Hello,
This tread helped me to finally move somewhere with rgraphviz installation.
But it seems there is a problem with vignette creation.   I have the same
configuration as Ben (Win7 -64bit,R-2.13.0, Rtools version
2.13.0.1901,graphviz from goodies) and did the changes suggested by Martin.
The package version is Rgraphviz_1.30.1.tar.gz.
Is there some solution? Thank you.

From the error message, it looks as though this isn't really anything to do with Rgraphviz, it's your tex installation that isn't working. However, that might be misleading: there was a bug in 2.13.0 that made system() sometimes fail. The current R-patched should fix that.

So I'd check that pdflatex works as a command with the path you're using. If not, install MikTeX or some other tex version. If so, then it's probably a problem in R: so install R-patched.

If neither of those suggestions work, then I guess you'll have to do some debugging on your own...
