Trying to install RMySQL on 64-bit Windows 7.
Using R-2.14.2 with Rtools214 and MySQL Server 5.5.
Read through several step-by-steps of RMySQL source installation.
Troubleshooting:
- Copied libmysql.dll to R-2.14.2/bin AND R-2.14.2/bin/i386.
- Copied libmysql.dll and libmysql.lib to MySQL Server 5.5\lib\opt.
- Entered MYSQL_HOME=C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5 into
Renviron.site, saved to R\R-2.14.2\etc.
My instances of common problems:
Sys.getenv('MySQL_HOME') [1] "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server
5.5\"
install.packages('RMySQL', type = 'source') Installing
package(s) ... ...
RS-DBI.c:1:0: sorry, unimplemented: 64-bit mode not compiled in make:
[RS-DBI.o] Error 1* ERROR: compilation failed for package
'RMySQL' ...
I'm guessing my problem lies in the '64-bit mode...' message, but
I'm not
sure.
Thoughts?
A. You failed to follow the instructions in 'R Installation and
Administration' about how to set your toolchain: it would be easier
to upgrade to Rtools215, for which R 2.14.2 is configured by default
(but can be told how to use Rtools214).
B. Is libmysql.dll 32- or 64-bit? Both variants exist, and you need
to match the version of R you use.
He also failed to inform the rhelp readership that this was earlier
