[R-sig-Geo] plotKML throws status 37 warning

Thu Apr 23 07:10:39 CEST 2015

Hi Jake

My guess is that you don't have any file association on files with extension kml. 

I had the same problem on my old laptop with the same error message but on my new laptop your example works. With the old laptop I just lived with it. But since it works on my new laptop I checked my hunch  that the problem is probably due to missing file association and that turned out to be true.

Find the kml your script produced with your favourite file manager and right click on that, choose file properties and see which program is set to open kml files. On my old laptop it said unknown application whereas on my new laptop it said Google Earth.

Hope that helps.

I am having trouble running the example code provided in the plotKML help file.  The example is as follows:

library(sp)
library(rgdal)
data(eberg)
coordinates(eberg) <- ~X+Y
proj4string(eberg) <- CRS("+init=epsg:31467")
## subset to 20 percent:
eberg <- eberg[runif(nrow(eberg))<.1,]
## Not run: ## bubble type plot:
plotKML(eberg["CLYMHT_A"])

Here is what happens when I run the code:

> plotKML(eberg["CLYMHT_A"])

Plotting the first variable on the list

KML file opened for writing...

Reprojecting to +proj=longlat +datum=WGS84 ...

Writing to KML...

Closing  eberg__CLYMHT_A__.kml

access to 'C:\Users\jbeaulie\DOCUME~1\PLOTKM~1\EBERG_~1.KML' denied

Warning message:

running command 'open C:\Users\jbeaulie\DOCUME~1\PLOTKM~1\EBERG_~1.KML' had status 37

The kml file is written to the specified directory, but apparently R can't open the file from there.  Any thoughts?  Session info below.
