Executing "R CMD BATCH" in the shell produces nothing on my system (ubuntu with R including its development packages). Asking for the exit code of the command with "echo $?" I get "1" meaning failure. Do I need to have SAGA to run R-Scripts via SEXTANTE? cheers, robert ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

I get "1" meaning failure. I guess that this trick was not a good one to test if R is intalled, since I expected the output to be the same in linux and windows (my fault for not checking it). Maybe R --version is a best one. > > Do I need to have SAGA to run R-Scripts via SEXTANTE?

Re: [Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA
One of the main and nicest characteristics of QGIS is that the core keeps a relatively small (although not that small any more) number of functions that are stable and then the plugins provide a cloud of many (ever growing) tools that are being continuously developed. This could have been a nightmare for users but it's actually close to heaven because upgrading these tools is so fast and easy that actually makes QGIS and excellent arena for the interaction of developers and users. No other GIS software provides such an environment. Therefore, I'm concerned any time important improvements or fixes are relegated "to svn", as this is out of the reach of the regular user. Users do not even know what svn is. If Sextante is going to become an important part of the geoprocessing with qgis, keeping the traditional simplicity and immediateness of installing fixes of qgis plugins should be an important goal. If no other alternative is possible (I hope this is not the case) , maybe all users should learn few svn commands, but in such a case those commands should be in the User's Manual. Many thanks for the new version that you announce.

Re: [Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA
Agustin, They are inmediatly available in the SVN version, but not in a new release, at least not until I manually create one and upload it. This task could be automated, but currently it is not. I will try to have a new version today, since there are already a few interesting changes Regarding R, SEXTANTE makes a very easy test to see if it is installed, just trying to execute it with the "CMD BATCH" argument without a batch file and checking the output it gets. It shoud be something like "no input file". Could you try that on your command line and tell me what you get?

Re: [Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA
Victor, yes, I'm using ubuntu 10.04 as mentioned. And R works. What do regular users have to do in order to get the SVN version? compiling? If this is a python plugin (SEXTANTE Geoprocessing platform for QGIS), should not the bug fixes be immediately available to users by installing the new version of the plugin?

Re: [Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA
Agustin That is a typo that is already corrected in the SVN version. It really means that R is not installed (or at least, SEXTANTE cannot find it). You should make sure that R is available (opening a console and typing "r" should work, with no need of additional settings) i assume that you are using linux, right?

[Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA
Whenever I try to use one of the R scripts included as example scripts in the SEXTANTE version of QGIS, I get: It seems that SAGA is not correctly installed in your system. Please install it before running SAGA algorithms. Do I really need SAGA for these scripts or is this an error of the checking? In any case, I do have SAGA 2.0.7 Using SEXTANTE v1.0.4 for QGIS 1.7.4 on Ubuntu 10.04 Thanks, Agus ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
