help with nprmpi
3 messages · Ouattara, Patrick Connolly
Quoting Ouattara <B.Ouattara at swansea.ac.uk>:
Dear I have been trying to a program which requires "nprmpi". However, I have tried to install the downloaded zip file but get the error: "cannot open compressed file 'npRmpi_0.40-7.tar.gz/DESCRIPTION'"
Since you didn't tell us any basic information, we have to guess what your OS and other details are. My guess that you're trying to use a file which Windows can't deal with.
I tried the command: install.packages("nprmpi") but get the message "package
'nprmpi' is not available"
That would be consistent with using Windows. On the CRAN site, the information relating to the mprmpi package has this to say: Windows binary: not available, see ReadMe. HTH
I then tried version 2.13 of R (as I am still using version 2.12) but still get error message. I was wondering if somebody has managed to install it and can kindly assist, please. Many thanks and sorry for taking your time. Best wishes, os [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
