error: unable to load installed packages just now

Question

When I tried to run the R console in Eclipse, I got this error:

....Please make sure that R package \'rj\' (1.1 or compatible) is installed...

Answer 1

or just set the library in R?

I just ran this command in R:

Sys.setenv(JAVA_HOME='/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/amd64/server')

(replace "/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/amd64/server" with your Java library path which can be found running "sudo R CMD javareconf")

Might not be the most elegant solution - but it worked for me!
