Re: [R] Snow/Snowfall hangs on windows 7

Same problem as Anna here. Windows 7 64-bit. Running R 2.13.0. snow + snowfall installed. Testing: library(snow) library(snowfall) sfInit(parallel=TRUE, cpus=2, type="SOCK") Then R spins forever (yes, I disabled the Windows firewall). On the same box, tried the same on Ubuntu under Virtualbox

Re: [R] Snow/Snowfall hangs on windows 7

btw, I installed R.10.1 on the same box (Windows 7, 64bit, 4 cores). snow/snowfall work fine. here is my sessionInfo() R version 2.10.1 (2009-12-14) i386-pc-mingw32 locale: [1] LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252 [2] LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252 [3] LC_MONETARY=English_United St
