You need compile it from source code.



An alternative is to use RODBC. There are instructions on my page here:

Look in the MySQL section (obviously).

You may need to pester your admin guy to add the MySQL/ODBC connector. The instructions may not be quite up to date but hopefully you can find your way through. Our students generally manage to set it all up on their own computers.

Hello,

I convinced our new Ph student to work with R and I managed to convince the
guy in charge of the computer networks to install R 2.12.0 (we haven't the
admin rights).

I wanted to install on his computer the same packages I use (but I have R
2.11) and especially RMySQL.

Problem : there is no more RMySQL package in the list pf the packages.
I've tried to install my version but it is not compatible.

I saw on a website a possible solution using rtools but it was very unclear
to me (I'm only an end-user and French ...) and with no admin rights, I
think I won't be able to follow the proposed procedure.

Do you know where I can find a zip file of the RMySQL package for R 2.12 ?

Thanks in advance,
Ptit Bleu.

PS : everybody around me is using matlab. If I say that I have a problem to
connect R to MySQL, I will have to move to matlab. So please, help !!! :-)
