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?

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.

No, they are independent (although you can combine them in SEXTANTE,
which is one of the most interesting things about it :-)) )

no worries, Agus. sextante will be included in qgis, no additional
install necessary.
you'r watching at a very early preview, just added (it became part of
the qgis family in the recent Lyon hackfest), so for now you have the
choice of waiting, or learning how do deal with development tools
(extremely simple, BTW).
All the best.

Re: [Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA

2012-05-07 Thread Agustin Lobo
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.

Agus

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?

Thanks!

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?
Thanks

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?

Victor

[Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA

2012-05-07 Thread Agustin Lobo
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
