Hi, I downloaded a package with .gz extension, which presumably works for Unix, when I installed it directly on windows, it has the error msg: Error in gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning messages: 1: In unzip(zipname, exdir = dest) : error 1 in extracting from zip file 2: In gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open compressed file 'CustomCDF_1.1.0.tar.gz/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory' Does anyone know how to convert the package into a windows installable zip file?
Please see the "R Installation and Administration" manual in order to learn how to install source packages (such as the tar.gz file you got) under Windows.
Best, Uwe Ligges
