I don't think there is any problem with r.R. The problem appears to be in one of the commands that is contained in it, where it tries to open data/pathtofile/041006 but that file does not appear to exist. My guess is that the data directory lies below your home directory, but your working directory is /home/fred/R so it is looking for it in the wrong place.
