Hi R users,

Working from a PC, I am trying to install the spatstat package on a Unix 
cluster. I created the following PBS file to send a job array:

#!/bin/bash -ue

#PBS -m ae
#PBS -M my email
#PBS -J 1-45
#PBS -A my username
#PBS -N job name
#PBS -l resources
#PBS -l walltime

cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR

module load R/2.14.1

R CMD INSTALL -l /path/to/library spatstat

This command installs *a* source package from the current subdirectory spatstat.

If there is no such directory containing the sources, it won't work.
Either provide the gzipped tarball and give its name or use install.packages("spatstat") within an R script.

It makes sense to install it outside the parallel processing into a common directory and just use it in parallel (It is not entirely clear to me if you are really running the installation on all nodes).

R CMD BATCH /path/to/folder/Script_$PBS_ARRAY_INDEX.R

Obviosuly I failed to understand pag 19 of the R admin manual because I keep 
getting the following error message:

Warning: invalid package ‘spatstat’
Error: ERROR: no packages specified

I'd appreciate if you can point me in the right direction

Thanks
Lorenzo
