New Post: Error in deployed asp.net application

Guys today I spent a bit of time and I think I've figured out my problem.
I realized that the web application is unable to dynamically set the environment variable PATH when runs under iis by using the following statement:

BinPath = GetWinRegistryPath();
var envPath = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH");
// this statement not work under iis
Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", envPath + Path.PathSeparator + BinPath);

To test this I added manually (from Control Panel/System) the r executable folder to the environment variable and now works fine.
Setting the environment variable works perfectly when you use visual studio development server (cassini) during application development.

I take this opportunity to ask please if there is anyone who knows how to dynamically set the system variable correctly.

Thank you all.

Stefano,
I am currently fighting this same issue. Could you please elaborate on what exactly you did to resolve the issue?

I went into Environment Variables and added 2 entries:

1. RHOME = C:\Program Files\R\R-3.1.1
2. RPATH = "C:\Program Files\R\R-3.1.1\bin\i386
   

But this didn't seem to make any difference when testing locally on IISExpress (in Visual Studio 2013).

Any information that you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
