similar to: odfWeave problem "Error in xmlEventParse"

Dear list, This is a copy of a mail sent to Max Kuhn, original author and maintainer of the odfWeave package, which seems not to have received it. It reports a problem that seems to be very implementation specific (reproductible on three Debian testing amd64 machine, does *not* happen on two i686 Debian testing systems, does *not* happen on an Ubuntu 11.06 amd64 machine) and therefore not

Hello all- I'm having a problem with odfWeave. I'm still testing it out, and have used both of these code chunks, which I copied off a blog: Number 1: A sample document last processed \Sexpr{Sys.time()}. This simply illustrates the output from an R command inserted into our document. This is using \Sexpr{version$version.string}. Number 2: <<Sample1>>= summary(iris) @

Hello, I hope there is a simple explanation for this. I have been using odfWeave with great satisfaction in R 2.5.0. Unfortunately, I cannot get beyond the following error message with a particular file. I have copied and pasted into new files and the same error pops up. It looks like the error is occurring before any of the R code is run (?). Any suggestions on how to track this down and fix

Dear list, dear Max, I a currently working on a report. I'm writing it with OpenOffice.org and odfWeave. I'm working increentally : I write a bit, test (interactively) some ideas, cutting-and-pasting code to the Ooo report when satisfied with it. I the process, I tend to recompile the .odt source a *lot*. Suddenly, odfWeave started to give me an incomprehensible error even before

Hi everybody, I don't get odfWeave to run properly. My odt file is as a simple as: ------------------------ Some text. <<echo=FALSE>>= print(1:10) @ ----------------------- The output I get ist the following: ----------------------------------- > odfWeave("roffice.odt", "rofficeOUT.odt") Copying roffice.odt Setting wd to

Dear all, I have a question regarding the odfweave. I created an odt file (test_input.odt) using OO.o for WIndows XP. The code is generic. ---- Code for odt ----------- \Sexpr{dim(iris)[1]} <<listofSpecies, echo=FALSE, results=xml>>= odfItemize(levels(iris$Species)) @ Table 1: <<Table, echo=FALSE, results=xml>>= data.frame(N =tapply(iris$Petal.Length, iris$Species,

Hello all, I try the follow test with an odf file. *INPUT: teste.odt* <teste, results=xml>>= x <- matrix(rnorm(6), nc=2) xst <- tableStyles(x, useRowNames = TRUE, header = NULL) odfTable(x, styles=xst, colnames = NULL, useRowNames = TRUE) @ and I get this error: *OUTPUT error:* Error: chunk 1 (label=teste) Error in matrixPaste(textStart, textName, textEnd, x, tagEnd, sep =

odfWeave is throwing up a cryptic error, after successfully processing a file with a large number of figures (~30) and many \Sexpr{} calls. The error is (at least to me) cryptic. I am not sure where to look to correct this problem. Here's the error: Post-processing the contents Error in .Call("RS_XML_Parse", file, handlers, endElementHandlers, as.logical(addContext), :

Dear all, I am doing my first steps with odfWeave. After running the r code (see below), I am trying to open the ODF-document with open office, but I am getting the error message: "The file is damaged, but it can be repaired". If I confirm the question and repair the file with open office, I can open it with the desired output, which seems to be fine. My system: R Version 2.9.1

Hello All, Have recently started learning Sweave and Knitr. Am now trying to learn odfWeave as well. Things went pretty smoothly with Sweave and Knitr but I'm having some trouble with odfWeave. My understanding was that odfWeave should work in pretty much the same way as Sweave. With odfWeave, you set up an input .odt file in a folder, run that file through the odfWeave function, and then

Hello R masters, I have sent this same message to other lists and none so far could give some light. I was trying to use odfWeave to generate a report from R and Im getting an error that I think is related to latin characters. I looked around and did find some stuff related to this problem about Sweave http://labmoluscos.wordpress.com/2010/02/18/sweave-latex-character-encoding/ but did not find a

Dear all, I'm resurrecting this old post (about 6 monts old, reproduced thereafter) because I have struggled against the same problem and found a solution so that I found it was worth posting for the record. The simple fix when you want to use odfWeave with 7-ZIP as a compressing/decompressing utility under windows is to use the 'x' instead of the 'e' option so as to preserve

Dear Max, dear list, I have trouble using odfInsertPlot to insert plots outside fig=TRUE chunks. My goal is to dump a bunch of (relatively uninteresting, but required) graphs from within a loop, possibly interspeded with some tables. This is not possible within a normal fig=TRUE chunk. odfInsertPlot() is able to insert a previously saved plot. When used in a fig=TRUE, results=hide chunk, it

Dear All, I have a question regarding best practise in setting up a XML parser within R. Because I have files with more than 100 MB and I'm only interested in some values I think a SAX-like parser using xmlEventParse() will be the best solution. Unfortunately the values I'm looking for, to construct some higher "mass spectrum", are distributed over different lines: as

Hey guys, I?m just getting started with R (version 2.12.0) and odfWeave and kinda stumble from one problem to the next, the current one is the following: trying to use odfWeave: > odfctrl <- odfWeaveControl( + zipCmd = c("C:/Program Files/unz552dN/VBunzip.exe $$file$$ .", + "C:/Program Files/unz552dN/VBunzip.exe $$file$$")) > >

Could someone provide a link or examples of parsing XML document in R? Few specific questions below: For instance I can retrieve specific nodes using this: node <- xpathApply(xml, "//" %+% xtag, xmlValue) 1) I want to be able to retrieve parent node for this node, how can I do this? getParentNode() does not seem to cut it. 2) How can I retrieve children nodes for a particular

Hello everyone, I'm trying to parse a very large XML file using SAX with the XML package (i.e., mainly the xmlEventParsing function). This function takes as an argument a list of other functions (handlers) that will be called to handle particular xml nodes. If when I use Rprof(), all the handler functions are lumped together under the <anonymous> label, and I get something like this:

Hi all, thanks to the people who replied to my question! I finally solved the issue by writing own handlers and using xmlEventParse - which leads to the following problem which is so odd that its probably a bug. I use several special charachter in my XML-File, e.g. umlauts or ? or ? - but no matter how I encode my XML (UTF or ISO) or I escape these characters xmlEventParse always stops

Hello everyone, I am probably not the only one having trouble with this package but here goes. I want to install XML on Ubuntu. I installed libxml2-dev and everything works out fine until I get the following: Error in reconcilePropertiesAndPrototype(name, slots, prototype, superClasses, : No definition was found for superclass "namedList" in the specification of class
