Hi Sarah, Although I haven't tested with 2.12.2, I know it works with at least 2.11.0. The error above is indicating that rpy is installed somewhere on python's path but the C-extension module for the version of R found on your $PATH (2.12.2) is not present. Most likely this is because rpy was already installed, and is being found earlier on python's path than the version of rpy that you installed. The older rpy was built against a different version of R. If you find the original installation of rpy you should be able to determine from _rpy<version>.so what version of R it was built against, and put that version of R ahead of 2.12.2 in your $PATH. Alternatively, you can find and uninstall the old version of rpy, which should allow your newer version to be found and used. python's path can be determined with: python -c 'import sys; print "\n".join( sys.path )' There is some effort underway in the community to rewrite rpy tools to use rpy2, but this work is not yet complete.
