This is not enough information. How long did you wait for R to read the 
CDF file? This step can take several minutes, depending on the size of 
the CDF (and much longer if you have very little RAM and are swapping). 
How large is this CDF? How much RAM do you have? What is the result of a 
sessionInfo() after loading the makecdfenv package?

Best,

Jim
