Why would the virus checker cause a problem with this package, and not
any of the dozen other packaqes?

Hi,
I'm trying to get a package to pass through "R CMD check --as-cran" and
have run into a problem that gives me no idea where to look to fix it.
I'm running R version 15.1 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine, with the
current set of Rtools. An attempt to check the package dies at the
following step:
* checking running R code from vignettes ...
'SIBER.Rnw' ...Warning in file(con, "r") :
cannot open file 'SIBER.Rnw.log': Permission denied
Error in file(con, "r") : cannot open the connection
Execution halted
The file "SIBER.Rnw.log" was successfully created. All of the R code
from the Sweave file was excuted; the last exceutable line was a call to
sessionInfo(). The last lines of the log file are:
> sessionInfo()

We have about a dozen other packages that we maintain, and all of the
others check, build, and install with no problems.
Does anyone have any idea why this file permission issue would crop up
here? Or what I can do to fix it?
Windows machines sometimes have permission problems when a virus
checker opens a file in an exclusive mode for checking. If this
applies to you, you may be able to configure the checks to ignore the
directory you're working in, or temporarily disable it completely. Or
you could switch virus checkers to one that is less hostile to your work.
