Dear R-Community,

since I work on a PC at the University I have not the necessary rights for all devices 
and therefore my library is located on a net device. The installation process worked and 
everything is right apart from one little thing - the help files. When I try to search 
with the function "?helptopic" I allways get an URL error. The problem is 
obvious from the error message because it gives the path where R tries to find the help 
files. R mixes two paths in the way that it uses the default path of the home directiory 
followed by my user defined path given via .libPaths. How can I give R the information 
about the right path without using the default path and mix both up when searching the 
help files. Can I simply add a line in the Rprofile.site file?

I do not know if this is a problem, but my personal working directory is 
diffrend from my personal library path?

Thanks in advance ...


Can you give an example what the directories are and how R mixes up the PATH after you have asked for help?

Please tell us as much as possible about the setup, where the package lives and what exactly happened.

Cheers,

Nils
