a colleague of mine tried to upgrade to the new windows bundle -- but failed. 
the only thing he gets is a no such file or directory error, while it 
remains unclear which file/directory is in question.

he had RKWard installed before and it worked fine. we tried to remove the 
.rkward folder as well as all other folders related to the previous 
installation, re-installed and rebooted several times, but to no avail.

ideas?

 ideas?

- Any chance he was using existing icons / shortcuts / link from a previous 
install (and now pointing into the void)? Try starting from
  c:\path\to\installed\bundle\KDE\bin\rkward.exe

- Start from the command line using rkward.exe --debug-level 4. This should 
print a bit more info.

- Try to specify the location of R, explicitly:
  rkward.exe --debug-level 4 --r-executable C:\RKWARDbundle\R\bin\i386\R.exe
(or whereever R is at).

- Does any window show up, at all? Is that literally the whole error message?

- While this _should_ not be a problem, any longer, the safest installation 
path has no spaces in any folder name, and all parts of the folder name are 8 
characters or less.

- If all else fails, you could try using the custom installer. This can simply 
be pointed to KDE and R in the bundle.

Thomas

2014-10-07 Thread Thomas Friedrichsmeier
Hi again,

never mind my previous mail. I figured out what's wrong. (When updating the 
bundle to test2, I forgot to adjust the path to R to be relative, and thus the 
bundle cannot be moved to a different path). Will upload a new bundle, in a 
minute.

It should still work to simply run the custom installer on top of the bundle, 
or specify --r-executable on the command line.

Regards
Thomas

hi,

that helped. it turned out the installer set completely wrong paths, namely to 
a non-existent drive K:

we had already found that for the .lnk file to rkward.exe, but the debug 
messages showed us that rkward.ini also looked for R on drive K:

 - Does any window show up, at all? Is that literally the whole error
 message?

yes, it was the whole message. i started R in cmd.exe then, this is what was 
returned:

snip
c:\RKWardRKWard.exe.lnk
Debug: path of the process dbus-daemon seems to be outside of the 
installPath: C:/Program Files/RKWard/KDE/bin C:/RKWard/KDE/
Debug: path of the process klauncher seems to be outside of the 
installPath:
C:/Program Files/RKWard/KDE/bin C:/RKWard/KDE/
Debug: path of the process kded4 seems to be outside of the installPath: 
C:/Program Files/RKWard/KDE/bin C:/RKWard/KDE/
/snip

and by the way, i now see why windows users tend to send screenshots instead 
of text like above: microsoft successfully managed to make copypaste from 
that console like impossible, select all was the only thing that worked and 
we had to strip the whole history. adding to that, magically translating 
folder names seems like a terrible feature; C:/Program Files/ is shown as 
C:/Programme/ in german, but using that path in cmd.exe caused really 
strange errors.

so in essence, the problem was wrong paths. the installer did not use the 
installation path selected at the beginning of the process.

Yes, see my other mail: My bad. Fix is being uploaded.

Huh? I wonder what this is about. _Is_ there a dbus-daemon.exe at C:/Program 
Files/RKWard/KDE/bin? Is it on the PATH? Any symptoms besides this message? 
Esp. do help windows / output window work?

 and by the way, i now see why windows users tend to send screenshots instead
 of text like above: microsoft successfully managed to make copypaste from
 that console like impossible, select all was the only thing that worked
 and we had to strip the whole history.

Yes. Astonishing is about the only word I can find for that.
