Developers, I have found what I think is a bug in the RScript.exe in version 3.5.0 of R for Windows. When I call Rscript.exe for Version 3.5 of R, it is unable to open the file if the file name or path has a space in it. As an example of what happens, I saved 2 files with the code: cat("What do you get when you multiply 6 * 9?") as C:\foo bar.R and...

Good morning R-help, I have an idiot question: I would like to use getSrcDirectory() and friends to allow me to identify where an R file has been called from when invoked using Rscript. If I understand the documentation correctly, the following example should work: In file test.R: options(keep.source=T) fn<-function(x){x<-x+1} srcDir<-getSrcDirectory(fn) print(srcDir) I attempted the following invocations of Rscript: + Rscript test.R + Rscript <ful...

Thanks Tomas. I confirm the quick workaround works for me in the DOS prompt, and when having a shortcut to RScript in SendTo, and when used in the Task Scheduler. I have not tested the R-devel version, due to my unfamiliarity with installing from source code. -----Original Message----- From: Tomas Kalibera [mailto:tomas.kalibera at gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2018 6:34 AM To: Kerry Jackson <Kerry...

Hi all, this is probably some tricky configuration file problem, but I figure someone here might have come across this in the past: In short, I've been using Rscript to run my scripts, usually successfully. But recently I've run into a strange problem, and the only function that causes an error is "print". I can create a file that contains only a print command, and it causes an error. Here is a test file, called "test.R": print(69)...
