Thanks, this worked beautifully.  

Given my level of knowledge of Linux I hardly even knew that  Ubuntu was a 
Debian derivative. and I am just begining to discover sudo.  

Thanks again.

Just install the existing binary package, eg via

sudo apt-get install r-cran-rjava

as rJava is packaged and ready-to-use.

Questions for Debian, Ubuntu and related distros are best asked on the
R-SIG-Debian list.

Re: [R] install rJava in Ubuntu 11.10

2012-02-24 Thread Arnaud Gaboury
As a Linux user, I know you are not running exactly the same Java as on 
windows. It exists some copyright issues which prevent you to run Sun Java on 
your Linux box. 
As shown, you are running in fact openJDK. If result is the same for you, being 
able to run Java, it is not the same for most apps.
Install folders are different, and I guess R cannot find the right place for 
your Java environment.

Try to google more on this issue (Java on Linux openJDK install folder), or 
anything about "building Android on Linux"( same problem as Android needs 
java). There is something you could try: add the openJDK path in your 
environment.

Hope this help.

Subject: [R] install rJava in Ubuntu 11.10

I am trying to install rJava on a WUBI  Ubuntu 11.10 installation of R with no 
luck. I was originally trying to install the iplots package and encountered 
this rJava problem.

Code used:
install.packages("rJava")

(CRAN mirrors --Canada(ON) and Canada(QC2)

I installed iplots with no problem on Windows 7.

I know just about zero about Ubuntu or Linux in general so I have no idea what 
I am doing.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

I am getting the error/warning messages below.

Cannot compile a simple JNI program. See config.log for details.

Make sure you have Java Development Kit installed and correctly registered in R.
If in doubt, re-run "R CMD javareconf" as root.

Does the R CMC javareconf need something added?
(i.e. R CMD javaconf xxx)

Do I really need a  Java Development Kit installed?
