[R-pkg-devel] Difference between local R CMD check and winbuilder

[BATES Timothy]

Different error report: but I’ve been getting an error reported from winbuilder, but no error/code failures revealed in the log…


Running examples in 'umx-Ex.R' failed
The error most likely occurred in:


…

[example code with no error showing in the code…]


Passes release checks fine on MacOS with R 4.0.0 So, hard to debug…

Best, tim

Hello,
My package passed the R CMD check locally on my desktop with Windows
system, but not the winbuilder.   These are both done on R-4.0.0.

Does this happen to anyone else?

 I'm new to R and this is my first R package.   Please help.   Much appreciated.
