Thanks for bringing the question over from StackOverflow [1]. I am not very impressed that you STILL hide behind a pseudonym and I am starting to question my sanity as to why I take time out to help someone like that. Anyway, read on ...

We have seen problems with a number of packages which use R/Rscript to run R code in configure or makefiles. (a) You must give a full path: there need be no version of R in the path, and if there is it might not be the version/build of R under which package installation is being done. So the general form is to use ${R_HOME}/bin/R to select the right version. And since ${R_HOME} might

Dear R-devel members, recently, I ran into the following error message (R-devel 2018-01-31): 'Rscript' should not be used without a path -- see par. 1.6 of the manual I would like to know more about it, why is it required to run Rscript with a path, and where is that par. 1.6 of the manual. I get this error message during Travis r-devel build of my package for generating makefiles. I

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

L.S. In this bug report https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14493#c1 it is mentioned that after moving an R installation one should regenerate the Rscript executable. Is there an easy way to do so (after an R installation has been moved)? I have not found any information in the R installation and administration manual. Many thanks in advance for any pointer. Best wishes,

Good Morning, I have recently built R version 2.7.0 on a CentOS release 4.6, 64-bit system using the following command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/r-2.7.0 Everything built fine and works properly except for Rscript which is looking for files in the original build directory instead of the specified install directory. Did I forget to add a flag or is this a bug? TIA, Gregg.

Hello, I have found what I believe to be a bug in the Linux version of the Rscript binary. Under Windows (official 64-bit 3.5.1 R distribution running on an up-to-date Win10), I can do the following (e.g. under powershell): PS H:\Users\Cesko> Rscript -e 'ls() >> ls()' character(0) character(0) which works as I expect: I am running Rscript with two arguments, namely (1)

Hi, Recently, I made an R package that used the C++ library Boost.Thread (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/doc/html/thread.html) for multithreading. Previously, I have posted a question at stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19651954/is-it-possible-to-build-an-r-package-which-use-rcpp-and-boost-thread-on-http), and I also asked at rcpp-devel

Hi, A user of my `optparse` package discovered a bug in Rscript's parsing of [args]. (https://github.com/trevorld/optparse/issues/24) I've reproduced the bug on my machine including compiling and checking the development version of R. I couldn't find a mention of it in the Bug Tracker or New Features. Can be minimally reproduced on the UNIX command line with following commands:

Greetings, I am creating a standalone executable script using Rscript and have run into problems when I define a new S4 class. Here is a small script that demonstrates my problem: #!/usr/bin/env Rscript # # toy.Rscript -- testing S4 class creation in an Rscript setClass("toy", representation(name = "character", price = "numeric"),

Good morning R-help, I have an idiot question: I would like to use getSrcDirectory() and friends to allow me to identify where an R file has been called from when invoked using Rscript. If I understand the documentation correctly, the following example should work: In file test.R: options(keep.source=T) fn<-function(x){x<-x+1} srcDir<-getSrcDirectory(fn) print(srcDir) I

Dear all, finally decided to do an Ubuntu upgrade and a new clean R install from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/. However, while trying to install a package from R-forge I encountered problems, involving error messages saying "Rscript execution error: No such file or directory" (see below). The same procedure works on Ubuntu 11.04 running R 2.12.1-1 from the Ubuntu

One of the examples in Rscript.Rd seems mis-formatted, in that the format statement is incomplete: ## Not run: Rscript -e 'date()' -e 'format(Sys.time(), " Both Rscript.Rd in R 2.5.0 and the version at: https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/utils/man/Rscript.Rd have Rscript -e 'date()' -e 'format(Sys.time(), "%a %b %d %X %Y")' Do

Hi all, this is probably some tricky configuration file problem, but I figure someone here might have come across this in the past: In short, I've been using Rscript to run my scripts, usually successfully. But recently I've run into a strange problem, and the only function that causes an error is "print". I can create a file that contains only a print command, and it causes

See the example below (under Ubuntu): $ Rscript -e '1' -e '2' [1] 1 [1] 2 $ Rscript -e '1' -e '' -e '2' ERROR: option '-e' requires an argument $ uname -a Linux xie 3.5.0-25-generic #39-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 25 18:26:58 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Similar problem under Windows: Rscript -e "1" -e "" -e "2" [1]

Thanks Tomas. I confirm the quick workaround works for me in the DOS prompt, and when having a shortcut to RScript in SendTo, and when used in the Task Scheduler. I have not tested the R-devel version, due to my unfamiliarity with installing from source code. -----Original Message----- From: Tomas Kalibera [mailto:tomas.kalibera at gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2018 6:34 AM To: Kerry

Hi, I seem to have a problem when passing named parameters to R via Rscript (R2.5.1, bash shell). As soon as I name elements of a list Rscript generates an error. I will appreciate if someone could point to me a correct way of doing this. Thanks, Vadim ## This works bash-3.2$ Rscript.exe -e 'list(1)' [[1]] [1] 1 # and these do not work bash-3.2$ Rscript.exe -e

I figured out how to use quotes and parentheses when using Rscript -e (on a bash shell): Rscript -e write\(1,\"a.txt\"\) --> Question 1: why do the parentheses need to be escaped in the shell? (More a shell than an R question) Then I figured out how to use quotes and parentheses when calling Rscript through system: system('Rscript -e write\\(1,\\\'a.txt\\\'\\)')

Rscript eats up the last argument when reporting the command it runs: $ Rscript --verbose "/tmp/test.R" one two three running '/usr/local/lib/R-devel/lib/R/bin/R --slave --no-restore --file=/tmp/test.R --args one two' With the patch below, I get the following: $ Rscript --verbose "/tmp/test.R" one two three running '/usr/local/lib/R-devel/lib/R/bin/R --slave
