Hi. >From what you tell me you manage to start Matlab in the background by calling:
Matlab$startServer() but that R fails to connect to Matlab by: matlab <- Matlab(host="localhost", port=9998) if (!open(matlab)) throw("Matlab server is not running: waited 30 seconds.") Sorry for not being explicit enough; if no port is given, Matlab$startServer() will setup up Matlab to listen to port 9999 (as explained in the help), but then you try to communicate with it via port 9998. I realize that the example might be a bit confusing since it is using port 9998 (for the purpose of illustrating the fact that you can choose another port). Either try the above with Matlab$startServer(port=9998), *or*, maybe simpler: Matlab$startServer() matlab <- Matlab(host="localhost") if (!open(matlab)) throw("Matlab server is not running: waited 30 seconds.") Does this work for you? Henrik On 12/27/06, Bhanu Kalyan.K <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > library("R.matlab") > Loading required package: R.oo > R.oo v1.2.3 (2006-09-07) successfully loaded.
