I have a similar problem with R 1.0.0 (Windows 98) in loading 3 packages -
ctest, chron, lme. Every other package loads fine. I can live without
chron, but ctest and lme are very important to me. Reinstallation of R
doesn't help. I can't figure out what the problem. Has anybody else had
this problem in Windows? Any suggestions appreciated. TIA.

PS: I did report this Prof. Ripley and also, Prof. Lumley had replied to me
before saying the problem does not occur on NT.

The error message is the same as below (except -dll instead of sl)
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
        unable to load shared library "C:
\R\RW1000/library/chron/libs/chron.dll":
  LoadLibrary failure

Hello,
I just pulled the patched release:
R-release Version 1.0.0 Patched (March 19, 2000), on HPUX10.2

I am having dynamic library load problems. I configured with:
./configure  --prefix=/home/absd00t/local --with-readline --with-x

After changing etc/Makeconf to take -lblas out of libs (the blas
library provided by the system is not a shared library), system was
built without any interruptions. But when I do
library(modreg)
I get :
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
        unable to load shared library
"/home/absd00t/local/lib/R/library/modreg/libs/modreg.sl":
  can't open /home/absd00t/local/lib/R/library/modreg/libs/modreg.sl

The file is there (installed by R), and has the right permissions. nm
works on it and the system thinks it is a shared library. What could
be wrong??

Last one I built, 0.90, was working OK. But now it is overwritten :-)

Thanks in advance,
Osman
