Hello, I administer a student (Windows based) computer lab, which has R installed. I want to permit students to install R packages, but of course they don't have write permission to R root folder. Following FAQ suggestion, I've set up a folder that they can write to, and set the R_LIB parameter on the shortcut to this folder. So far, so good - they can now install packages.

Hello, I am a bit over my head on this issue. My colleagues and I are running R off of our server. We all have admin rights and prior to yesterday we all had our own libraries. Our main system administrator advised us that we should have a shared library. So, I am trying to do this. I have downloaded the latest version of R and installed it on the main drive of our server in the "Program

Hello, I am running R on a server that several people share. Previously we all had separate libraries for R. I have set up R so everyone on the server shares the same library and I downloaded the latest version of R and installed it on the main drive of our server in the "Program Files" folder (obvious enough). I changed the Environmental Variables in the advanced system setting so

Hi, Sorry for posting a question that has been asked before but I couldn't quite find the right answer in previous help topics. I am trying to set my library path to a user-specified library ("C:/Users/K/Documents/Work/RLib"). I have used .libPaths("C:/Users/K/Documents/Work/RLib") but when I check the .libPaths(), both the user-specified and default libraries appear. It

Dear all, I'm experiencing an unusual installation error for one package. Could anyone suggest how I can best investigate this from here please? I'm sorry this isn't very much to go on. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. The problem seems to be my library. It is large (3,418 packages) and I'd like to avoid rebuilding it, if possible. All packages are up to

Hello, I have downloaded and installed e1071_1.1-0.tar.gz, my first add-on package. Because I am not the sys admin I installed it to my own home dir under ~/.R/library/ I read in the faq that I should make changes to the R_lib env variable in my .bashprofile or .Renviron files to make the new personal library components available. Unfortunately neither of these exist in my home dir. Can anyone

I am using R 2.0.1 Patched on Windows 2000. I have created a binary package for Windows that builds, checks, installs and works without errors. In some of my .Rd files, I have links to functions in the standard packages supplied with R as well as links to others in add-on packages that I have installed. For instance, one .Rd file has the following snippet: \seealso{

Hi, I keep getting the error message and a pop-up window for selecting CRAN mirror server from Rgui.exe after setting the R_Libs Warning in install.packages(necessary[!installed], dep = T) : argument 'lib' is missing: using 'D:/Program Files/R/R-2.8.0.libs' --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- Error in contrib.url(repos, type) : I set the command

Doing help("R_LIBS") brings up a help file (the same one as help(library)), but the help file doesn't mention R_LIBS. It does have a link to .libPaths, which does document R_LIBS. The quickest fix would be for help("R_LIBS") to bring up the .libPaths help file. --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-mingw32 arch = i386 os = mingw32

Though Navigator may mess up any Rtools stuff because it handles the directory trees where packages and dependencies are located, does it not? If so, maybe just reinstall RStudio directly from its website to proceed. Just a guess obviously.

Dear all; I found a useful video on youtube that has explained how to install Rtools. I followed the instructions and the problem was solved.

Dear Rui; Many thanks for your reply. I have installed Rtools (rtools43-5958-5975) on my PC and I have R version 4.3.3 and 4.3.2 to install. Also I have installed Rstudio through Anaconda Navigator. But I do not know how to use Rtools for installing the R packages. I would be more than happy if you help me. Sincerely yours > Dear Rui; > I hope this email finds you well. I have a problem

Good day, I believe from the documentation that folders in R_LIBS should appear in the output of .libPaths, but they do not. The documentation contains "The library search path is initialized at startup from the environment variable R_LIBS ..." However, $ export R_LIBS=/users/stgrad/dario/tmp/ $ Rscript -e ".libPaths()" [1] "/dskh/nobackup/biostat/Bioconductor"

Hi, R people. I'm shy reporting this, as a bug in this area sounds very unlikely. Did I make my tests wrongly? I'm still flaky at all this. Let me dare nevertheless, who knows, just in case... Please don't kill me! :-) Not so long ago, I wrote to this list: > (For now, [the library code] works only for me when I do _not_ use `-l > MY/OWN/LIBDIR' at `R CMD INSTALL'

Hi there, I'm in the following directory: ~/Documents/Rstuff/diceFiles/dice_1.1 The directory "dice" is in this directory, with all the usual build files (DESCRIPTION, NAMESPACE, etc). I'm trying to run the following command: R CMD check dice (where "dice" is the name of the package I'm checking), and I get the following: * checking package dependencies ...

I asked a couple of months ago in r-sig-fedora about a difference I noticed between Ubuntu and RedHat/Fedora. Now I think I've figured out the cause is a little issue in packaging but I don't know how to get it fixed. On Ubuntu, the setup is like this. It i is controlled in a file called Renviron R packages built/distributed in RPM are installed to /usr/lib/R/library. R packages built

Dear List, Further to my earlier email, I note that, for me at least, R CMD check is *not* reading R_LIBS from ~/.R/check.Renviron on R 2.15.2 patched (r61228) and R Under Development (r61660). The only way I can get R CMD check to look for packages in a user-supplied library is by explicitly exporting R_LIBS set to the relevant directory. R CMD build *does* read R_LIBS from ~/.R/build.Renviron

Wish to install a local source package on Un*x platform from within R. Same thing as I can accomplish from cmdline as $ export R_LIBS=~/R/library $ cd /path/to/pkg $ R CMD INSTALL -l $R_LIBS <pkgname> So, how do you go about this anyway? And isn't this a bug in 'install.packages'? ------- $ R R : Copyright 2004, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 1.9.0

Hello, I am wondering if there has been a solution to the following issue with R under Windows (see also thread to PR#6662 in this mailing list: http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04a/0550.html ) I am using R for teaching students Statistics, so they are working with a university-wide installation of R.
