One thing to watch for that hung me (and R :-) ) up for a while is: make sure your .Rprofile doesn't have any commands which are valid only in interactive sessions. I had "loadhistory()" which caused the worker Rscript.exe to fail. Replacing that line in .Rprofile with "if(interactive()) loadhistory() " and all was well. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/makeCluster-help-needed-tp4677156p4677974.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.
