I'm attempting to schedule an R script as mentioned in the Scheduling R Script stackoverflow answer but I keep getting an error that says

ARGUMENT 'BATCH' \__ignored__

ARGUEMENT 'C:/Users/cburton/AutomaticJobPuller/jobsPuller.R' \__ignored__

and then it has the startup prompt for the R programming environment.

The contents in my batch file are 

C:\Users\cburton\Documents\R\R-3.2.0\bin\R.exe BATCH     C:\Users\cburton\AutomaticJobPuller\jobsPuller.R --vanilla

This is my first batch file, so I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't find the answer to this.

  • The answer you mentioned uses Rcmd.exe, not R.exe . I'm a Linux user, so I'm not sure, but may be worth a try (Rscript.exe too).

  • Have you tried `C:\Users\cburton\Documents\R\R-3.2.0\bin\Rscript.exe C:\Users\cburton\AutomaticJobPuller\jobsPuller.R --vanilla`? – Molx Jun 24 '15 at 18:30
