Dear Luke and others, I have many R versions on my machine and want to start a particular one when snow builds its cluster. (The same version I start snow from.) It seems that everything is set up correctly in defaultClusterOptions:
> mget(ls(defaultClusterOptions), defaultClusterOptions) $homogeneous [1] TRUE $manual [1] FALSE $master nodename "maya.unil.ch" $outfile [1] "/dev/null" $port [1] 10187 $rhome R_HOME > sessionInfo() R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20) x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu locale: LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] snow_0.3-3 "/home/gabor/software/lib64/R" $rlibs R_LIBS "/usr/lib64/R/library:/usr/share/R/library" $rprog [1] "/home/gabor/software/lib64/R/bin/R" $rscript [1] "/home/gabor/software/lib64/R/bin/Rscript" $rshcmd [1] "ssh" $scriptdir [1] "/home/gabor/.R/library/snow" $snowlib [1] "/home/gabor/.R/library" $timeout [1] 31536000 $type [1] "MPI" $user user "gabor" $useRscript [1] TRUE but snow still starts a different version, the one in /usr/bin/R. Is this a bug? If not, how can I tell snow to start the same version, the one that is listed in defaultClusterOptions?
