Thank you for the look with fresh eyes Uwe. It was just the simple solution of opening a new command shell window. I thought I'd tried that along with the multiple reboots, but it must have been before I figured out the correct PATH settings.
And thanks for the CYGWIN reminder too. :) All the best, Steve -----Original Message----- From: Uwe Ligges [mailto:lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de] Sent: Friday, 18 May 2012 5:27 PM To: stephen.peder...@adelaide.edu.au Cc: r-devel@r-project.org Subject: Re: [Rd] Cannot Install Custom Package On Windows7 64-bit On 18.05.2012 08:55, Steve Pederson wrote: > Hi, > > > > After uninstalling Rtools 2.14.0, I have installed the latest version > of Rtools 2.15.0 which gives the two folders > > C:\Rtools\bin > > C:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3 > > > > R is installed in the directory > > C:\R\R-2.15.0 > > > > I have set the Environment Variable > > PATH=c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\bin;c:\R\R-2.15.0\bin;<others> > > > > I am trying to install a custom package (BMEA_0.2.1) which is exactly > as written& built successfully on R-2.14.0 > > > > When I use R CMD INSTALL BMEA_0.2.1.tar.gz, I get the following output > > * installing to library 'C:/R/R-2.15.0/library' > > * installing *source* package 'BMEA' ... > > ** libs > > cygwin warning: > > MS-DOS style path detected: C:/R/R-2.15.0/etc/x64/Makeconf > > Preferred POSIX equivalent is: > /cygdrive/c/R/R-2.15.0/etc/x64/Makeconf > > CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off > this warning 1.

So far your PATH look good, but it may be messed up later on, hence tell us what echo %PATH% returns and be sure you started a new Windows command shell after changing the PATH environment variable.
