Problem Installing ArcGIS Bindings v 1.0.0.124 about r-bridge-install

[scw]

Hello @andytrcka, I see you closed this issue — did you already resolve it yourself? If not, happy to help look into the issue for you. Nothing you did looks incorrect, though I can't see why ArcPy is unable to run the GetInstallInfo() function. If you are still having problems, could you try typing the following into the Python window of ArcMap?

arcpy.GetInstallInfo()

Forgot to mention... I also configured the Path environmental variable to accommodate R. But I am curious if I entered the path info info correctly as I entered these four into path (each separated by a semi-colon):
C:\Program Files\R\R-3.3.1
C:\Program Files\R\R-3.3.1\bin
C:\Program Files\R\R-3.3.1\library
C:\Program Files\R\R-3.3.1\modules

Shaun, Thanks for getting ahold of me. I mistakenly closed this issue! IT should still be open. At work tomorrow I'll try what you suggested and let you know the results. Again... Thanks!!

…

-a.t.

I ran arcpy.GetInstallInfo as instructed:

arcpy.GetInstallInfo()
{'SourceDir': u'C:\Windows\ccmcache\c7\Client\SetupFiles\', 'InstallDate': u'4/8/2016', 'InstallDir': u'c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.3\', 'ProductName': u'Desktop', 'BuildNumber': u'4959', 'InstallType': u'N/A', 'Version': u'10.3.1', 'SPNumber': u'N/A', 'Installer': u'SYSTEM', 'SPBuild': u'N/A', 'InstallTime': u'14:25:25'}

Hi @andytrcka OK, that looks fine. Not sure what's up with ArcCatalog, but rereading your initial issue, it sounds like it's installed OK – if you see the message

product: ArcGIS Desktop (10.3.1.4559)
License: Advanced

That means you're all set! The bridge is installed, and can be used from within R. If you'd like to use it from within ArcGIS, you can try one of the sample tools from the sample tools repository, or can use the self-tests provided within the package. Those are included in a toolbox located in C:\Program Files\R\R-3.3.1\library\arcgisbinding\examples, add that location to ArcMap or ArcCatalog, and try running any of the tools. If they produce output, you're in business.

Cheers,
Shaun
