Dear list,
I installed R 3.3.2 on a Red Hat Linux Enterprise 7.3 machine by adding the
EPEL-repository and then installing it via yum.
R starts up and seems to be doing fine at first sight. However, when I try to
list the files in a directory with the command
files <- list.files(path="/home/username/directory_name/", pattern="*.Rda",,
full.names=T, recursive=FALSE)
I get the error
translateCharUTF8' must be called on a CHARSXP
Execution halted
On my local windows machine the command works fine.
Googling this nothing really comes up except that the installation might be
broken. (See
http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/list-files-error-message-translateCharUTF8-must-be-called-on-a-CHARSXP-td3250302.html)
The strange thing is, that if I copy and paste the command into R and execute
it, it does not work, but if I copy and paste it into R and change that command
in a way that should not change its result but only add spaces or something
like that it might run. E.g. changing it to
files <- list.files(path = "/home/username/directory_name/", pattern =
"*.Rda",, full.names = T, recursive = FALSE)
might work, might not work and return the same error, or might execute but when I then
type "files" that might return
[1]Error: 'getCharCE' must be called on a CHARSXP
The sessionInfo commmand gives me:

uname -mrs gives me:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
