Dear Group, I'm having lots of problems getting RMySQL on a 64 bit machine. I followed all instructions available but couldn't get it working yet! Please help. See the output below.
I did a install of RMySQL binary from the revolution cran source. It seems to have unpacked fine but gives this error when I call RMySQL Error: package 'RMySQL' is not installed for 'arch=x64' I set this environment variable on the windows path > Sys.getenv('MYSQL_HOME') MYSQL_HOME "C:/Program Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.0" > install.packages('RMySQL',type='source') trying URL 'http://cran.revolutionanalytics.com/src/contrib/RMySQL_0.7-5.tar.gz' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 160769 bytes (157 Kb) opened URL downloaded 157 Kb * installing *source* package 'RMySQL' ... checking for $MYSQL_HOME...
