Right, you have to have write-access is /usr/lib/R/etc/ so it can update the configuration to record your Java settings. I was asking because the above it obviously non-portable - i.e. if I install Oracle Java the path will be different and also it will be different for Java 1.8 etc. Hence you'd need to re-run javareconf any time the Java configuration changes (thanks to Sun/Oracle for that wonderful design) - unless you have canonical place you can use. From your original settings it looked like you have some default-java symlink which would help here - except that it has the broken path to java which is where the trouble started in the first place. I suspect that fixing your default config to have a valid path to java should be enough as long as that default setting is maintained at the system level.
