Hello,

I am running R on a server that several people share. Previously we
all had separate libraries for R.
I have set up R so everyone on the server shares the same library and
I downloaded the latest version of R and installed it on the
main drive of our server in the  "Program Files" folder (obvious
enough).

I changed the Environmental Variables in the advanced system setting
so R_LIBS  is C:\\RLIBRARY and restarted the server.

The commands :
.libPaths()
[1] "C:\\RLIBRARY"                    "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-211~1.0/library"


1. So this is a Terminal Server, not a network drive, right?


.Library
[1] "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-211~1.0/library"


  When I try to run several packages it says It can not load them
(although many packages do work). So I tried
to install the  packages again (I deleted the old ones, downloaded a zip file
of the new ones  and this is what happened :

library(Hmisc)
Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) :
  shared library 'cluster' not found
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'Hmisc'


Strange, since cluster is a recommended package. Have you inspected the permissions in the directory of your R installation?

******But, I can fix this by setting the lib.loc

library(cluster, lib.loc =  "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-211~1.0/library" )

******Unfortunately this is not where the updated packages went, the
updated package went to  "C:\\RLIBRARY" . I have messed something up
and I do not know how to fix it.

At first, look at write / read permissions in both libraries.

Any advice would be welcome.


Thanks,
