Howdy, I ran into a rather odd problem installing rpy on one computer (I have used it to great success on another). Every time I try and import rpy (in IDLE or command line) I get the message "Unable to determine R version from the registry. Trying another method." This is then followed by a usual python error message:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module> from rpy import * File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\rpy.py", line 53, in <module> RHOME = rpy_tools.get_R_HOME() File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\rpy_tools.py", line 58, in get_R_HOME raise RuntimeExecError("Couldn't execute the R interpreter.\n" NameError: global name 'RuntimeExecError' is not defined I've tried reintalling python (2.5.1), and R (first used 2.2.1(?), changed to 2.6.1 on reinstall), with no luck. The computer is older DELL laptop running windows XP. Any ideas on what might be going amiss, and what to do to fix it? Many thanks, -Hans Nesse ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.
