I suspect you have a file permission problem, and noticed filehash has
some bugs which would mask this. E.g. it does
createDB1 <- function(dbName) {
if(!hasWorkingFtell())
stop("need working 'ftell()' to use 'DB1' format")
if(!file.exists(dbName))
file.create(dbName)
else
message(gettextf("database '%s' already exists", dbName))
TRUE
}
and so fails to check that file.create succeeded, and calls message()
on an already translated message without 'domain=NA'. (It also calls
dir.create without checking the result.)
As far as I can see filehash will try to create a file in the current
working directory. Did you set up the shortcut as dscribed in the rw-FAQ
so that the working directory was owned by you?
