Dear R users,
Basically, I desire to extract more than 1 column from a table in MySQL database. However, I get a pop-up error reading *"R for Windows GUI front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the incovenience."* when there are more than 1 field following "SELECT" phrase in the "dbSendQuery" function. Scripts below was used, *library(DBI) library(RMySQL)* * * *con <- dbConnect(MySQL(), user="XXX", password="XXX", dbname="XXX", host="XXX")* * * *foo <- dbSendQuery(con, "SELECT pol, claims FROM GI.marine ORDER BY pol" ) * *GI <- fetch(foo,n = -1)* When I specify only 1 field (i.e *foo <- dbSendQuery(con, "SELECT pol FROM GI.marine ORDER BY pol"* ), it gives the desired query result without any error. Your advise on resolving this issue would be highly appreciated.
