The resolution to my problem was specific to Mac OS X and had nothing to do
with the R module in particular. In case others have a similar problem, here
is my solution.
First, write18 must be enabled. As described by Aditya Mahajan, edit
/usr/local/teTeX/texmf.cnf so that shell_escape = t.
I can confirm that this works from the command line:
R CMD BATCH -q --save --restore rsample-r-1.tmp rsample-r-1.tmp.out
using the sample file from the r module. Running this command for each of the r
segments will produce the desired output. What I haven't determined is how to
modify the r

This means that write18 is disabled on your system, so tex cannot
execute any system commands. This is a security feature and most
intallation disable write18 by default. You need to edit your
texmf.cnf file to enable it. Search for texmf.cnf
I spotted the announcement of the use of R in ConTeXt and was quite interested
in trying it out. However, so far I haven't been able to get it to work. It
appears that R is not being called by texexec and the .tmp.out are not being
found, despite the fact that they are being produced.
Are there
