Running betfaiR package betfair_1.0.0.zip install with R in administrator mode seems to go well on Windows x64 with no error messages.

First load of betfaiR via > library(betfair) also seems to start well with dependent packages downloading, unpacking and checking v MD5. However there are several error messages towards the end of the initial load:

Loading required package: bitops

Loading required package: zoo

Attaching package: 'zoo'

The following object() are masked from 'package:base':

as.Date, as.Date.numeric

...

Loading required package: RCurl

Warning messages:

1: In utils::: packageDescription(x): no package 'bitops' was found

2: In utils::: packageDescription(x): no package 'zoo' was found

3: In utils::: packageDescription(x): no package 'xts' was found

4: In utils::: packageDescription(x): no package 'iterators' was found

5: In utils::: packageDescription(x): no package 'foreach' was found

6: In utils::: packageDescription(x): no package 'RCurl' was found

Looks to me that package installation just isn't happening.

Yes, those additional packages do not seem to have installed in the example above.  They are all separate independent packages bundled together with the install so can be installed separately, though the last time we tested this was not necessary...
