I have been using R version 2.15.1 happly along side R Commander. I then tried to go through a fresh install using the latest version of R, R 3.0.1. The trouble started when I wanted to install Rcmdr, I kept getting an error message about previous installs of R Commander. I went through and deinstalled all versions of R and tried fresh installs. Still could not get R Commander installed using the Latest version of R.
It is possible that restrictions placed on me through my work computer may be a factor. But I tried numerous times to deinstall all versions of R and reinstall R 3.0.1, but I could not install the R Commander package. I then deinstalled all versions of R and then decided to install an earlier verision of R. This time I was more succesfull and after a few repeated starts of R 2.15.1 i managed to get R Commander working. Talk about a frustrating effort, can any one put any light on this issue? I work at a University where firewalls may be a factor, but this is only a guess. Please dont get too technical I know very little of how R installs itself and finds out where various packages and modules are. PS I am using Windows 7 as the operating system. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/New-Version-of-R-3-0-1-problems-with-installing-Rcmdr-tp4675414.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
