We are several seeing this one.

It works again using: % R --version R Under development (unstable) (2015-01-26 r67627) -- "Unsuffered Consequences" Copyright (C) 2015 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) /Henrik On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 9:54 AM, John Fox <jfox at mcmaster.ca> wrote: > Dear all, > > I've noticed the following problem for the past

Hi I'm getting an error message with the roots() function in the vars package. Even the example in the help file comes up with an error: > data(Canada) > var.2c <- VAR(Canada, p = 2, type = "const") > roots(var.2c) Error in UseMethod("roots") : no applicable method for 'roots' applied to an object of class "varest" The error is odd, for

Hi all, I am noticing some strange behaviour so I am bringing to this list. In the past when I have submitted bugs to bugzilla, I have come here first for confirmation/advice. Hopefully this is appropriate. Upgrading from R 3.5.2 to R 3.5.3 seems to have elicited some strange behaviour on my Windows machine. R seems to have trouble spawning a new process on my machine. You can noticing with all

R-helpers: I just updated from R 7.0 to R 7.2.2 today.

My day for dumb questions. How do I increase the type size in the Rgui console in Windows? (R-2.13.0, Windows 7) It looked to me that I just needed to change the font spec in Rconsole but that does not seem to be working. The R FAQ for Windows has a reference in Q3.4 to changing fonts, (Q5.2), but I don't see anything relevant there. Rconsole originally was: font = TT Courier New points =

I am trying to clean up some dates and I am clearly doing something wrong. I have laid out an example that seems to show what is happening with the "real" data. The coding is lousy but it looks like it should have worked. Can anyone suggest a) why I am getting that NA appearing after the strptime() command and b) why the NA is disappearing in the sort()? It happens with na.rm=TRUE

Hello, I am unable to start an R session by double-clicking on an existing .RData file from the Windoze file explorer. A dialogue appears with the message "Fatal error: unable to restore saved data in .RData", and I notice in the R Console the last few lines are: "Loading required package: R2HTML NULL error in function () : unused argument(s) (1:43)" I tried starting

Hello, I see the following issue in R-devel since 'both' has become the default pkgType for binary platforms. update.packages() fails when you set options(repos). Looks like it is trying to download a tgz file from the src/contrib section of a repository (on a mac). To reproduce this you need to have an older version of AnnotationDbi installed, which I accomplished by faking it,

Dear all, I am working on an R package intended for CRAN that requires Tcl version 8.6 because of the TclOO tcl extension and the -angle option for canvas text items. R for Windows currently still ships with Tcl 8.5. Does anyone have experience with linking R under Windows to a Tcl interpreter of version 8.6? When I link R 3.2.2 (installed from the binary on Windows 8) to a custom Tcl

R Gurus: This sounds not a FAQ. I upgraded WinEdt from 5.4 to 5.5 , following load RWinEdt, R-WinEdt editor appears. There are more menu items and task icons in this version, but I failed to find a pull down menu or task icon to send code to R.

Hello, I have just installed R 2.7.0 and re-installed SciViews 0.8-9 and Tinn-R 1.19.4.7 and seem to have broken something along the way as follows. I double-click on my current .RData file in the Windoze explorer, R Console and Tinn-R load successfully (?). I can list objects in my working directory with ls() but, when I attempt to refresh any list in the R explorer tab of the Tools child

Dear R users, Since a long time now, I have the following error when I want to load the tcltk library in R 64 bit.

I realize that R-core must be busy with the imminent release of 2.11.0, so please consider this not urgent. The NEWS file for 2.12.0 (Windows-specific) says, in part: For now, 32-bit packages with compiled code built under 2.{10,11}.x can be used, but this will be disabled before release. For me, this doesn't work without a tweak. For example, > library(mvtnorm) #Error:

This ancient bug was tracked to the acepack library, line 556 in line src/avas.f The troublesome line is: if (x(n).gt.x(1)) go to 30 Since the input arguments are empty, referencing x(1) and x(n) cause a Segmentation fault, and cause R to crash.
