similar to: getting R 1.8 or 1.9 to work!?

All, I've encountered the same problem as others who have posted under the same subject. I've had R-1.8.1 installed and running since it was released. Yesterday morning when I tried to start Rgui.exe I got the subject error message. Since I live at the whim of the network administrators I can only assume it was a recent MS critical update. I tried installing R-1.9.0 but no joy. I

R never gave me any serious problems until I tried to use it on Windows XP. I had 1.8.1 installed and working successfully for a few weeks. This morning when I launched it, I received this error message: "R for Windows GUI front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." I downloaded 1.9.0 and installed it, but when I launch it, I get this

Hello list, I sent this about two weeks ago, but I didn't get an answer... so I'm pushing my luck. :-) QUESTION#1: What EXACLTLY causes the HOMEDRIVE, HOMEPATH, and HOMESHARE variables? Something passed from Samab to the client, or some thing the client does? QUESTION#2: How/what/where/why is there a difference in the results of click on "Command Prompt"? My Setup... I'm

I installed R project 1.9.0 on Windows XP. The installation went well. Then, I rebooted. Next, I clicked the icon under Programs in the Start menu and received this error, "Fatal Error: Invalid HOMEDRIVE". I clicked OK to the error message. The program does not start. I went to a DOS prompt and did "echo %HOMEDRIVE%" and it returned "C:". This letter is a valid

Hi, Main objective: Let Rgui find my ~/.Rprofile and ~/.Renviron files, where ~ is equal to getwd("~"). I have few comments/questions: (A) On my WinXP Pro installation, the system environment variable 'HOME' is not availble to R, e.g. Sys.getenv("HOME") is empty. I believe this is default case (correct me if I'm wrong). However, if I set the "Start

Dear colleagues, I am a beginner of using R. I am involved in some microarray data analyses and found that R is the most common software in this area. I tried to install the free software today. It seemed to be successful in installing, but when I trigger the short-cut, I got a error massage saying 'Fetal error: invalid HOMEDRIVE'. I have no idea where the homedrive was defined (or

Hi all- Some recent change...perhaps a windows update, or perhaps a change in the network on which I use my computer....has made it impossible for me to start R. When I try to start the program, I get a message that says "Fatal error: invalid HOMEDRIVE". Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi to all We have moved our users from an NT domain to a samba domain We have changed our terminal server from the NT domain to the samba domain All seems to work fine, but we have found a problem we don't have if we login in the terminal server but in the NT domain.

I'm the faculty member in my department who advises our IT staff on the details of installing R for students and faculty on our Windows 7 lab network. We are about to upgrade from R 3.1.1 to R 3.2.1, and once that is done, this version of R and all installed packages will be frozen in the image that appears in C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.1/ on every lab computer, and this image is refreshed

I had this problem too. The documentation for the winMenus says that these functions are part of the utils package. R must be loading this library after it sources in Rprofile. If you add library(utils) to the beginning of your .First function, it should take care of the problem. Brian Gregor, P.E.
