Question

I am having some difficulties installing jri using cygwin in Windows 7 64 bit
I have set R_HOME to “C:\Program Files\R\R-2.14.0”
I have also set PATH to “C:\cygwin\home\USER\rJava\jri\;C:\Program Files\R\R-2.14.0\bin\”

and I get the following error:

$ sh configure.win
Generate Windows-specific files (src/jvm-w32) ...
make: Entering directory `/home/USER/rJava/jri/src/win32'
Makefile:4: C:\Program: No such file or directory
Makefile:4: Files\R\R-2.14.0/etc/Makeconf: No such file or directory
make: C:Program: Command not found
make: *** No rule to make target `Files\R\R-2.14.0/etc/Makeconf'.  Stop.
make: Leaving directory `/home/USER/rJava/jri/src/win32'

I am running the command sh configure.win from the “C:\cygwin\home\USER\rJava\jri” directory.
Any ideas what am I missing?
Thanks

I don’t think we support cygwin. Please use the Rtools from http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/
