The source function is quite convenient for invoking a set of R commands that 
have already been debugged. It is pretty worthless for troubleshooting. You 
need to step through those commands one at a time, then do it again, to see 
which command triggers this error.

source() is fine for troubleshooting: just use the echo=TRUE option, and you'll see when it fails. In 2.15.0-patched, it can even report the line of the source file that caused the problem.

Reza was bitten by a bug in 2.14.0, that's all.

My response to the last version of this query stands... what is in 
"~/Documents/myFile.R"?

Hi all,
I have the exact same problem in R 2.14.0, which does not seem to be
due to
using the quotation mark. When I say
source("~/Documents/myFile.R")
for the first time (after I start R), it works fine, but when I run it
for
a second time (even when I empty the workspace and rerun every thing,
just
like the first time), it returns the exact same error, i.e.,

Error in srcfilecopy(filename, lines, file.info(filename)[1, "mtime"])
:
  unused argument(s) (file.info(filename)[1, "mtime"])

Can you please help?
Cheers
