[R] R 2.6.0 & RMySQL

[Joachim Claudet]

Dear list members --

I have problems in loading the pre-compiled library RMySQL_0.5-7 taken 
here (http://stat.bell-labs.com/RS-DBI/download/index.html) or 
RMySQL_0.6-0 taken here 
(http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/2.5/) on R 2.6.0 
under Windows XP. I am using the MySQL features of EasyPHP1-8 (but the 
problem is not (for the moment) in connecting with a database but just 
in loading the package)
I have seen all the previous posts explaining to copy the libMySQL.dll & 
RMySQL.dll of the RMySQL library in the Windows/System32 folder or to 
change the path variable in the Environment Variables of the system but 
nothing helps.
I still have the following message (I am sorry but, unfortunately, it is 
in French; with my translation):

Error in dyn.load(file, ...) :
impossible de charger la bibliothèque partagée (="impossible to charge 
the shared library") 
'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-26~1.0/library/RMySQL/libs/RMySQL.dll':
LoadLibrary failure:  La procédure spécifiée est introuvable (="the 
specified procedure cannot be found").
Erreur : le chargement du package / espace de noms a échoué pour 
'RMySQL' (="loading package/space of names failed for")


I have just changed my computer and was previously on R 2.4, where I did 
not have any problems in installing and loading pre-compiled versions 
RMySQL.

Any help will be welcome.
