Shared objcect not loaded - r

I am trying to trigger a FORTRAN code from R.
For that I am creating a .so file by giving command
R CMD SHLIB filename.f
The .so file is created without any warnings(!!)
To lead the file in R, I give the following command in R
dyn.load("filename.so")
The file gets loaded as it shows when I give command getLoadedDlls() in R.
But when I try to run it using .Fortran("filename") it throws an error
Error in .Fortran("filename") : Fortran symbol name "filename" not in
load table

How can I upload a genepop file? Keep getting error message

I am trying to analyze microsatellite data and am trying to use the Genepop program.
I made a txt document with my data but when I try to run the program I get this message:
There is no such file in the package 'extdata' directory
I have the working directory set to the right file.

Spaces in paths in batch mode R

I'm trying to get an R script to run from a batch file so it can be nice and clean for other users. Currently, you drag and drop a CSV file onto the batch file and it passes the file name to the R script for input.
When there's a space in the file path/name it works fine in RStudio but causes problems when I call it from the batch file. When I do that it tries to open the path before the space.
I've tried to reformat the file path from within R by using shortPathName(inputPath) and by replacing spaces with "\ " but it doesn't seem to work.
At the moment, the script is launched with
"%~dp0\R-3.6.0\bin\R.exe" CMD BATCH "--args %~1" "%~dp0\Script.R"
with the script containing
args <- commandArgs(TRUE)
inputPath <- args[1]
inputPath <- shortPathName(inputPath)
inputData <- read.csv(inputPath)
It runs fine from within RStudio but crashes when launched from the batch producing this error message in the output file:
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
Calls: read.csv -> read.table -> file
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
cannot open file 'file path up to the space': No such file or directory
Execution halted
By no means a R expert, but I'd try
%~dp0\R-3.6.0\bin\R.exe" CMD BATCH "--args %~s1" "%~dp0\Script.R"
The %~s1 should supply the short filename as the argument.
After trying several formulations of the batch file and some debugging, I found that the batch file was passing the first part of the file before the space as the first argument.
After finding that the use of R in CMD BATCH mode is no longer advisable so switched to running using Rscript mode as
"%~dp0\R-3.6.0\bin\Rscript.exe" --vanilla "%~dp0\Script.R" "%~1"
This allowed for the argument to be passed to R with "", and hence with the space.
Since v3.5.1, R accepts file paths with spaces.

Issues calling on a Stata file and library

I am having an issue trying to call on a data file in Rstudio.
I installed the foreign package and activated it in the packages tab.
highlighted library(foreign); Run
highlighted fertil=read.dta("C:/Users/steve/Downloads/FERTIL1.dta") Run
That's where the file is stored
In Console:
library("foreign", lib.loc="~/R/win-library/3.4")
fertil=read.dta("C:/Users/steve/Downloads/FERTIL1.dta")
Warning message:
In read.dta("C:/Users/steve/Downloads/FERTIL1.dta") :

Executing R script within R 3.3.1 installed on windows

Sorry for a basic question. I'm trying run a R script called cuffdiff_gtf_attributes (please find it at enter link description here in R 3.3.1 installed on the Windows 7. The script is started with the below line:
#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
When I type cuffdiff_gtf_attributes in R, it says Error: object 'cuffdiff_gtf_attributes' not found. Also, I tried Rscript cuffdiff_gtf_attributes that returned me: Error: unexpected symbol in "Rscript cuffdiff_gtf_attributes".
Moreover, I tried source('cuffdiff_gtf_attributes.R')that seems to work and returned the usage of the script as bellow
Error:
usage: cuffdiff_gtf_attributes --input=<inputGTF> [--output=outputGTF] | --help
But, when I add the arguments as source('cuffdiff_gtf_attributes.R') --input=file.gtf, it says that: Error: object 'file.gtf' not found. I also tried this command as source('cuffdiff_gtf_attributes.R') --input file.gtf, it says that Error: unexpected symbol in "source('cuffdiff_gtf_attributes.R') --input file.gtf"
Sorry, I couldn't post a sample GTF file, you can find a short sample of it at enter link description here
Everything is the current path. Could you please help me out to execute the script?
Thanks in advance
This is a script file. You should run using Rscript instead for Rgui.exe. From a command prompt, navigate to the directory where file.gtf is and run:
"%Programfiles%\R\R-3.3.3\bin\Rscript" cuffdiff_gtf_attributes.R --input=file.gtf

R script from command line

I wanted to run this example script: http://mazamascience.com/WorkingWithData/?p=912 from Windows command line. So I opened the command line and typed Rscript tryCatch.R 1. However, I keep getting the error message Error: R not found. I did set the PATH environment variable as C:\Programme\R\R-3.0.1\bin. If I just type R.exe, it does start R, but it cannot find the packages that are to be loaded at start (e.g. package 'utils' in options<"defaultPackages"> was not found). I guess I have to set another path to the libraries somewhere, but I haven't got any idea where to do this.
UPDATE: After explicitly typing PATH C:\Programme\R\R-3.0.1\bin (rather than just adding this to the value of the environment variable PATH) it seems that R is found. However, a new problem occurs: In normalizePath<path.expand(path), winslash, mustWork>: path[2] = "C:/Programme/R/R-3.0.1/library": Access denied, the same than for the methods library. Then: Calls: .First ... library -> .getRequiredPackages2 -> library -> normalizePath Execution stopped. I'm using Windows 7 and I do have administrator rights.
Rscript is very handy (R CMD BATCH is the old way to ) specially under windows, But generally under I create a batch file to avoid all path's headache.
For example say launcher.bat:
#echo off
C:
PATH C:\Programme\R\R-3.0.1\bin;%path%
cd PATH_TO_YOUR_RSCRIPT
Rscript tryCatch.R 1
pause
And open a console(using cmd) , go where you have stored your launcher.bat and launch it. Or from the R cosnole using shell:
shell('path_to_launcher\launcher.bat')
I've found out that it was a language-specific problem on Windows 7, similar to what is described here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2011-May/276932.html
After changing PATH to C:\Program Files\R\R-3.0.1\bin the script is properly executed from the command prompt.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help!
I ran into this problem under windows 7, apparently, when setting environment variables>user variables the path is not added into the PATH, so the user must add this path in system variables > PATH
at the end just add the path to your .EXE files and voila.
