R-help, I recently updated R from 2.13.0 to 2.13.1 (32-bit Windows version) and
now have a problem updating packages. I am running Windows 7 as operating
system. As the FAQ suggests, I uninstalled 2.13.0 before installing 2.13.1.
On first opening R, I ran "update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE, ask=FALSE) ras also
recommended and selected the NS Cran mirror. On doing this the following error
messages occurs: update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE, ask=FALSE)
--- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session ---
Warning in install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, contriburl =
contriburl, :
'lib = "C:/Program Files/R/R-2.13.1/library"' is not writable
Error in install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, contriburl =
contriburl, :
unable to install packages Any suggestions as to how to correct this
problem would be appreciated. Thanks. Regards,Deelman
