Hi, On a Win7 64 bit, I have installed: *R-15.0 and I am running it in 64bits *Rtools215.exe*MySQL 5.5.23 64bits
My PATH start with D:\BenSave\Rtools\bin;D:\BenSave\Rtools\MinGW64\bin;D:\BenSave\R\R-2.15.0\bin;D:\BenSave\Rtools\MinGW\bin;D:\BenSave\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\bin; Note that I place MinGW64\bin has I want the package in 64 bits, so just in case it helps... To install RMySQL 64 bits, I then followed the steps described in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4785933/adding-rmysql-package-to-r-fails, namely: 1. Install latest RTools from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/ 2. install MySQL or header and library files of mysql 3. create or edit file C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15\etc\Renviron.site and add line like MYSQL_HOME=C:/mysql (path to your mysql files) 4. copy libmysql.lib from mysql/lib to mysql/lib/opt to meet dependencies. 5. copy libmysql.dll to C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15\bin directory. 6. run install.packages('RMySQL',type='source') and wait while compilation will end. > install.packages('RMySQL', type = 'source') --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- trying URL 'http://cran.ma.imperial.ac.uk/src/contrib/RMySQL_0.9-3.tar.gz' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 165363 bytes (161 Kb) opened URL downloaded 161 Kb * installing *source* package 'RMySQL' ... ** package 'RMySQL' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked checking for $MYSQL_HOME...

I did so but no luck. I am not sure what I am missing. Does anyone have a suggestion? Regards, Ben [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
