Dear List,

I am trying to connect from R 2.9.2 on Win XP SP3 to a remotely installed PostgreSQL DB (8.3.7 on Ubuntu Server 9.04). Everything seems to be properly installed, as I can connect to the DB from within Excel and RKWard (running on another machine). But regarding R on the Win XP, I cannot load RPostgreSQL. libpq.dll is missing. What can I do now, without having to install PostgreSQL on this Windows, where I do not need it as I have my remote DB?

Well, you need libpq.dll for RPostgreSQL in any case since the package links dynamically against that library. Or connect with another method to your database.

Thanks in advance
