"R" does indicate that the "symbol" to be used is independent from that
actual duration, but you still have to supply the length of it. I know
that may be somewhat confusing.
If you don't specify a duration for the first note LilyPond will
implicitly use a quarter note (i.e. "c" will be treated as "c4", so in
your example LilyPond thinks you meant "R4" and complains at the barcheck.
You have to write "R1" in your example (and of course consider that the
next note/rest you enter will be considered having length "1" if you
don't specify otherwise.

Barcheck problems in extremely simple file Another newbie alert!
I'm getting barcheck problems when putting in full bar rests and can't
work out why. The file's very simple:
\version "2.16.2" % necessary for upgrading to future LilyPond versions.
\language "english"
<<
\new Staff
{ \clef "treble" \key f \minor \time 4/4 \relative c''
{ R |
}
}

But I get a load of errors:
