I would like to set up a Windows XP environment with R and MySQL.
This set-up was recommended by a friend who uses this set up, but I
have been unable to get RJDBC to work. I have installed all of the
software today (June 2 2008), first deleting and then replacing old
versions of software.
The error is as follows:
Error in .jfindClass(as.character(driverClass)[1]) : class not found
This error is produced after running the following code ():
library(RJDBC)
drv <- JDBC("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver",
"/etc/jdbc/mysql-connector-java-5.1.6-bin.jar",
identifier.quote="`")
This code was modified from code at www.rforge.net/RJDBC to include
version 5.1.6 of the driver. Version 3.1.14 gave the same error. I
think that R is having trouble finding the class (driver) in the .jar
file even though I can see it using winzip. I have limited knowledge
of R and Java, but use other programing languages for work. Thank you
for your help.
