Hello all,
I just tried to install the RELIMP-R-package on my laptop (running Windows 7 Ultimate, SPSS 19.0.0.1, R 2.10.1), but after clicking on the Utilities > Extension Bundles > Install Extension Bundle on the STATS_RELIMP.SPE- file, I get an IBM SPSS message: Failed to install the following required R packages: <empty line> Please see help Any idea what goes wrong?

1) Have you installed the R Essentials
for 19.0.1 in addition to R itself?
2) Sometimes the package installer is unable to contact the CRAN site to download required packages. But you can do this manually if the problem persists. Start R, go to Packages > Install Packages. Select a site, and then choose the package relaimpo.

This should also work (at least within R):
require("relaimpo") || install.packages("relaimpo", dependencies=TRUE)
Not sure what happens when you run this within spss. The screen for the selection of the download mirror might not show up properly.

The R download dialogs should show up properly
within Statistics. However, if the problem is due to inability to
access the R site, e.g., because of firewall settings, that attempt will
still fail. (Sometimes I find a firewall permission alert buried
behind ten other windows.) We used to include the required R packages
in the spe files, but we can no longer do that, sorry to say.

Hi Jon, Thanks for your feedback.
I tried to install the R Essentials for 19.0.1 (SPSS_Statistics_REssentials_19001_win32.exe)
but this led to an error (that R 2.10 was missing although it is installed on
my system). So after this, I reinstalled the older SPSS_Statistics_REssentials_19_win32.exe.
Then I followed your 2nd suggestion, to install the relaimpo-package manually. And
when I installed the extension bundle (overwriting previous efforts) it seemed
to end without an error: bundle relimp successfully installed. But when I tried
to run the program (on an small dataset), nothing happens, not even an error
message .... In the meantime I have
the program running on a different machine running Windows XP (SPSS 19.0.1, R
2.10) and there everything seems to be working ok, apart from a few warning
messages: Warning messages: 1: package 'relaimpo' was built under R version 2.11.0 2: In .recacheSubclasses(def@className, def, doSubclasses, env) : Undefined
subclass, "namedList", of class "listnull"; definition not
updated 3: In .recacheSubclasses(def@className, def, doSubclasses, env) : Undefined
subclass, "listOfMethods", of class "listnull"; definition
not updated Any help to make this work on the Windows 7 machine is still appreciated,
as this is my main working machine. Kind regards, Evidens onderzoekdiensten BV Nieuwpoortstraat 98 D 1055 RZ AMSTERDAM t +31 20 5812912 / +31 6 51235684 f +31 20 5812919 w www.evidens.nl Van: Jon K Peck
