FWIW, I don't get any error messages. I have no idea what the exported
file should look like: I attach both the exported pdf and the exported
html below (as well as the org file, which is just cut-n-pasted from
what you posted).

Versions:

Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.224.g6e14)
GNU Emacs 24.0.50.2 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.22.0) of 2011-09-13

I'll pull the newest bits and try again.

#+TITLE: This is a test

#+AUTHOR: Michael Hannon
#+email: jm_hannon@yahoo.com

#+BABEL: :session *R* :cache yes :results output graphics :exports both :tangle yes

* Getting Started

** Batch Mode

#+begin_src R :exports code

pdf("xh.pdf") # set graphical output file
hist(rnorm(100)) # generate 100 N(0,1) variates and plot their histogram
dev.off() # close the graphical output file

#+end_src

If we put the code above in a file called =z.R=, we can execute the
code from the command line via: =R CMD BATCH z.R=

#+begin_src R

  x <- c(1, 3, 5)

#+end_src


#+begin_src R

  x[3]

#+end_src


#+begin_src R

  q <- c(x,x,8)

#+end_src


#+begin_src R

  x

#+end_src
