en_US.utf8 doesn’t exist on OS X - the corresponding locale name there is en_US.UTF-8 You may want to set R_ENCODING_LOCALES to the values that are supported by your OS, this is what I’m using on the CRAN machine: R_ENCODING_LOCALES="latin1=en_US.ISO8859-1:latin2=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2:UTF-8=en_US.UTF-8" Cheers, Simon > Below is the output of sessionInfo(). > > Thanks & cheers, > Marius > > > sessionInfo() > R version 3.2.0 (2015-04-16) > Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin14.3.0 (64-bit) > Running under: OS X 10.10.3 (Yosemite) > > locale: > [1] C > > attached base packages: > [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base > > loaded via a namespace (and not attached): > [1] compiler_3.2.0 tools_3.2.0 >> > > _______________________________________________ > R-SIG-Mac mailing list > [email protected] > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac > _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
