R HELP, I am trying to use an R script to connect to a mysql database. I am having a problem using a variable in the where clause that contains a "space" in its value. If I include the variable inside the quotes of the query - i think it is searching for the name of the variable in the database and not the value of the variable. If I put it outside the quotes, then it complains

Hello, This forum has been very helpful to me in the past, and I've run out of ideas on how to solve my problem. I had been using R and MySQL (and Perl) together for quite some time successfully on my Windows XP machine. However, I recently had some problems with MySQL (the ibdata file had become 35GB on my hard drive, turns out it's a known bug with InnoDB), and ultimately the way I

Hello everyone, I have a problem when I execute queries using R 2.3.1 and MySql server 5.0. What I do: I load data in different csv files (every file represents a particular temporal step of a simulation) using Mysql query "load data" with RMySQL command DbSendQuery (but the same problem there is also using DbWritetable).

Hi, I've run into a bit of a problem with using the RMySQL library. I've been attempting to create a temporary table in a MySQL database and then perform a SELECT with a WHEREs clause on the table. In effect perform a SELECT with a subSELECT. The problem is that it never seems to be able to find the table after I create it. I've been using the dbSendQuery method to create the table

Hi! I retrieve data from a MySQL Database, containing special characters (german umlaute - ???). rs<-dbSendQuery(con,statement=paste("SELECT ...")

I'm having trouble getting RMySQL to load. I was able to build it and install it (RMySQL_0.5-11.tar.gz). I was also able to build and install mysql-5.0.37.

R and RMySQL are resident on the same host

Heya Folks, I can not find anything on executing insert statement through RMySQL, can someone please enlighten me?

Hola a todos Estoy aprendiendo a trabajar con el paquete de RMySQL, y a la vez con bases SQL, así que a lo mejor no es tan complicado.
