Hi everyone, I've followed the instructions from R-Admin Section 6.6 for creating a local repository. I've modified my Rprofile.site file to add the local repository to my repos, but I haven't been able to successfully install my package from the repo.
Here's the code that I've run. ################################## sessionInfo() getOption("repos") setwd("Q:/Integrated Planning/R") list.files(path = ".", recursive = TRUE) tools::write_PACKAGES("bin/windows/contrib/2.15", type = "win.binary") list.files(path = ".", recursive = TRUE) install.packages("RTIO") install.packages("RTIO", repos = "Q:/Integrated Planning/R") install.packages("RTIO", repos = "Q:/Integrated Planning/R", type = "win.binary") unlink(c("bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES","bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES.gz")) ############ And here it is with output included: ########### > sessionInfo() R version 2.15.1 (2012-06-22) Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit) locale: [1] LC_COLLATE=English_Australia.1252 LC_CTYPE=English_Australia.1252 LC_MONETARY=English_Australia.1252 LC_NUMERIC=C LC_TIME=English_Australia.1252 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_2.15.1 > getOption("repos") CRAN CRANextra MyLocal "http://cran.ms.unimelb.edu.au/" "http://www.stats. ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin" "file://Q:/Integrated Planning/R" > setwd("Q:/Integrated Planning/R") > list.files(path = ".", recursive = TRUE) [1] "bin/windows/contrib/2.15/RTIO_0.1-2.zip" > tools::write_PACKAGES("bin/windows/contrib/2.15", type = "win.binary") > list.files(path = ".", recursive = TRUE) [1] "bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES" "bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES.gz" "bin/windows/contrib/2.15/RTIO_0.1-2.zip" > > install.packages("RTIO") Installing package(s) into C:/Program Files/R/R-2.15.1/library (as lib is unspecified) Warning in install.packages : cannot open compressed file '//Q:/Integrated Planning/R/bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES', probable reason 'No such file or directory' Error in install.packages : cannot open the connection > install.packages("RTIO", repos = "Q:/Integrated Planning/R") Installing package(s) into C:/Program Files/R/R-2.15.1/library (as lib is unspecified) Warning in install.packages : unable to access index for repository Q:/Integrated Planning/R/bin/windows/contrib/2.15 Warning in install.packages : package RTIO is not available (for R version 2.15.1) > install.packages("RTIO", repos = "Q:/Integrated Planning/R", type = "win.binary") Installing package(s) into C:/Program Files/R/R-2.15.1/library (as lib is unspecified) Warning in install.packages : unable to access index for repository Q:/Integrated Planning/R/bin/windows/contrib/2.15 Warning in install.packages : package RTIO is not available (for R version 2.15.1) > > unlink(c("bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES","bin/windows/contrib/2.15/PACKAGES.gz")) > ####################################### I'd really like to be able to use "install.packages("RTIO")" without having to specify the repo, as this will make it easy for our other less experienced R users. Any ideas why I get "warning: cannot open compressed file" and "error: cannot open the connection"? As far as I can tell, I've followed the R-Admin 6.6 instructions exactly. If it matters, Q: is a mapped network drive. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
