Hi,
I'm newbie with QGIS and the HomeRange plugin. Thanks to this mailing list
I
just figured out how to overcome the "RHOME problem" to get the plugin to
install. Now I have another problem in that the plugin simply won't work.
The plugin window comes up but when I click "ok" to run the analysis I get
the following Python error:
An error has occured while executing Python code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"C:/Users/Corbit/.qgis//python/plugins\HomeRange_plugin\HRplugin_dialog.py",
line 76, in
QObject.connect(self.buttonBox, SIGNAL("accepted()"), lambda mth=mth:
self.run(mth))
File
"C:/Users/Corbit/.qgis//python/plugins\HomeRange_plugin\HRplugin_dialog.py",
line 178, in run

I really have no idea how to fix this problem. Any help would be
appreciated.

To: [email protected]
Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Hi,
I'm a newbie with Quantum GIS (I got it 2 days ago) and I probably have a
very newbie problem.
I have a problem with the installation of the HomeRange plugin. I get the
following error message: "Unable to determine R version from the
registery.
Calling the command 'R RHOME' does not return anything. This might be
because R.exe is nowhere in your Path."
I use Windows XP, QGIS 1.3.0. "Mimas" and R 2.9.1. I also installed
Python,
R packages rgdal and adehabitat and rpy2 as stated in the install file of
the HomeRange_plugin (I must admit I only have a vague idea of what is
Python and rpy2 are). However, in the QGIS Wiki page of HomeRange plugin,
it
is written that "libraries *MUST* be installed with the OSGeo4W
installer".
Maybe it is the source of my problem, because I have not use OSGeo4W to
install the previous items (in fact I still don't know how to use it and
I
have so much to learn in the open source gis world). Does anyone have an
idea of what could be the problem?
Thank you very much for your help,
Mathieu Ouellette

Hi Mathieu,
the RHOME problem is quite common, as the R installer often fails in
adding the environment variable to the system. This means that other
programs (rpy2) don't know where R is installed and can't call it.
You can solve the RHOME issue by adding the path to R installation (e.g.
C:\Programs\R\R-2.9.1\bin) to the Environment variables, calling it
"RHOME":
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw-FAQ.html#How-do-I-set-environment-variables_003f
the dependencies are indeed the greatest difficulty of HR_plugin
install, especially on Windows, sorry...
QGIS can be installed either as standalone program
http://download.osgeo.org/qgis/win32/QGIS-1.3.0-3-No-GrassSetup.exe
either via OSGeo4W installer, that offers also other programs
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/
The standalone installation has advantages and disadvantages. It allows
you to use the system's Python and have a better control on all
programs, but requires you to keep an eye on all dependencies and pay
attention when upgrading each of them.
The OSGeo4W installer allows you to install QGIS, Python and rpy2 all
together, except R that needs to be installed separately. The upgrades
are smoother, but the Python it uses is its own, not the system's
Python. So if you install some packages for the system's Python, QGIS'
Python won't use them.
I hope this explanation gives some light on the topic :) if not, feel
free to ask for more info!
regards,
Anne

Hi,
I have a problem with the installation of the HomeRange plugin. I get
the following error message: "Unable to determine R version from the
registery. Calling the command 'R RHOME' does not return anything.
This might be because R.exe is nowhere in your Path."
After installing R on a windows platform you need to add the path to the
R binaries in the windows "path" environment variable
open
control panel -> system -> advanced -> environment variables -> path
the click "edit" and then add in the end a ";" and then the path to R
binaries, ex: "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.9.1\bin"
you will need to reboot to see the effect of the changes
I use Windows XP, QGIS 1.3.0. "Mimas" and R 2.9.1. I also installed
Python, R packages rgdal and adehabitat and rpy2 as stated in the
install file of the HomeRange_plugin (I must admit I only have a vague
idea of what is Python and rpy2 are).
If I'm not wrong now there are other two dependencies, R packages
"shapefiles" and "gpclib". I believe you'll need R 2.10 to install the
gpclib library.
Using R 2.10 it will allow you to use other cool R based tools in qgis,
like the "manageR" and the "spatial data analisys for point pattern"
plugins.
However, in the QGIS Wiki page of HomeRange plugin, it is written
that "libraries MUST be installed with the OSGeo4W installer". Maybe
it is the source of my problem, because I have not use OSGeo4W to
install the previous items (in fact I still don't know how to use it
and I have so much to learn in the open source gis world). Does anyone
have an idea of what could be the problem?
This means that if you installed qgis (and consequently python) with the
osgeo4w installer, then you'll need to install the required python
modules with the same osgeo4w installer (you'll find them in the "libs"
section of the installer wizard).
It is my opinion that actually installing qgis with the osgeo4w
installer is better: easier to manage, to update (try qgis 1.4, it is a
major update since 1.3) and you have all what you need a few mouse
clicks away.
cheers

Apologies, it's a bug in the code. The control for rpy2 is weak, it
simply prints a message in the shell, that is not available on Windows,
and let the plugin load the interface independently of the check.
This error means that rpy2 is not installed - or not visible to QGIS.
You can further test in QGIS' Python shell typing
import rpy2.robjects as robjects
If rpy2 is missing, download it from SourceForge (be careful, rpy is not
suitable) and install it. If you have the standalone install, this way
is ok, if you use OSGeo4W, pick python-rpy2 package - if you install
rpy2 for system Python, it would be ignored by QGIS.
If the above test succeeds and HR plugin fails, please drop a mail with
more details about the whole installation.
Hope this helps!

Solved in 2.1.3, now available on the repository.
When QGIS is loading, and rpy2 is missing, HR_plugin raises a popup
window and prevents loading the plugin itself.
hope this helps!

Apologies, it's a bug in the code. The control for rpy2 is weak, it
simply prints a message in the shell, that is not available on Windows,

This error means that rpy2 is not installed - or not visible to QGIS.
