Hi All,

I am trying to install the package rjags into a local library on a
machine for which I do not have root permissions.

Using the command: R CMD INSTALL
--configure-args="--with-jags-include=${JAGSBIN}/include/JAGS
--with-jags-lib=${JAGSBIN}/lib/
--with-jags-modules=${JAGSBIN}/lib/JAGS/modules" CMD INSTALL -l
${JAGSBIN}/lib/ ../rjags_1.0.3-12.tar.gz

Where ${JAGSBIN} is defined as a local directory, the installation
seems
to be working fine. Then, I go into R and type the following
commands:

.libPaths("${JAGSBIN}/lib/")

Maybe this :

.libPaths( file.path( Sys.getenv("JAGSBIN", "lib" ) ) )

Unlikely - it's probably just a matter of setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH
correctly .. not really an R issue at all ...

Cheers,
S

library("rjags")

I get the following error

Loading required package: coda
Loading required package: lattice
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
unable to load shared library '${JAGSBIN}/lib/rjags/libs/rjags.so':
libjags.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'rjags'
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'rjags'

Ideally, I would fix this problem by adding the appropriate
libraries to
/user/local/lib64 . However, since I do not have root permissions I
am
not able to make this addition. How can I have R recognize c++
libraries
from my local path?

Thanks so much in advance for your help.
