[kepler-users] Different behavior of an R script in R terminal and R actor of Kepler

[Josep Maria Campanera Alsina]

Hi Derik,
I downloaded the Kepler 2.3 from
https://kepler-project.org/users/downloads and installed in a MAC OS
10.7.4. The I installed the reporting module and that it. Kepler runs
nicely in my system.

Thank you for your attention and let me know any progress on that.

All the best,

Josep M,
