Hi, I'm trying to establish a connection to a MySQL database, and am using the rodbc package for it. This is in a GNU/Debian Linux box, with the corresponding Debian unstable packages. I can login to my MySQL databases from any shell and directory, so the problem is probably not there. Here's an example of what I'm doing: R> odbcConnect("test",

Hello all! Can someone confirm whether there is a bug or not? I was trying to use sqlUpdate in place of sqlSave as data set I import has duplications. However I get errors while using fast=FALSE argument to safely update/ignore duplicates: Error while executing the query[RODBC] ERROR: Could not SQLExecDirect 'UPDATE "data" SET "logger"=1,

I am using R-2.10.1 binary from CRAN on a WinXP Pro system. I also use SAS v9.2 on the same box. I just started using the SAS ODBC driver that comes with version 9 of SAS. I have been able to set up an ODBC source for SAS datasets using the driver, and then with RODBC I am able to read a sample SAS dataset. > library(RODBC) > ch <- odbcConnect('sasodbc', believeNRows=FALSE)

Hi, I've got a problem with RODBC and saving (sqlSave) of a dataframe in Access. R 2.0.1 is running on windows XP. When executing the examples in R help for the "USArrests" data set "sqlSAve" works fine, but running sqlSave() for a dataframe "Adat" > str(Adat) `data.frame': 1202 obs. of 18 variables: containing 18 columns and ca. 1200 rows fails.

Hello! I have no problem reading Excel files (each worksheet in the file is a "table" which can be read - at least in my case). What I would like to do is to read such a table, change it (just the contents, not the format) and write it back, and this I can not do. I am getting the following error messages (3 slightly different attempts): > sqlSave(con, x, tablename =

I can create a temp table with MySQL and R DBI[1], but I don't see how to do the same with Microsoft SQL 2005 and RODBC. R 2.8.1 creates the table, but then it can never see it. I'm looking to avoid replacing the convenience functions like sqlSave(). [1] https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-March/190033.html > library(RODBC) > channel <-

Hello, I created a table in MySQL with this command CREATE TABLE example (pk INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,PRIMARY KEY(pk), id VARCHAR(30),col1 VARCHAR(30),col2 VARCHAR(30)) ### In R, I can connect to this table: library(DBI) library(RODBC) chan <- odbcConnect("MySQL51", uid="root", pwd="xxx") first <- sqlQuery(chan, "select * from example")

Hi, I am hoping to use the RODBC package to write a dataframe to an Excel .xlsx file. The dataframe contains at least one field with character elements that exceed 255 bytes, which appears to be the cell width limit in Excel. Below is example code and the warning message received: library(RODBC) d <-

Dear list, Being new to both the postgres database, ODBC and the RODBC interface, I am somewhat confused by some of the problems I am experiencing trying to connect R to the database. Whai I am trying is basically the example part of the help file for the sqlSave function: > library(RODBC) > odbcConnect("theodor") -> channel > data(USArrests) > sqlSave(channel,

Dear R users, I've learned today about RODBC package in order to import xls file to dataframes and export the dataframes to xls files. However I have some problems. Please excuse me if these are basic but as I said, I've just begun with this package. Also this email is quite long, but everything is related, so I don't think it would be better to split it. Moreover, there's a

I am using sqlSave to save my data into an existing table at MS SQL Server database. Previously my code ran smoothly but all of a sudden it stopped working. Here is my code: sqlSave(con, highVol, "dbo.futuresHighVol", append=TRUE, rownames=FALSE) Error: sqlSave(con, highVol, "jrgchis.dbo.futuresHighVol", append = TRUE, : 42S01 2714 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL

Hi, I am having trouble to write/create a table, which has a date field. I want to create a stock price table, which has fields of ticker, date, price. First, I created such a table in Microsoft Access with a few rows inputs. Using sqlQuery, I found that the date field was retrieved as POSIXct value. Then I made a data.frame with POSIXct as the data type for dates. However, I received the

Hi, I've written some code that fetches data from an Access Database (2003), processes the data, then saves the modified data back into a table in the Access database. It works if I only pass through the code once, but if I put a loop around the code so that I fetch data from a different source table, and then save it again to a different destination table, the code crashes. It is

Hello, I use a RODBC connection to a MySQL server on a Debian machine. The call to odbcConnect() seems to be ok, but the result of the first sqlFetch(channel,"t_studie") retrieves this data frame: [1] "[RODBC] ERROR: Could not SQLExecDirect" [2] "42000 1064 [MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver][mysqld-5.0.22-Debian_1bpo1-log]You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual

Dear Prof. Ripley et al., I have a data frame with some variable names that contain the underscore character ('_'). It seems that RODBC is not converting them to a suitable variable name for MySQL. > sqlSave(channel, zz, addPK = TRUE, verbose = TRUE) Query: CREATE TABLE zz (rownames varchar(255) PRIMARY KEY, NAME varchar(255), ID varchar(255), GROUP varchar(255), OAC_RT double,

Dear R users, I've already asked this question yesterday, but, though I had answer for the other ones (and they helped a lot, thanks), for some reason didn't get an answer for this one (I would also appreciate to know why, so that I can improve the quality and clarity of my future questions). Here it is again: I'm trying to use RODBC to export dataframes to xls files. When I run

Hi, I'm able to establish a successful odbc connection using RODBC 1.3-2 on Win 7 and R 2.12.0. But I'm getting the following error message when I try to save a data frame into the debase as shown below. library(RODBC) bbdb <- odbcConnect("bbdb") odbcGetInfo(bbdb) # returns ok sqlSave(bbdb, USArrests, rownames = "state", addPK=TRUE) # example from the RODBC manual
