Actually I was suspected that 'r cmd build' search for 'C:/DOCUME~1/c- dutang/Local' and not 'C:/DOCUME~1/c-dutang/Local Settings'.

I will check (tomorrow) if there are any spaces in environment variables TMP*.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Does your setting of TMPDIR, TEMP or TMP have a space in it?

From the R-admin manual:

You may need to set TMPDIR to the absolute path to a suitable temporary
 directory: the default is 'c:/TEMP'.  (Use forward slashes and do not
 use a path including spaces.)

The documentation is that manual, not 'Murdoch's page', whatever that is.

Hi,

I'm trying to compile the package biglm, but when I build it with R CMD build biglm, it failed :

But when I install it, the installation is performed but I still have 'can't open' and 'no such file or directory'.

Actually, I have no directory local in 'document and settings' but a directory local settings exists. What's wrong with my installation? I install all tools as recommanded on Murdoch's page. Maybe R CMD build tries to use a temp file? in 'document and settings'?

I use R 2.7.1 with Windows xp pro.

Thanks in advance

Christophe
