R MYSQL INSTALLATION
Hi Sayan, I recently found a solution to the RMySQL compiling problem. You however there is one additional requirement at present (with the MySQL server version 5.5 & R2.12.1) follow the http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/wiki/Main/RMySQL instructions at present as the locations of the libmySQL.dll differs to what is expected in the package. i.e. for the 64bit compiling. it expects the libmySQL.dll to be in "${MYSQL_HOME}"/bin/libmySQL.dll so simply copy the dll over to the /bin dir and it will now compile.
