I have run into a problem loading a just saved R object using R-devel. I have been saving and loading this particular type of R object for a long while and never ran into this problem. I save, then immediately reload (to test save) and get "ReadItem: unnknown type 65". This error is reproducible after logout from server and restart of emacs and R. Below is my output and

Martin, Well, thanks for jumping in! We need all the help we can get ;) I changed the execute bit as you suggested and recompiled, no luck, still the same error message. Below is the output you wanted me to look at, its a bit beyond me so I include both a brief grep summary and then the whole enchilada. I do note that my output is different from yours, but I'm not sure how to interpret. I

I have identical R.profiles and R_HOME directories set up on both my local machine and a remote linux cluster. To keep my libraries and R install separate, I use a site-library on both machines. The first line of my .Rprofile is: '.libPaths(new= "~/R_HOME/site-library") #tell R where site-library is' Until R-2.6.0 this was working fine on both machines, but since I have been

Hi Patrick, Greetings from !(sunny) Pittsburgh. What's the scoop on RCurl on windows (XP)? I've tried to install RCurl_0.92-0.zip and RCurl_0.9-3.zip, with both R 2.7.2 and R 2.8.0 from the RGUI (utils:::menuInstallLocal), and get the error "Windows binary packages in zipfiles are not supported". which (according to google's one and only hit) comes from a perl script.

Dear list, I would like to call a Kerberos-authenticated web-service from within R. Curl can do it: $ curl --negotiate -u : "http://my.web.service/" so I would expect that RCurl also has the capability, but I have not been able to find the correct options to set. listCurlOptions() does not return anything with negotiate, and searching the source of RCurl, the only thing I found was

Dear all, I am trying to install RCurl (because I want to install devtools) and to do so I've been informed that I must install one of the packages libcurl4-openssl-dev libcurl4-nss-dev No matter which one I install I get the following error from R: * installing *source* package ‘RCurl’ ... ** package ‘RCurl’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked checking for curl-config...

Hi, I am trying to access a website and read its content. The website is a restricted access website that I access through a proxy server (which therefore requires me to enable cookies). I have problems in allowing Rcurl to receive and send cookies. The following lines give me: library(RCurl) library(XML) url <- "http://www.theurl.com" content <- readHTMLTable(url) content

(e.g. install.packages("RCurl", repos = "http://www.omegahat.org/R") I work with Ubuntu Hardy, and installed R 2.6.2 via apt-get. I really need RCurl in order to use biomaRt ... any help would be greatly appreciated. Best wishes, Emmanuel

Hi List, I am trying to leverage my knowledge of R in trying to use it for tasks that may not make R the best choice for these tasks. I wish to automate a web scraping task, which requires a multi-step procedure: 1) log in to a website 2) Go to a particular page 3) From the drop down menu, click on a particular link 4) From the tabulated data presented, choose relevant information based on a

Hello, I am having trouble getting the curlPerform function to authenticate using the .netrc file. From the documentation I've read it certainly seems as though this function should be able to authenticate via the .netrc file. The example I am using here comes from the "R as a Web Client- the RCurl package" paper and demonstrates using the .netrc file to access the

Hi everyone, I have to fetch about 300 to 500 zipped archives from a remote ftp server. Each of the archive is about 1Mb. I know I can get it done by using download.file() in R, but I am curious that is there a faster way to do this using RCurl.

I just downloaded R-devel and when loaded it immediately segfaults. I'm not sure how much or what sort of diagnostic info and can provide, but below is my build script, my console output, and the output of uname -r. I am currently dependent on the development version of a package, so I'd like to get R-devel up and running if possible. I am sure there is more info I can provide, but before
