Unfortunately, I haven’t had much time recently to update or work on
manageR, but I’m hoping that will change in the next few months…
Having said that, there are quite a few people out there that have been
having trouble installing manageR (and the required rpy2) on their
system to get things working at all! I have had some individuals provide
possible fixes and suggestions on how to get things working properly on
various platforms, and I’m going to use this post to amalgamate them,
and hopefully create a one stop post for all your rpy2 and manageR
needs. I’m also hoping that people will post potential fixes in the
comments to help others with more specific problems?
For now, I have the following potential fix for OSX (Lion 10.7.2 at least):
- Update
Rto latest version (binary from r-project.org); - Reinstall
QGIS(Kyngchaos installer); - Reinstall
GDAL_complete(Kyngchaos again); - Reinstall
rpy2(latter via pip) - Reboot…
Apparently the (potential) problem is actually related to previous R
builds, where symlinks were referring to the wrong location. This
potential fix is courtesy of this Stackexchange thread
Ok, so does anyone else have some suggestions to get things working on Windows? Perhaps someone out there has a Windows build they’d like to share? As far as I know (i.e., it works for me), things are working fine on Linux, but if someone else has a different experience, please share in the comments.
