Actually, we are using the Windows command shell rather than any DOS.

upper and lower cases don't make a difference).

Nowadays "build" is internal to R and no longer a filename. And since R is case sensitive.....

Best,

I was wrong however.
Thanks for the help

What did you try?
R CMD build (build all lower case) does work for me

Dear all,

As I couldn't find any thread on the internet I hope the help-list might help 
me out.

I've tried to update Rtools from R210 used in combination with R2.9.1 to R211 
in combination with R2.11.1. However, I do not succeed.

I have R2.11.1 running, as well as Inno Setup 5, HTML help and MikTex. A 
version of Perl is installed too. Environment variable paths are set to link to 
these directories too.

However, when I try to build a library using: R CMD BUILD mypackage it 
immediately crashes as apparently it cannot find the file 'build' in 
R-2.11.1/bin. Indeed, this file is not present there (only build.pl) while this 
file is present in the R-2.9.1/bin directory.

What obvious thing am I doing wrong.

Your help is much appreciated.

With regards,

Niels Hintzen
