OpenMx Installation

Hi, I'm trying to install on a Fedora 17 system, it fails with:

checking for inst/npsol/linux/x86/gcc4.7/libnpsol.a... no
configure: error: npsol library not found

I've installed successfully on ubuntu 12.04 (which has gcc v 4.6).

Is would it work to copy over the library, or does this really need to be recompiled?

Hello, I have a problem when reading the data, for example, when I type "data(mv.csv)", there always returns a warning message: data set 'mv.csv' not found. Even when I add the document path "data('/Users/Documents/mv.csv'), the data are also not be able to find. Actually, this problem is not all about OpenMx, it relates to the whole R system. But I can only think of here to ask this question. Sorry, I forgot to say my computer system, it is MAC OS X 10.8.
Your help would be appreciated.

Hello.

I read that 64-bit version of OpenMx is under development. Do you have any time frame when approximately it will be available? I am just running an analysis that take a LOT of time since 32-bit R uses only 4 GB of RAM.
Is there an advantage of installing OpenMx on a 64-bit Windows machine even though using 32-bit OpenMx?

Thank you beforehand.

I cannot compile OpenMx from SVN.

The repository seems to be running on subversion 1.6 while I am running subversion 1.7. This makes the following version extraction command from the makefile fail:
svnversion -c | sed -e 's/[MS]//g' -e 's/^[[:digit:]]*://'
with the error:
svn: E155036: Working copy '/workspace/OpenMx/trunk' is too old (format 10, created by Subversion 1.6)

I could not found a workaround other than downgrading my subversion to 1.6. Have you encountered this?

Hi
Windows 32 bit R 2.15.0 is returning the following:

> source('http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/getOpenMx.R')
Installing package(s) into ‘C:/Users/woad/Documents/R/win-library/2.15’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning: unable to access index for repository http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/packages/bin/windows/contrib/2.15
Warning message:
package ‘OpenMx’ is not available (for R version 2.15.0)

Do you have a time line for support of this version?
thanks

Hi everybody,

I want to install OpenMx on on openSUSE 12.1 but it doesn't work. The R version is 2.13.2 and I'm not sure if the RKWard (KDE's R graphical front end) may interfere. Could you help me please?

Thanks;

R's code output:

Having an issue compiling OpenMx on Windows 7 (64 bit).

Before revision 1908 I don't have this problem. On revision 1909 and afterwards, I get the output below.

This error occurs with both R 2.13.0 and R 2.14.2. This is with the PATH location referring specifically to R-2.X.X\bin\i386 for each, so I don't think it has anything to do with 64-bitness. Also, builds correctly on a Ubuntu install on the same machine.

c:\Users\Dan\Documents\Projects\openmx\trunk>make install
svnversion: not found
svnversion: not found
rm -rf build/*
rm -rf models/passing/temp-files/*

Latest versions and updates for OS, R and R Studio:

OS: Mac OS X 10.6.8
R: 2.14.1
RStudio: 0.95.261

When trying to run the install command: source('http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/getOpenMx.R')

from the R prompt nothing happens after it loads the tcltk interface:

> source('http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/getOpenMx.R')
Loading required package: tcltk
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ...

and when running the install command from the R prompt in RStudio I get a tcltk interface but when I clock the "OK" button under the choice of sequential/multicore choice buttons nothing happens.

Attempting to download to R 2.14.1, I receive the following message. New to R, so I'm pretty sure it's a simple error on my part...

> source('http://openmx.psyc.virginia.edu/getOpenMx.R')
Error in file(filename, "r", encoding = encoding) :
cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(filename, "r", encoding = encoding) :
unable to resolve 'openmx.psyc.virginia.edu'

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,

I am trying to install OpenMx on a linux red-hat 64 bit system, but I get an error message (see summary below and full output in attached file). I have tried this under R version 2.12.2 and also the latest R version R 2.14.2.
The same error message occurs when installing from the source.
Can you help?

Thanks in advance,
Rachel
