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. I've read many postings about this but have not found a mention of my particular problem (some closely related). I get the "unable to load shared library, no such file" error, but all the files do exist, RMySQL.so and

I don't use MySQL but I have seen messages like this before. They often have replies which indicate that you need to follow the instructions more closely. I suggest you search the list for these previous posts as I'm sure there is help there, somewhere!

Heya Folks, I can not find anything on executing insert statement through RMySQL, can someone please enlighten me? All i've found so far on getting data into a database is the write table functionality. Reading all data into memory appending additional information and writing that into a table is fine on my test environment, but won't be possible on the production environment because of

Hello, I have trouble installing and loading the RMySQL package on OS X 2.8. The package seems to install from source fine (using R package manager from within the R environment). I have the following error when I try to load the package: loading package: RMySQL Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library

Hi, useR- In RMySQL, how do I overwrite records? (equivalent to "replace" query). For example, suppose that dat2 is a newer data.frame than dat1. con <- dbConnect(MySQL()) res <- dbWriteTable(con, "DBname", dat1, row.names=F, append=T, replace=T) res <- dbWriteTable(con, "DBname", dat2, row.names=F, append=T, replace=T) This would not update/replace the

Hi, I'm using R 1.9.0 with RMySQL 0.5-4 and MySQL 3.23.55 on a suse 8.2 box. I have a simulation study and (as usual for newbies in simulation, I guess) I have a lot of data that I want to store in MySQL. I want to write an R script that reads data from RData files and writes it to a MySQL database. I read some R documents (R Data Import/Export and DSC papers) but I'm finding

I have been having trouble getting RMySQL to work on Mac OS 10.4. It was working fine for me about a year ago but I didn't touch it for a while and several upgrades of R, MySQL, and OS X later, it is not working. I first had the problem that others have been having getting the error discussed in https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2005- November/002435.html saying that

Hi, I have a problem loading RMySQL 0.5-5 on Mac OS 10.4.2 running R 2.1.1.

I'm having some problems with valid field names when using RMySQL to interface R (version 1.7.0, under RedHat9.0), to MySQL (4.1.0-alpha). I think I've spotted the problem and a solution (which is working for me), but I wanted to share this with you as I may be missing something. (Note: I'm aware that this is an old R version, but I've checked the code of the lastest version of

Hi, I have a question reading using RMySQL trying to load one R vector into a table column. To be more specifically, the table is there populated. Now I add a new column and want to populate this. Can some colleagues on this list teach me how to do this? I know how to write one R object/table into MYSQL table using dbWriteTable. But in this situation, I just want to do one column. Thanks

Hi All, I've finally gotten around to database access using R. I'm happily extracting rows from a MySQL database using RMySQL, but am having problems appending rows to an existing table. What I *want* to do is to append rows to the table, allowing the database to automatically generate primary key values. I've only managed to add rows by using dbWriteTable( con,

Greetings all, I am running R 2.5.1, RMySQL 0.6 , and DBI 0.2-3 on Windows XP Like others, I am having trouble with NA/Null value conversions between R and a MySQL database via DBI, but I could not find my exact problem in the archives. Most of the time NA values in R get transferred correctly to the database and back again, unless (apparently) if they are in the last column of the table being

Hi, I would like to access a local mysql database. In python using the sqlite3 library it is quite straightforward. I just have to pass the path to the sqlite-file; sqlite3.connect('.../xy.sqlite') Is there something similar in R (or specifically in the RMySQL package)?

Hello, Some weeks ago, thanks to you, I managed to install R, to connect to a local MySQL Database and to launch some queries with a script written with Tinn-R. My script is now ok and would like to test it with the "real" database.

Hi R users, I have been trying to install and use RMySQL on Windows98 for MySQL3.23.55-max using the pulldown menu. I am getting the following errors.

I am using R 2.8 and the latest versions of RMySQL on a Windows XP 64 bit machine. I was wondering if someone could help me figure out how to use dbWriteTable without inserting \r into my table. Consider the following code snippet, which is run after I connect to my database. myDFOut = dbReadTable(conn, "myDF") print(myDFOut) myDFIn = data.frame(x=paste("x", 1:5, sep =
