Hi Diomidis, Dirk and everyone else,
Was this problem solved in the meantime? I have the same "Fatal error:
unable to open the base package" problem. I'm using RInside 0.2.4,
Rtools 2.13.0.1901, R 2.13.2 on 32-bit Windows 7. As far as I can tell,
there is no configuration error. I've installed everything from scratch
twice just to make sure I don't get that same error because of messing
something up.
R_HOME points to .."\R\R-2.13.2" which seems fine to me. I should also
mention that I personally need to integrate R with QT, but I tried
running both the QT example and the examples in the "standard" directory
and I get the same "unable to open the base package" error. I really
need to get this to work, so I would appreciate and
ideas/suggestions/comments from anyone.
Thank you,
Adrian Maries

| No path: Missing libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll
| Add $Rtools\mingGW\bin: Missing R.dll
| Add $R_HOME\bin: Missing R.dll
| Add $R_HOME\bin\i386: Crash
| Change i386 to X64: Application was unable to start correctly
|
| Include both $R_HOME\bin\i386 and $R_HOME\bin\X64 in the path: Crash
| Compile from source in $RSRC
| Add $RSRC\bin: Missing R.dll
| Append $RSRC\bin\i386: Crash
|
| Change to a directory where the binary package DLLs were copied: Crash
| Change to a directory where the compiled DLLs were copied: Crash
Yikes. Looks like we need to look more closely at the 64-bit case. I will
have to get myself access to a 64 bit windows machine with Rtools.
| Use $R_HOME\bin;$R_HOME\bin\i386 path and unset R_HOME: Fatal error:

That may be borderline / a configuration error as R needs R_HOME.
