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.

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.

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.

HTH,

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?
