Follow the posting guide.  One thing missing here is the 'at a 
minimum' information that asked for.

My guess is that the problem here is that with 32-bit R you need 
32-bit JAGS and you have 64-bit JAGS installed.  But this is only a 
guess because the information about the R you are running is missing.

Also, the posting guide suggested that you contact the maintainer 
first.
