Has anyone successfully used Rcmd install or Rcmd check on Windows Vista? I have been successfully been running R itself, just not Rcmd install and Rcmd check.
Rcmd check fails, the Ryacas.Rcheck it creates is read-only, I don't have permission to delete it and I have to reset the permissions on it just to delete it. With Rcmd install I am getting the following which looks like I am running into permissions problems and, of course, these also show up in Rcmd check. I had installed R into C:\Program Files\R\R-2.6.0 and my library location is in C:/Users/... as seen below. I found I had to set tmpdir and R_LIBS appropriately to run Rcmd check and install to even get this far. ----------- Making package Ryacas ------------ adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION installing R files installing demos installing inst files find: C:/Users/ggroth/Documents/R/win-library/2.6/Ryacas/doc: Permission denied find: C:/Users/ggroth/Documents/R/win-library/2.6/Ryacas/yacdir: Permission denied ... make[2]: *** [C:/Users/ggroth/Documents/R/win-library/2.6/Ryacas/inst] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make: *** [pkg-Ryacas] Error 2 *** installation of Ryacas failed *** Removing 'C:/Users/ggroth/Documents/R/win-library/2.6/Ryacas' Can't read C:/Users/ggroth/Documents/R/win-library/2.6/Ryacas/doc: Invalid argument at C:\PROGRA~1\R\R-26~1.0/bin/install line 434 Can't remove directory C:/Users/ggroth/Documents/R/win-library/2.6/Ryacas/doc: Directory not empty at C:\PROGRA~1\R\R-26~1.0/bin/install line 434 ... and additionl similar lines ... ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
