Thanks. I do not understand item 2, what do you mean by add R's bin directory to path? While directly use to c:\temp and type the commands, it says 'R' is not recognized as an internal or external command. While I use previous approach by going into the bin directory and type R CMD INSTALL "c:/temp/Rcplex", it told me that configuration failed for package 'Rcplex'

When it fails, I'd try to find out if the ERROR message is helpful. 4. If 3 fails, I'd ask the maintainer for help - including relevant information, like the error message, install paths, version information etc. Uwe Ligges > I got the error of configuration failed for package "Rcplex" > > Any idea? > > > > > ________________________________ > From: Uwe Ligges<lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de> > Cc: David Winsemius<dwinsem...@comcast.net>; > "r-help@r-project.org"<r-help@r-project.org> > Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2012 4:04 AM > Subject: Re: [R] installing the package Rcplex > > > > On 22.02.2012 03:33, zheng wei wrote: >> Thanks. >> >> I was just reminded by the tech support in my university that cplex is an >> independent software owned by ILOG, which in turn is now owned by IBM.
