I am running R 2.14.1 on a Windows XP (32 bit) system, and am trying to install the package 'Rmpi' to allow me to parallel process on all cores of a quad-core PC (and if that works well, I want to add extra slaves from a dual-core laptop). Rmpi appears to install OK (see below), but I am encountering the following error when I try and load the package:
> utils:::menuInstallLocal() package 'Rmpi' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked > library(Rmpi) Error in library(Rmpi) : package 'Rmpi' does not have a NAMESPACE and should be re-installed I have attempted to re-install Rmpi several times without success (both Rmpi 0.5-9 and 0.6-0 from local ZIP files). As suggested on the developer website for Rmpi (http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/yu/Rmpi/) I am using MPICH2 as my MPI implementation and I have followed the 'Rmpi for Windows' installation instructions detailed there, and MPICH2 appears to be running properly. Does anyone have an insight into the nature/cause of the namespace issue and how I can resolve it? I will be most grateful!
