Dear all,

I had trouble in setting up WinBUGS on my Mac, and I'm seeking for some help
here.

I followed the instruction by Tom Palmer here:
http://www.ruudwetzels.com/MacBUGS/winbugsonmacosx.pdf

I installed Darwine 1.1.21, and downloaded WinBUGS14. However, when I
double-clicked the WinBUGS14.exe file, a black-box dialog window poped up,
and I got error message in the Wine log as follows:

fixme:keyboard:RegisterHotKey (0x10032,13,0x00000002,3): stub
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {0003000a-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
not registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {0003000a-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
not registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {0003000a-0000-0000-c000-
000000000046} could be created for context 0x3

So this is a "WinBUGS on Darwine" question that needs to be solved atfirst - pelase ask on a bugs/Darwine/Mac related mailing list. This isunrelated to R (and errors with R2WinBUGS on the ancient R versionreported below are coming from this first problem).

I googled this and saw some other people having the same problem, but I did
not find any useful answer to this. Then I tried to run the schools example in 
the
R2WinBUGS package as follows:


schools<- read.table ("schools.txt", header=TRUE)
  J<- nrow(schools)
   y<- schools$estimate
    sigma.y<- schools$sd
    data<- list ("J", "y", "sigma.y")
    inits<- function() {list (theta=rnorm(J,0,100), mu.theta=rnorm(1,0,100),
sigma.theta=runif(1,0,100))}
    parameters<- c("theta", "mu.theta", "sigma.theta")

    schools.sim<- bugs (data, inits, parameters, model.file="schoolsmodel.bug",
n.chains=3, n.iter=1000,
                bugs.directory="/Applications/WinBUGS14",
                WINE="/Applications/Darwine/Wine.bundle/Contents/bin/wine",
                
WINEPATH="/Applications/Darwine/Wine.bundle/Contents/bin/winepath",
                useWINE=TRUE,clearWD=FALSE)
                

It still did not work, and the same error message occurred, plus some error
message from R:

fixme:keyboard:RegisterHotKey (0x10058,13,0x00000002,3): stub
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {0003000a-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}

000000000046} could be created for context 0x3
Error in bugs.run(n.burnin, bugs.directory, WINE = WINE, useWINE = useWINE,  :
   Look at the log file and
try again with 'debug=TRUE' to figure out what went wrong within Bugs.
