Uwe, Thank you for the suggestion. I checked and there are no dependencies involved. I discovered the problem is calling an old version
c:\projects\hell>which Rscript which Rscript /cygdrive/c/Program Files/R/R-2.12.1/bin/Rscript Mypack is installed under 2.15. Will change my paths and that should fix it. Would be nice if Rscript produced a message saying it could not find the lib. It returns nothing so it looks like the load worked, while it did not: c:\projects\hell>R --vanilla R --vanilla R version 2.12.1 (2010-12-16) Copyright (C) 2010 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing ISBN 3-900051-07-0 Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit) > library(RODBC) library(RODBC) Warning message: package 'RODBC' was built under R version 2.12.2 > library(mypack) library(mypack) > normalize normalize Error: object 'normalize' not found Execution halted Stephen -----Original Message----- From: Uwe Ligges [mailto:lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de] Sent: Friday, December 21, 2012 1:01 PM To: Bond, Stephen Cc: r-help@r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] Rterm does not load personal library On 21.12.2012 18:16, Bond, Stephen wrote: > Greetings, > > I am trying to run a short script from a shell: > > c:\projects\hell>Rscript --default-packages=mypack X:/4Stephen/commit/curve.R > > X:/4Stephen/commit/run1.out > > Loading required package: utils > Warning message: > package 'RODBC' was built under R version 2.12.2 > Error: could not find function "normalize" > Execution halted > Warning message: > closing unused RODBC handle 1 > > function 'normalize' is in "mypack" and I even attempt to load it from inside > the script: > > ## curve.R > dt <- Sys.Date() > library(RODBC) > pipe <- odbcConnect("commit") > library(mypack) # with quotes it's the same result > normalize(pipe) > > any ideas how to make Rterm load the library?? Running from inside ESS works > fine. Also from RGui. It does not work if I start a session by "R -vanilla" > on the command line. I guess some dependencies on other base R packages are not declared and those packages are not loaded by your package. If you start RGui some packages are loaded that are not loaded if you start via --vanilla, but we cannot know more without information about mypack.
