Hi,

trying ROracle failed? I'm using Oracle.8.1.7 which is on another machine.
With Tora i get access to the database what i wish to get with R-Project, too. 

What does the message mean?
"Oracle pre-compiler proc not in /opt/oracle/OraHome1/bin/proc
you may not be able to compile ROracle" 
I'm using linux sue9 and R.1.8.1.

many thanks for any help!
