Error in generating sweave-tex -> pdf file

When I copied Sweave.sty in the directory where I ran R, I didn't have any
error. But this is not the good solution as R can be run in any folder.

I copied Sweave.sty in  /usr/share/texmf/. I put my Rnw file in inst/doc folder
in my R package to create the vignette. I ran R CMD check and it doesn find
texi2dvi.

Should the Sweave package be in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/? How about
Sweave.sty?

I meant Sweave.sty, there's no separate Sweave package.  It should be in
the R home directory, somewhere within share/texmf.

Thanks

  Hi,
  I created a Sweave file (see below). when I want to convert tex
  file generated from it into pdf, I get error message as follows:

  >    texi2dvi("test.tex", pdf=TRUE)

  Error in texi2dvi("test.tex", pdf = TRUE) :
     Running 'texi2dvi' on 'test.tex' failed.
  LaTeX errors:
  ! Undefined control sequence.
  l.8 \begin
             {Schunk}

The Schunk, Sinput, and Soutput environments are defined in Sweave package.
Something went wrong and latex didn't find them, either because it didn't find
Sweave.sty, or because it did, but that file has been messed up.

  ! Interruption.

  The control sequence at the end of the top line

  ------------------------
  test.Rnw

  \usepackage{Sweave}
  \ documentclass [ a4paper ]{ article }
  \ title { Sweave Example 1}
  \ begin { document }
  \ maketitle

Are there really spaces between the backslashes and the macros?  I think that
doesn't work.  You should also have the \usepackage{Sweave} line after the
opening \documentclass line.

  In this example we embed parts of the examples from the
  help page into a \ LaTeX {} document :
  <<a>>=
  y=2
  y = y +1
  @
  which shows that the location parameter of the Ozone
  distribution varies significantly from month to month . Finally we
  include a boxplot of the data :

  \end{ document }
