similar to: unable to load shared library (Symbol not found: _PQbackendPID)

I'm starting to seriously use R and have tried to solve this issue using my reference books but I'm missing something simple. Running R-2.13.1 on Slackware-13.1. Trying to invoke RPostgreSQL so I can copy data from a postgres table to an R data-frame. I installed RPostgreSQL and the library() command shows it's present: Packages in library

R gurus: I'm thinking about using R for website traffic analysis but didn't find anything in my web searches specific to R. If I have the webpages (simple example would contain something like three (3) static pages with a couple of links each) and parse the apache access log file (httpd-access.log), then I can populate the graph representing the website and perform whatever analysis I

I've been trying to figure out why the following is happening.... I've got some data I'll load in from a file... rm(list=ls(all=TRUE)) trees <- read.table( "c:/cruisepak/data.txt", header=T) trees$ct <- 1 And when I create some temp variable, then split the data to perform further processing, the additional column doesn't maintain the data correctly.... mtrees

I've been developing a package and have been getting the following warning when running the check command: * checking S3 generic/method consistency ... WARNING plot: function(x, ...) plot.summaries: function(trees, sp) * checking for replacement functions with final arg not named 'value' ... OK * checking Rd files ...

I'm adding a couple of vignettes to an existing package. When I make a change to the sweave file, and run the check command, c:\conifers\trunk>R CMD check rconifers I get the following message(s) in the 00check.log file: * checking for unstated dependencies in vignettes ... OK * checking package vignettes in 'inst/doc' ... WARNING Package vignette(s) without corresponding PDF:

I'm in the middle of a long overdue package update, and after seeing the CRAN Task Views I thought there would be an entry, in the DESCRIPTIONS file, for that entry that appears on the package webpage. For example, http://cran.case.edu/web/packages/vegan/index.html Since it's been some time since I've updated the package, I did a little reading (R-exts.pdf) and web searching and

I hope this is the place for this... I have to rebuild from scratch under Snow Leopard, and when I attempted to build R-2.9.1, I get the following results from ./ configure: checking how to get verbose linking output from fc... configure: WARNING: compilation failed checking for Fortran 77 libraries of fc... checking how to get verbose linking output from gcc -std=gnu99... -v checking for

I've been working on a LaTeX document that contains Sweave code and cannot get MikTeX to find the Sweave.sty file. I've added the c:\rw1081\share\texmf path in the MikTeX roots (I've ven added the path in the environment variables ) but to no avail. Is there a trick to getting Sweave installed correctly when using MikTeX on Windows XP? Do I need to move/copy the Sweave.sty file to the

I've got a newbie question and I got a little lost in the "table helps". I've got a data.frame I would like to summarize as a (and pardon for the lack of correct vernacular) data collection matrix. My data looks like, stand siteindex age acres pct.acres 1 232 116 45 8477.3105 0.56159458 2 234 121 25 11120.1530 0.73667441 3 235 132 25

I've been trying to plot the predicted values, as a line, over the data for a simple nonlinear fit with the following commands: plot( hg ~ ht ) ... define some function hg ~ ht + junk ... ... blah, blah, obtain parameter estimates and predicted values, blah... ... then... lines( sort( $predicted ) ~ sort( ht ) ) which results in a line that isn't smooth (which I knew would happen).

I'm trying to update a package and would like to crush a WARNING message for a clean build. I've been struggling with this question and haven't gotten any traction on the web either. I've got a document file (Rd) that contains the following \usage statement: \name{sample.data} \alias{sample.data} \title{CONIFERS forest growth model sample data} \description{ A list object of

I've wondered why the digest version of the r-devel emails have the messages as attachments and the r-help-request have all the messages in one email (which I like MUCH better). Is it possible to send out the r-devel digest emails in the same format as the r-help-request digest emails? please, pretty please? --- Jeff D. Hamann Forest Informatics, Inc.

I couldn't find this is in the FAQs or in the R archives and I've poked around the lattice package manual, but... I've been trying to figure out how to generate graphics files with a transparent background with the lattice package. The code to generate the levelplot is fine and I can produce a simple png file with a transparent background just fine, but I'm not sure how to

The R statistical system ... ... xtable* Export data to LaTeX and HTML tables. ... For dropping the row names of a matrix `x', it may be easier to use `rownames(x) <- NULL', similarly for column ...

I've been trying to figure out how to prevent a column that is the result of an aggregate function call so that I can use it in further calculations. For example, I would like to aggregate the expf for the data.frame by sp (character) and dbh (double d=rounded to integer) using the command: > st2 <- aggregate( ntrs$expf, by=list(sp=ntrs$sp,dbh=ntrs$dbh), sum ) > st2$expf <- st2$x

I've been trying to figure out how to accomplish the following... I've got a list (returned from a function) and I would like to "cbind()" the lists together to create a "cross tab" report or simply bind them together somehow the function returns a list that looks like the following: > all$BM $species [1] "BM" $vbar.nobs [1] 3 $vbar.sum [1] 54.05435

Dear R users, The authors of the systemfit package have released a new version of this package with substantial enhancements.

I'm looking for an example of a simple R script that impliments a contrained nonlinear function using nlm or optim. I'm not exactly sure how to impliment the constraints within the objective function that is passed to nlm/optim. obj.func <- function( p ) { x(p) <- unconstrained obj function value if( constraint1 > something ) { obj.func <- x(p) } else {

I've been trying to create a shlib file (using mingw instead of the cygwin -- after reconfiguring my machine, yet again) and I'm getting the following behaviour that I think is incorrect: When using rcmd shlib and explicitly listing the files to include in the build such as: C:\Sequential\Code>rcmd shlib --output=optflikam flikam.c as47.f as154.f as197.f making corrAdaptiveSim.d from
