Hello
I'm trying to read an Excel-File with the read.xls function from gdata
(Version 2.7.1) on Mac with OS X 10.6.3, but get the following error
message:
Can't load
'/Users/.../Library/R/2.10/library/gdata/perl/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Compress/Raw/Zlib/Zlib.bundle'
for module Compress::Raw::Zlib:
/Users/.../Library/R/2.10/library/gdata/perl/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Compress/Raw/Zlib/Zlib.bundle:
no appropriate 64-bit architecture (see "man perl" for running in 32-bit
mode) at
/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/DynaLoader.pm line
207.
at /Users/.../Library/R/2.10/library/gdata/perl/Archive/Zip.pm line 12
Compilation failed in require at
/Users/.../Library/R/2.10/library/gdata/perl/Archive/Zip.pm line 12.
I did not have this problem on a Mac with OX X 10.5.8. It seems that perl
must be running in 32bit mode, but is running in 64bit mode by default on my
system. The same problem has been discussed on R mailing list, but nobody
has provided a solution as far as I can see:
http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/gdata-td1477079.html
I tried to change the default perl to version 5.8 by following the
instructions under "man perl" but still get the same error message. Can
anybody help me out?
Regards,
Erich
