[R] FW: ROracle error

[David James]

Hello Vikram,

(I did respond to you yesterday's email from vkhurana at noaa.gov, but 
apparantly noaa.gov doesn't recognize your handle vkhurana.)

Apparently you don't have the Oracle ProC/C++ precomplier "proc"
in your $PATH.  You need to include $ORACLE_HOME/bin in your $PATH,
and probably $ORACLE_HOME/lib in your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  See the
files INSTALL, README, and README.client in the source distribution
(they'll be in the "inst" directory under "ROracle" after you untar
the source file ROracle_0.3-3.tar.gz).

Regards,
--
David
