similar to: Rtools - "The setup files are corrupted" message when trying to install

Hello: 1. How can I tell when the development version of Rtools has changed? For the past few years, I've installed the development version of R tools with each new release of R. I encountered problems with this a few days ago, so I rolled back to Rtools212.exe. Unfortunately, I seem to have more problems with that version. My latest install was under Windows 7 Home Edition.

Hi, I'm getting some strange behaviour when trying to use the power operator (a^b) when a is large and b is less than one: big <- .Machine$double.xmax big big^0.5 sqrt(big) > big <- 1.797693134862315708384e+308 > big^0.5 [1] Inf > sqrt(big) [1] 1.340781e+154 I'm guessing that this behaviour is not expected, or am I missing something about ^?

Hi, I am trying to package some code to use with R and wanted to call Rscript from within the Makevars file (I am trying to automate the setting of the location of a third party library depending on what is available / the system the package is being installed on). If I just have a simple Makevars containing PKG_LIBS= -lnag_nag -L/fserver/nagprod/FL22/fll6a22df/lib the package is built

Hi, I've just downloaded and installed R 2.14.0 using the windows binary on a 64bit windows machine running windows 7. Rterm / RGui work as expected, as does R CMD --help and R CMD BATCH --help however R CMD check --help returns no information and I seem to be unable to check a package. Various other options also seem to not be working as expected, i.e. R CMD REMOVE aa (where aa is

Hello, I installed R 2.13.0 on a Windows 2003 server.? I downloaded the Rtools213.exe from http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/ and placed it in the path (C:\Program Files\R\R-2.13.0\bin).

Hi, I am trying to install the latest version of the BRugs package on a 32 bit windows machine which, due to the set up, won't allow me to install it via the usual R GUI. Can anyone point me to a link from which I can download the relevant files that allow me to install it manually (most pages flagged by Google point back to a message saying it was removed from CRAN and to look in the

Dear developers, I am a maintainer of the CORElearn package which uses OpenMP multithreading to speed up some computations. When producing a new release we tested the package with the latest R 2.12.0. On Linux the package works normally. On Windows we installed a recommended version of Rtools (Rtools212) but the linker fails with the messages below. ... g++

Hi all, I am trying to compile Rgraphiz on Windows 7 64bit with R-2.13.0. I have installed Rtools213.exe from [1]. The 64bit packages in [2] provided me with the 64 bit version of graphviz. After intalling the binary version Rgraphviz 1.30 (in 32bit) it complains (as expected) that: > library(Rgraphviz) Error: package 'Rgraphviz' is not installed for 'arch=x64' I

Hi, I replaced my Rtools today as posted at http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/Rtools.exe Trying to build R-devel_2007-12-13.tar.gz without modifying MkRules gives the gfortran command not found error below. I am wondering if gfortran.exe is missing from (recent?) Rtools.exe or I am doing something wrong. Thanks to hints at Duncan's site, I worked around the error by adding

Hi All, I am trying to compile R 2.13.0 r53834 on 64-bit Windows 7 (home premium) using Rtools212.exe from Duncan Murdoch's site. I (think) I followed the installation guide for Windows. When installing Rtools, made sure I was installing 64-bit tools (including tcltk), etc. I created a copy of MkRules.local where I selected 64 bit instead of 32 architecture. When I run:

Dear all, Since version R-2.12.0, I've got problems building an add-on package for R ("imglib" here) for 32-bit Windows. The following command is called: C:\Program Files\R\R-2.12.0\bin\i386\Rcmd build --binary imglib And here is an error I am getting in the end of processing: ** testing if installed package can be loaded Error : package 'imglib' is not installed for

I have just got a new machine and had a basic cygwin installed before it was given to me. It didn't include make. Previously I have installed Rtools to build packages and now I have got myself a bit confused as to whether to just install make from the cygwin packages or to install rtools. I would welcome any advice. I had a look at the rtools section in the Administration Manual and the

I recently got a RFC on Eclipse and StatET setup from a R-help user, so here it is. Note: there may be slight errors of omission in my directions as I am making these notes after I had a successful install. If you have questions post here.

Hello, I am stuck trying to build 64-bit R 2.12.1 on Windows 7, hopefully the problem is obvious and someone can point out what I'm missing.

Dear R People: I'm trying to experiment with the "make distribution" with R-2.12.0 when compiling from source on Windows. It works fine on Windows XP, but I'm having a snag with Windows 7.

Dear all, I'm trying to create my own package by following for instance http://epub.ub.uni-muenchen.de/6175/2/tr036.pdf In step 6 (page 19) it says that the command 'R CMD build <mypackage>' should result in a tar.gz file.

Hello: What do I need to do to compile R packages (especially RMySQL) for the 64-bit version of R 2.12.0 under Vista_x64?

After the first error, I installed it a second time, then got "undefined reference to" roughly 50 different names beginning

Dear R helpers, I wish to use the "sum" operator for each row of a data frame. However, it appears that the operator acts on the entire data frame, over all columns. What is the best way to obtain row- wise operation? The following code shows my attempts so far, and their problems:- test1=array(rbinom(120,1,0.5),c(20,3)) test1[,3]=NA sum(test1[,1:2]) test1[,3][sum(test1[,1:2])>=2]=1
