I have tried installing R on a web server on which I have a user account but not root access.
I checked and the PERL, Fortran, etc. prerequisites all seem in order. The compiling of R with: % ./configure --with-x=no This works fine without errors. I try a "make check", however, and soon get an error as it cannot find files which should have been made. Most of the files seem to have come through though. ... collecting examples for package 'base' ... make[5]: Entering directory `/home/USERACCOUNT/mybin/R-2.8.0/src/library' /bin/sh: ../../bin/R: No such file or directory make[5]: *** [Rdfiles] Error 127 make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/USERACCOUNT/mybin/R-2.8.0/src/library' file ../../library/base/R-ex cannot be opened at ../../share/perl/massage-Examples.pl line 136. ... Is there any advice on what might be happening or on what I might need to do?
