STATS_RELIMP

Gerard van Meurs-2
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.
 
 
Cheers!!

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.

Re: STATS_RELIMP

In reply to this post by Jon K Peck

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,
