I can install and run R 3.4.4 on Windows XP (32bit). However, calling "Update Packages..." or "Html help" from the RGui.exe main menu fails with a Windows MessageBox saying:
"The procedure entry point IdnToAscii could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll" and the following text printed to the RGui console window: "... In addition: Warning message: In download.file(url, destfile = f, quiet = TRUE) : unable to load shared object 'C:/R/R-3.4.4/modules/i386/internet.dll': LoadLibrary failure: The specified procedure could not be found." "IdnToAscii" is exported from "C:\WINDOWS\system32\normaliz.dll" on Windows XP. But apparently RGui cannot locate this procedure on Windows XP. Any advice? (except for "switch to a more recent windows version") Thanks a lot, --Holger ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
