[R] Sweave error in example code

2006-07-31 Thread LL 
Hi.. I am running R version 2.3.1 on a Windows XP machine with the latest 
Miktex 2.5 installed. I get no errors from R when running the Sweave example, 

testfile - system.file(Sweave, Sweave-test-1.Rnw, package = utils)

However, when I tex the resulting .tex file (after installing a4.sty) I get the 
error below. 

This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.6-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.5 RC 1)

This works for me. However, when I ran this, MiKTeX prompted me to 
install the ntgclass package, which I did. Everything ran smoothly after 
that. I'm using R-2.3.1 with MiKTeX 2.4 in WinXP Pro.

HTH,

But he is using MiKTeX 2.5: looks like a problem with MiKTeX, as the latex 
error is in the initial processing.
