Sorry. I should have looked at the sas.Rout. Indeed, the network file
cannot be read.
This seems to be the same problem that was happening a couple of versions
ago and had to do with our firewall not allowing certain connections. The
solution then was to use the --internet2 switch. The same thing happens
now. If I do
Rcmd.exe BATCH --internet2 sas.R
it works. Without --internet2 it does not. What confused me was that it
works fine from the R console, although I do not use the --internet2 switch
when starting up interactive R (I used to have to do it explicitly in my R
link). Apparently there is no need for --internet2 in Rgui but there is in
Rcmd, although I am almost sure that I did not see this problem when 2.6
was coming out.

Re: [Rd] R-2.7.0 RC (2008-04-20

That check needs a (large) file from the internet. Your symptoms would be
consistent with it being temporarily unavailable. I would have expected
you to look at sas.Rout to see what happened.
