----------------------------------
Summary: [R] Installation on RHEL 7 Cannot call
io___MemoryMappedFile__Open()
Key: ARROW-7807
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7807
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: R
Affects Versions: 0.16.0
Environment: RHEL 7.6
Custom R build in a non-default location
Reporter: Omar Yassin
Hey Team,
I've been using Arrow successfully in python through conda and have been able
to write and read parquet files successfully. Now I'm trying to have R users
consume some of the parquet files I've produced. They run a shared R build in a
custom location, so can't use conda with their setup. We tried installing the
C++ libraries system-wide and then the R library in a user's directory, but
kept getting {color:#de350b}{{Cannot call io___MemoryMappedFile__Open()
}}{color}errors on{color:#de350b}{{ read_parquet()}}{color}. I'm not sure if
we've missed a step, or where to continue debugging. Does the R package have
any known issues on RHEL 7? Below are some details:
Environment:
* RHEL 7.6
* Custom local R environment in a non-default location
Steps taken:
# Installed the C++ libraries first (now live in /usr/lib64) as described
(v.0.16.0) in [https://arrow.apache.org/install/]
# Ran {color:#de350b}{{install.packages('arrow')}}{color} in an interactive R
session
# It couldn't find the C++ libraries and said {{{color:#de350b}No C++ binaries
found for rhel-7{color}}}
# Couldn't find
[https://dl.bintray.com/ursalabs/arrow-r/libarrow/bin/rhel-7/arrow-0.16.0.zip]
when it tried to pull the binaries
# Source download didn't work due to internal github firewall rules
# Installed without errors, but threw {{{color:#de350b}Cannot call
io___MemoryMappedFile__Open(){color}}} error on
{{{color:#de350b}read_parquet(){color}}}
# Removed the rlib/arrow directory and tried a different route
# Set {{{color:#de350b}LIBARROW_BINARY_DISTRO='centos-7'{color}}}
# Set {{{color:#de350b}PKG_CONFIG=/usr/lib64{color}}}
# Ran {color:#de350b}{{install.packages('arrow')}}{color} in an interactive R
session
# Binaries and package seemed to install correctly without complaints
# Still threw {{{color:#de350b}Cannot call
io___MemoryMappedFile__Open(){color} }}on{{ {color:#de350b}read_parquet{color}}}
