R CMD build (lower case) indeed works. I was confused with older versions of Rtools where it didn't matter if you used lower or upper case (as well as that I thought under DOS
Actually, we are using the Windows command shell rather than any DOS.
upper and lower cases don't make a difference).
Nowadays "build" is internal to R and no longer a filename. And since R is case sensitive.....
Best, Uwe
I was wrong however.

R CMD build (build all lower case) does work for me Uwe Ligges On 09.08.2010 22:30, Hintzen, Niels wrote:Dear all, As I couldn't find any thread on the internet I hope the help-list might help me out. I've tried to update Rtools from R210 used in combination with R2.9.1 to R211 in combination with R2.11.1. However, I do not succeed. I have R2.11.1 running, as well as Inno Setup 5, HTML help and MikTex. A version of Perl is installed too. Environment variable paths are set to link to these directories too. However, when I try to build a library using: R CMD BUILD mypackage it immediately crashes as apparently it cannot find the file 'build' in R-2.11.1/bin. Indeed, this file is not present there (only build.pl) while this file is present in the R-2.9.1/bin directory. What obvious thing am I doing wrong. Your help is much appreciated.
