Description

It was noticed in this activity https://support.d4science.org/issues/4652#note-24 that R configuration was misaligned between DataMiner execution environment and RStudio simulation environment. This was noticed in production RPrototypingLab VRE.

Could be please work on this alignment? It is really important that R configs are aligned to avoid any troubleshooting on algorithms where the cause is not in the latter but due to discrepancies in the R configuration (Dataminer vs. RStudio).

A first important alignment is about R system locales, as spotted in the above ticket; setting a R profile where the following statement is invoked:

Sys.setlocale(category = "LC_ALL", locale = "en_US.UTF-8")

Are there other subtasks associated to this activity? If we follow the ticket netiquette, sub tickets are a partition of the activities required to satisfy the needs. In other words, if we open sub ticket then all activities should be in the sub ticket and nothing in the main ticket.
In this case, there is only one sub ticket and this is in feedback case. Please consider it and close it if possible. At this point if no other specific sub tickets are open this master issue will be closed as well.
I hope I clarified the behaviour we should follow.

Hello, let me explain, I created this ticket to make it clearly separated from an activity (developed a specific R algorithm) that was going beyond this scope. Then i've realized that there was already task created on it to address specifically the R locales (i was not aware of). Hence:

  • the present ticket is aimed to be a parent task, and i'm also going to add a dependent ticket for other R config alignment requirements
  • i'm happy to see that ticket #5290 has been issued and treated promptly after i've pointed out the issue, but if someone request "feedback" in it, please ensure to add people that is supposed to provide the feedback (i "discovered" the ticket only yesterday, and as said in it, i will provide feedback ASAP).

Hope this clarifies

The R profile was set some time ago by Gianpaolo, FYI
