Good morning, I have some problems installing RODBC to R in a linux cluster. My R version is: R version 2.12.0 (2010-10-15) Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)
I get the following error: > install.packages('RODBC') Installing package(s) into '/home/jorgehou/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.12' (as 'lib' is unspecified) trying URL 'http://stat.ethz.ch/CRAN/src/contrib/RODBC_1.3-2.tar.gz' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 1108358 bytes (1.1 Mb) opened URL ================================================== downloaded 1.1 Mb * installing *source* package 'RODBC' ... checking for gcc... gcc -std=gnu99 checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc -std=gnu99 accepts -g... yes checking for gcc -std=gnu99 option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -std=gnu99 -E checking for egrep... grep -E checking for ANSI C header files... yes checking for sys/types.h... yes checking for sys/stat.h... yes checking for stdlib.h... yes checking for string.h... yes checking for memory.h... yes checking for strings.h... yes checking for inttypes.h... yes checking for stdint.h... yes checking for unistd.h... yes checking sql.h usability... no checking sql.h presence... no checking for sql.h... no checking sqlext.h usability... no checking sqlext.h presence... no checking for sqlext.h... no configure: error: "ODBC headers sql.h and sqlext.h not found" ERROR: configuration failed for package 'RODBC' * removing '/home/jorgehou/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.12/RODBC' The downloaded packages are in '/tmp/Rtmpgb1Nxz/downloaded_packages' Warning message: In install.packages("RODBC") : installation of package 'RODBC' had non-zero exit status I found some info on it here: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Problem-installing-RODBC-td2016736.html but how should I use it??? (Yes, I am very novice to Linux (and R) so it might be a stupid question....) Thanks! Jørgen -- Jørgen Blystad Houge MSc Student Industrial Economics NTNU, Norway [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
