Dear all, I'm having a slight issue with R2WinBugs.... it cannot detect where WinBUGS is located. Q: How can I change the default path?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Regards Erica I'm using R2WinBUGs (R version 2.21.1) on windows platform (Windows 7). I have downloaded WinBUGS14.exe and patch 1.4.3. As i'm working with Windows 7 (similiar issues to Vista occur), thus I have followed the instructions given on BUGS site: >Note: There appears to be a problem with installing WinBUGS and/or various >patches in Windows Vista. Vista doesn't seem to like anyone overwriting files >in the >"C:\Program Files" directory (regardless of permissions). Hence we >recommend that WinBUGS be installed elsewhere The location of I placed WinBUGS is on the D-drive: "D:\WinBUGS14" The error I receive in R is: Error in file(con, "rb") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In file(con, "rb") : cannot open file 'c:/Program Files/WinBUGS14//System/Rsrc/Registry.odc': No such file or directory Error in bugs.run(n.burnin, bugs.directory, WINE = WINE, useWINE = useWINE, : WinBUGS executable does not exist in c:/Program Files/WinBUGS14/ > ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
