problem with installing a package

I do have full access to that directory. I have the
bbHist package in c:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2011/library/bbHist
directory. Then under the library directory I did
check and build. Here's what I got:

$ R CMD check bbHist
* checking for working latex ... OK
* using log directory
'c:/progra~1/r/rw2011/library/bbHist.Rcheck'
* using R version 2.1.1, 2005-06-20
* checking for file 'bbHist/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
* this is package 'bbHist' version '0.1-1'
* checking if this is a source package ... WARNING
Subdirectory 'bbHist/src' contains object files.

And then when I do R CMD INSTALL bbHist, I get 

open(c:/progra~1/r/rw2011/library/bbHist/DESCRIPTION):
No such file or directory


The bbHist directory is removed and a 00LOCK directory
is created. What I don't understand is if INSTALL
removed the bbHist directory, why is it stilling
looking for the DESCRIPTION file in that diretory? I'm
really puzzled. If anyone has any idea, please let me
know. Thanks.

I've used R CMD check to check it. Everything

seems OK

except the latex. I get the error message:

I ignored it because I didn't want to submit it to
CRAN.

Then I tried to use R CMD INSTALL to install it.

First

I get: 
"mv: cannot move

`c:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2011/library/bbHist'

to `c:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2011/library/00LOCK/bbHist
': Permission denied" 

and a bunch of making DLL errors.  Then when I

tried a

second time, I get:

open(c:/progra~1/r/rw2011/library/bbHist/DESCRIPTION):

No such file or directory

I can see a 00LOCK directory is created in the
c:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2011/library directory. Any idea

why

this is happening?

No, information is still too sparse, unfortunately.
Do you have full write access?
The 00LOCK directory is used to save the older
package in order to be 
able to restore it if a new installtion fails.
Something went wrong and you have to remove it
manually now, I guess.

Thanks.
