The binary package you downloaded is a binary for R < 2.11.x. Since it is a package bndle, it cannot work on R-2.11.x anymore: Package bundles are no longer supported.

Dear R experts,

There seems to be a problem (please see the error messages below) with the
installation of the latest version of xpose4 (version 4.2.1) with the latest
R version.(2.11.1)... I didn't face such installation problems when using
version R.2.10.1

Would really appreciate your assistance in debugging installation of xpose
4..2.1 with R.2.11.1

Thanks again..

Dear R experts...
I would really appreciate your suggestions in installing a package in
Windows Vista...

I am unable to install a package on a windows vista based computer, in
spite of running it as an administrator. The package "xpose4.2.1" is
available from "
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xpose/files/Xpose4/Xpose_4.2.1/xpose4_4.2.1_win32.zip/download
"

Following is the error message when I try to install the package from the
Rgui command line...
I get similar errors when I try to install the packages from Rgui
("Packages | Install packages from local zip files") menu, but with default
lib="C:/Users/santosh/Documents/R/win-library/2.11"
.___________________________________________________________

install.packages("C:/Users/santosh/Downloads/xpose4_4.2.1_win32.zip",repos=NULL,lib="C:/Program
Files/R/R-2.11.1/library")
Error in gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In gzfile(file, "r") :
   cannot open compressed file 'xpose4_4.2.1_win32/DESCRIPTION', probable
reason 'No such file or directory'

However, I see "fileXXXXXXXX" folder in which the library related folders
are installed, and contains different xpose4 related folders..

Thanks again,
Santosh
