rJava install error “JAVA_HOME cannot be determined from the Registry”

Question

I am trying to load the rJava using the command:

 library(rJava)

But I get the following error:

 Error : .onLoad failed i         


        

Answer 1

This error is often resolved by installing a Java version (i.e. 64-bit Java or 32-bit Java) that fits to the type of R version that you are using (i.e. 64-bit R or 32-bit R). This problem can easily effect Windows 7 users, since they might have installed a version of Java that is different than the version of R they are using.
