RNetLogo not working on Mac Yosemite

问题

I just tried this, but I got this error message. Any ideas about how to fix it? I am using the R version 3.1.1, RNetLogo_1.0-1, the platform is x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0 (64-bit), Java 7 update 60.

Sys.setenv(NOAWT=1)
library(JGR)
Sys.unsetenv("NOAWT")

JGR()
library(RNetLogo)

nl.path <- "/Applications/NetLogo 5.1.0"
NLStart(nl.path) 
Error in .jnew("nlcon/Preprocess") : 
  java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: nlcon/Preprocess : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

回答1:

You need at least Java 7.

I have missed to update the requirements in the package description to Java >= 7. Sorry for that. The CRAN maintainers ask me to clean up the package, i.e. update to Java 7 and remove support for old Java and NetLogo versions.

If older Java should be used, get old RNetLogo version (e.g. 1.0-0) from CRAN archive.

Best wishes, Jan

What version of RNetLogo are you using? According to http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RNetLogo/news.html , RNetLogo version 0.9-6 fixed a bug that caused the "Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" version error.

please check which Java version is used by R. I checked it on one of my Ubuntu installation with Java 7 without any problem. Yes, support for very old Java and NetLogo versions have been removed with 1.0-1 as requested by CRAN maintainers (that's not a bug).

Please execute the following functions in R to check which Java is active:

    library(rJava)
    .jinit()
    .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.vm.version")
    .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.vm.name")
    .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.vm.info")
    .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.runtime.version")
    .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "sun.arch.data.model")

Cheers, Jan

Wanted to put this as a comment, but I lost my right to commenting by awarding a bounty to the question and getting below 50 rep... :-S

@Jan : I executed the functions you mentioned and got the following

[1] 0
     .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.vm.version")
[1] "20.65-b04-462"
     .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.vm.name")
[1] "Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM"
     .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.vm.info")
[1] "mixed mode"
     .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.runtime.version")
[1] "1.6.0_65-b14-462-11M4609"
     .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "sun.arch.data.model")
[1] "64"

I understand that R might not be picking up the right Java version. I also get the error message

Error in .jnew("nlcon/Preprocess") : 
  java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: nlcon/Preprocess : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

Am I understanding correctly that version 51.0 corresponds to some update of Java 7? Should there be a problem with Java 7? Do we really need to make sure R finds and uses Java 8? I guess that R is still trying to use Java 7 suggest there is something wrong? Any idea how to fix this?

Edit following last answer by Jan

@Jan : thanks for following up on the question. I might chose to go back to older versions of RNetLogo if it solves the problem. The thing is I installed Java 8, so I would expect R to use it, but somehow it seems that it does not. For clarity, I'll start another question in order to figure out how to solve this ( see Getting R to use newer versions of java).

This being said from Getting R to use newer versions of java and the fact that the error message in R mentions version 51 I understand that I am indeed using Java 7, so there should be no problem with RNetLogo right?

After several weeks trying to fix it, RNetLogo is finally working on my laptop with Yosemite and The Capitan. Here you have technical details regarding the solution: https://github.com/s-u/rJava/issues/37

This is what I did (remember that I use R in terminal):

Install Java 8 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html)
Install Java 6 from Mac (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572)
It is necessary to define correctly the java home directory. I used /Library/Java/Home, but it could be another. You can use eclipse IDE (preferences, installed jREs) to define the directory.
Reconfigure R using sudo R CMD javareconf -n in terminal
In terminal, set the path to lijvm.dylib

jvm = 'ls /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_60.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/server/lijvm.dylib' sudo install_name_tool -id "$jvm" "$jvm"

Install rJava as source install.packages("rJava", type="source")
You can check in the terminal to make sure you have linked rJava against 1.8 and not 1.6.

DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES=1 R library(rJava) .jinit() .jcall("java/lang/System", "S", "getProperty", "java.runtime.version")

Then, install RNetLogo. That's it.
