Dear all,

I am trying to install OpenMx version 2.5.2 and I get the following error message:
"*** No rule to make target `omxSymbolTable.cpp', needed by `omxSymbolTable.o'. Stop."

What does this mean and how can I solve this?

Best regards
Charlotte

Dear all,

My colleague solved it. Apparently these have to be updated before the installation (as the dependencies are not correctly linked in the package?):
LinkingTo: Rcpp, RcppEigen, StanHeaders (≥ 2.7), BH, rpf (≥ 0.45)

Best wishes,
Charlotte

Dear Charlotte,

Seems that the getOpenMx.R file got out of date; Thanks for letting us know!

It will be re-written to be automatic from now-on.

T. Bates is assuming you used the download instructions on this website to install OpenMx (which seems a likely scenario). If that's the case, then yes, the problem you encountered should be resolved soon if not already. However, if you were installing from CRAN or from a local clone of the git source repository, please say so, because there might still be a lingering problem.
