Uwe, now I've tried these steps, following RMySQL installation instructions
(http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RMySQL/INSTALL):
1. Download the RMySQL_0.9.tar.gz file to the folder C:\Program
Files\R\R-2.15.1\bin\x64
2. Open a Windows command line, and change directory to that folder
3. Enter the following commands:
set MYSQL_HOME=C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 5.5
R CMD INSTALL RMySQL_0.9.tar.gz
The output ends with:
"gcc.exe: error: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5/bin/libmySQL.dll:
No such file or directory
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'RMySQL'
* removing 'C:/Users/Acer/Documents/R/win-library/2.15/RMySQL' "
The problem seems to be that it points to an incorrect folder to find the
file 'libmySQL.dll' . This file is located at 'C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL
Server 5.5/lib'
