I am building R packages using R 1.7.0pat under Windows 2000 Professional. All works fine except that I haven't been able to figure out how to use the --docs=TYPE option.

Hi, I am trying to run the command: R CMD INSTALL -l mypath mypackagename from within R (Windows XP) using system() and get the following error: ARGUMENT 'CMD INSTALL -l D:/R/JMB.LIBS jmb.test' __ignored__ Fatal error: you must specify '--save', '--no-save' or '--vanilla' My function contains these 3 lines: setwd("D:/R/R.pkgs") # path to files set

Hello, I recently updated to R version 2.13.2. With R version 2.10.0, I often created and installed R packages, however, I cannot do this since updating. In other words, when I type in Rcmd build -binary PACKAGENAME I receive an error message: "Rcmd is not recognized as an internal...". I suspect that this is because Rcmd.exe is no longer installed in the bin folder, but rather, in

Hello, I got R 1.6.0 for windows and I need Rcmd, which was not included. Where can I get it? (I have to start R and give the name of the file with the R-commands on the command line, so that R is invoked together with its command-file "todo.R". Do I really need Rcmd for that? To write "Rterm todo.R" did not work.) Richard -- Richard M?ller - Am Spring 9 - D-58802

Has anyone successfully used Rcmd install or Rcmd check on Windows Vista? I have been successfully been running R itself, just not Rcmd install and Rcmd check. Rcmd check fails, the Ryacas.Rcheck it creates is read-only, I don't have permission to delete it and I have to reset the permissions on it just to delete it. With Rcmd install I am getting the following which looks like I am running

Hola! I am using Rcmd build --binary ... on a windows XP system, and am encountering a strange problem. Rcmd claims there are syntax errors in one of mine .Rd files ******* Syntax error: mismatched or missing brackets in I take "brackets" to mean [], and I have none of them in the file, and don't think they are needed. Rcmd prints out the offending file, and in the printout I

I changed the path to include C:\Program Files\R\R-2.3.1\bin, but Rcmd check [package] just returns an error: 'Rcmd' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Any ideas? I want to be able to compile this package on Windows. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I want to run Rcmd BATCH with R_DEFAULT_PACKAGE=base so it doesn't load any packages, but it seems to reject this argument because it does not start with a '-' or '--'. Is there a different argument that will work? Thanks.

Dear R users, With package.skeleton() i have produced successfully my .Rd??s, ... Now i will run Rcmd check on ..\R\bin\ But Rcmd check (and build) on my Windows XP does not work.

Trying to use rcmd in our Windows environment to launch tasks on remote servers. We are using the job scheduler from Tidal corporation. The problem is the return code that's coming back to the job scheduler,Tidal, is from the RCMD NOT from the tasks that it launched.

When I run Rcmd check on a package on my Windows 2000 machine, I get a series of error messages like the following: * checking generic/method consistency ...c:\DOCUME~1\R5018~1.WOO\LOCALS~1\Temp/R utils138414013: cannot open c:DOCUME~1R5018~1.WOOLOCALS~1Temp/Rin138408157: no s uch file It looks as if a Windows style path to the temp directory is not being interpreted correctly, with backslashes

Hi, I have just updated R from version 2.8.1 to version 2.9.1. I am running Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3. With the update, I decided to update a set of packages that I maintain by compiling them for the new version. Everything worked fine except for one package. This package is unique (among the six I was working on) in that is stored on a UNIX-based file server that is

Hello. When I try to use Rcmd INSTALL to install a package (whether my own or someone else's) for the Windows version of R, I get the following error: C:\>Rcmd INSTALL cluster_1.8.1.tar.gz ---------- Making package cluster ------------ adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION Fatal error: you must specify `--save', `--no-save' or `--vanilla' make[1]: *** [frontmatter] Error 2

The manual page says, that rcmd() is only to be used by root's processes. On other OSes (Solaris, AIX), trying to call rcmd() without being root simply fails. FreeBSD, however, tries to be helpful and invokes rcmdsh in this case, which is inefficient and leaves the stderr's filedescriptor (fd2p) unfilled. Why? My understanding is, this is to make it harder for would-be attackers to

Hi, I'm trying to run an R script using Rcmd Batch from the command line on a Windows Vista machine. I am using R version 2.8.1. I installed the batch files 4-3 found at http://cran.r-project.org/contrib/extra/batchfiles/ and added them to my path. I also had to install the latest version of perl (it's Strawberry perl if that makes a difference) and have added this to my path. Now when

Hello, a short question: I cannot find the Rcmd file in the my installed Windows R Program.

I noticed that in "R version 2.4.0 alpha (2006-09-16 r39365)" on Windows XP that I get this error: C:\Rpkgs>Rcmd install mypkg no Perl script 'install' The same command worked with no error in 2.3.1pat. If I capitalize INSTALL it does work; however, this was not necessary previously. Note that C:\Rpkgs>Rcmd check mypkg unlike install, still works in either lower or

Dear R People: I'm trying to use the Rcmd SHLIB to produce a dll. Rcmd SHLIB -o test2.dll test2.f make[1]: *** [libR.a] Error 255 make: *** [libR] Error 2 Where do I go to find out about the "make" errors, please? I suspect that I might be missing something.
