Hi all, I am trying to run the package xlsx to read Excel 2007 files and I am getting the error below.
> library(xlsx) Loading required package: xlsxjars Loading required package: rJava Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'xlsxjars', details: call: .jinit() error: cannot obtain Class.getSimpleName method ID Error: package 'xlsxjars' could not be loaded By looking up this in the mailing list I have seen that it is an error related to the configuration of the path. I was also made aware that the path read into R gets truncated if it is too long. To avoid any issue I have added the jre at the very beginning of the path - see below > p = Sys.getenv("PATH") > strsplit(p,";") $PATH [1] "c:\\Program Files\\Java\\j2re1.4.2_06\\bin\\client\\" [2] "c:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.5.0_06\\bin\\client\\" [3] "c:\\oracle\\ora92\\bin\\" [4] "c:\\oracle\\ora92\\jre\\1.4.2\\bin\\" [5] "c:\\oracle\\ora92\\jre\\1.4.2\\bin\\client\\" [6] "c:\\program files\\oracle\\jre\\1.3.1\\bin\\" [7] "C:\\WINDOWS\\system32" [8] "C:\\WINDOWS" .... In the path variable the items have been pasted like this: c:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_06\bin\client\;c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin\client\; The issue still persists. Can you please help?
