Dear all, I'm not sure whether this is intended behaviour or a bug. The path returns from normalizePath is different when the directory doesn't exist. I have included a reproducible example. path <- tempfile() missing.dir <- normalizePath(path, winslash = "/", mustWork = FALSE) dir.create(path) existing.dir <- normalizePath(path, winslash = "/", mustWork =

Dear all, Sweave chokes when using "\\" in the path to the Rnw file. Using "/" works fine. The problem is that Eclipse+StatET uses "\\" in the filename. And example of the error, traceback and sessionInfo are given below. Best regards, Thierry > Sweave("Q:\\BMK\\cursussen\\interne_opleiding\\deelnemerslijst.Rnw", syntax="SweaveSyntaxNoweb")

Dear all, I'm trying to connect to an MSAccess database (ArcGIS personal geodatabase). I keep getting an error about the channel when using sqlQuery(). However, sqlTables() does not complain about the channel and lists all tables in the database. If I try sqlFetch(), then R crashes. I'm happy to hear suggestions on how to solve this. Best regards, Thierry > MDB <-

Hello, We use drc to fit dose-response curves, recently we discovered that there are quite different standard error values returned for the same dataset depending on the drc-version / R-version that was used (not clear which factor is important) On R 2.9.0 using drc_1.6-3 we get an IC50 of 1.27447 and a standard error on the IC50 of 0.43540 Whereas on R 2.7.0 using drc_1.4-2 the IC50 is

Dear all, We have a problem with reading some characters correctly from an UTF-16 encoded database. The code below givens the correct characters on Ubuntu with the_driver = {ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server}. On Windows (with the_driver = {SQL Server}), special characters like '?' and '?' are returned as '?'. I've added the sessionInfo() output from both machines. Any

Dear all, A colleague of mine reported a problem that I fail to understand completely. He has a number of .csv files that look all very straightforward, and they all read in perfectly well using read.csv() on both his and my computer. When we try the exact same R version on the university server however, suddenly all numeric variables turn into factors. The problem is resolved by deleting the

Dear all, My package has Depends: lme4.0 in the DESCRIPTION. I need to extract the fixed effect of a model and their standard errors. I use coef(summary(model)) inside a function to do that. Model is the output of a call to glmer() from the lme4.0 package. coef(summary(model)) throws an error: $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors I have tracked it down to a problem with summary(model)

Dear all, predict.lme() throws an error when the fixed part consists of only an intercept and using newdata. See the reproducible example below. I've tracked the error down to asOneFormula() which returns in this case NULL instead of a formula. Changing NULL instead of ~1 in that function (see below) solves the problem in the case of an intercept only model (m1). It does not solve the problem

HYe i run a samba 2.2.1a on RedHAt 7.2 Kernel 2.4.18 All works fine but if a user tries to open/save a file from MS-Office application he receives a error when accessing a mapped network-drive: "You do not have the permission, please contact your Administrator" Accessing this share via WindowsExplorer works fine., also all other applications can access this share via file open/save

Dear list (re-posting from r-help as r-devel is probably more appropriate), I was able to successfully compile R on our AIX box at work using the GNU compilers following the instructions on the R Administration guide. The output can be seen at here (https://gist.github.com/nguyenvinh/504321ea9c89d8919bef) and yields no errors . However, I get a segfault whenever I try to use the

Dear R-Users, I think I have encountered a potential bug (or at least unwanted behavior), but I'm not sure so I wanted to post here first. Lately I've been encountering an error when running a package I put together. I have my package set up to check for updates when it loads but this error occurs and stops the package from loading: Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for

Hi, I'm currently taking a look at possibilities to report my results, produced by R. After looking at LaTex, I'm now considering the odf format, as most people at my company work with MS Word. So using odfWeave would be my best bet probably. But if I run some examples from the odfWeave package, I cant open the output in Open Office: demoFile <- system.file("examples",

Dear all, I was playing around with factor contrasts, and found the argument nmax on function factor. When using nmax=1, R froze completely, and I had to close it from task manager. After some debugging, I found that the problem is actually in unique-function, where the internal unique function is called: .Internal(unique(x, incomparables, fromLast, nmax)) More generally, it looks like

Here's an update: I checked the ChangeLog for R, and it seems like readDCF was changed in 3.0.2. I went on a whim and copied src/main/dcf.c from R 2.15.3 over to 3.2.2, and R compiled fine and install.packages now work for me. This is probably not ideal, but it at least makes R usable on AIX for me. Would definitely like to help figure out what's wrong with the new dcf.c on AIX.

Has anyone had success with producing legends to a qplot graph such that the legend is placed on the bottom, under the abcissa rather than to the right hand side ? The following doesn't move the legend: library(ggplot2) qplot(mpg, wt, data=mtcars, colour=cyl, gpar(legend.position="bottom") ) I am using ggplot2_0.8.2. Thanks in advance, Avram

Hi all, The write_PACKAGES function has a 'fields' argument that allows a user generating a PACKAGES file to specify additional fields to include. For symmetry, it would be nice for the available.packages function to be able to read those extra fields when specified. Similarly, it would be useful for installed.packages to have a 'fields' argument. This would allow a user to

I am using R 1.1 with Redhat 6.2 and RW 1.001 with Win98 (the upkey doesn't work on my IBM either as has been previously reported by others). The function aov doesn't return either the residuals or the residual degrees of freedom for split-plot designs. If you use the following code from Baron and Li's "Notes on the use of R for psycology experiments and questionnaires"

I've just upgraded my rsync server to 2.5.1 (before, I was using 2.4.6), without changing anything in /etc/rsyncd.conf, and now, I have this logs each time a client connect to server: 2002/01/07 18:33:03 [10432] rsync: reverse name lookup mismatch on fd3 - spoofed address? 2002/01/07 18:33:03 [10432] rsync on admin/sbin/padmin_update.sh from UNKNOWN (172.16.65.14) 2002/01/07 18:33:03 [10432]
