I'm having trouble getting RMySQL to load. I was able to build it and install it (RMySQL_0.5-11.tar.gz). I was also able to build and install mysql-5.0.37. I've read many postings about this but have not found a mention of my particular problem (some closely related). I get the "unable to load shared library, no such file" error, but all the files do exist, RMySQL.so and

I don't use MySQL but I have seen messages like this before. They often have replies which indicate that you need to follow the instructions more closely. I suggest you search the list for these previous posts as I'm sure there is help there, somewhere!

Hi All, I've finally gotten around to database access using R. I'm happily extracting rows from a MySQL database using RMySQL, but am having problems appending rows to an existing table. What I *want* to do is to append rows to the table, allowing the database to automatically generate primary key values. I've only managed to add rows by using dbWriteTable( con,

Hi, I have a question reading using RMySQL trying to load one R vector into a table column. To be more specifically, the table is there populated. Now I add a new column and want to populate this. Can some colleagues on this list teach me how to do this? I know how to write one R object/table into MYSQL table using dbWriteTable. But in this situation, I just want to do one column. Thanks

Heya Folks, I've got to process a form that contains variable series of values, which i want to collect into a vectors. Say the first series has ten values, with id's ranging from X1 to X10, currently i process them in the following hardcoded manner: x1 <- c(as.numeric(POST$X1), as.numeric(POST$X2), as.numeric(POST$X3), as.numeric(POST$X4), as.numeric(POST$X5), as.numeric(POST$X6),

Hi I'm new to R and have been resisting posting to the list thus far, but I think I've exhausted my work around options. I'm having a few problems with RMySQL and/or it's underlying packages. I'm doing a very simple vsn transformation on large datasets, using RMySQL to retrieve the data for a DB. My first problem was that I could not get the RMySQL package to write

Dear list, I'm working with a MySQL-Table and would like to extract selected ids that are stored in a vector: Ids <- c(1,2,3) How do I insert this variable in a for loop like this: For (a in values) { Temp <- dbGetQuery(con, "select * from db Where id = <ID>";) } My problem is to split the select-statement and insert the current id. How can I handle this problem?

Hi all, This is a potentially very stupid question about MySQL <-> R interaction, but I have not been able to solve it. I'm just trying to connect R to my MySQL databse, and gets this: > library(RMySQL) Loading required package: methods > m <- dbDriver("MySQL") > con <- dbConnect(m,group="testdb") Process R segmentation fault at Wed Oct 16 07:04:30

I am using R 2.8 and the latest versions of RMySQL on a Windows XP 64 bit machine. I was wondering if someone could help me figure out how to use dbWriteTable without inserting \r into my table. Consider the following code snippet, which is run after I connect to my database. myDFOut = dbReadTable(conn, "myDF") print(myDFOut) myDFIn = data.frame(x=paste("x", 1:5, sep =

Hello everyone, I have a problem when I execute queries using R 2.3.1 and MySql server 5.0. What I do: I load data in different csv files (every file represents a particular temporal step of a simulation) using Mysql query "load data" with RMySQL command DbSendQuery (but the same problem there is also using DbWritetable). Then I use a function where I have a lot of queries that interact

I've been putting together a package that defined generic methods for database access. The packages is called "Rdbi." It borrows as much as possible from existing database packages / proposals. I'd like to start a discussion about the proposed interface. Here's what I've come up with so far: # # Rdbi: connectionMethods.R # dbConnect <- function(dbObj, ...)

R HELP, I am trying to use an R script to connect to a mysql database. I am having a problem using a variable in the where clause that contains a "space" in its value. If I include the variable inside the quotes of the query - i think it is searching for the name of the variable in the database and not the value of the variable. If I put it outside the quotes, then it complains

I have been having trouble getting RMySQL to work on Mac OS 10.4. It was working fine for me about a year ago but I didn't touch it for a while and several upgrades of R, MySQL, and OS X later, it is not working. I first had the problem that others have been having getting the error discussed in https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2005- November/002435.html saying that

Hi, useR- In RMySQL, how do I overwrite records? (equivalent to "replace" query). For example, suppose that dat2 is a newer data.frame than dat1. con <- dbConnect(MySQL()) res <- dbWriteTable(con, "DBname", dat1, row.names=F, append=T, replace=T) res <- dbWriteTable(con, "DBname", dat2, row.names=F, append=T, replace=T) This would not update/replace the

Hello, I have trouble installing and loading the RMySQL package on OS X 2.8. The package seems to install from source fine (using R package manager from within the R environment).

Dear Rusers, I am trying to feed my database with data from a file. But since my file (2010101000.txt) there`s no headers I am facing problem because the result data.frame is not separated my columns.

Hi, I'm using R 1.9.0 with RMySQL 0.5-4 and MySQL 3.23.55 on a suse 8.2 box. I have a simulation study and (as usual for newbies in simulation, I guess) I have a lot of data that I want to store in MySQL. I want to write an R script that reads data from RData files and writes it to a MySQL database. I read some R documents (R Data Import/Export and DSC papers) but I'm finding

I am feeling rather dumb right now. I created what I thought was a data.frame as follows: aaa <- lapply(split(moreinfo,list(moreinfo$m_id),drop = TRUE), fun_m_id) m_id_default_res <- do.call(rbind, aaa) print("==========================================") m_id_default_res print("==========================================") ndf <- m_id_default_res[, c('mid',

I have a table (contact) with several fields and it's PK is an auto increment field. I'm bulk loading data to this table from files which if successful will be about 3.5million rows (approx 16000 rows per file). However, I have a linking table (an_contact) to resolve a m:m relationship between the an and contact tables. How can I retrieve the PK's for the data bulk loaded into

Hello, I am trying to insert data in a data.frame into a database table using the RMySQL package m <- dbDriver("MySQL") con <- dbConnect(m, host = "blah", user = "blah", password = "blah", dbname = "blah") proid <- dbGetQuery(con, "select max(processed_data_id)+1 from processed_data") spot <-
