Cannot compile a simple JNI program on Debian Wheezhy


I have solved the problem using this command - shown in error description:

sudo R CMD javareconf


I had a similar problem while installing xlsx package that has some dependenciesmaybe related to java and r java packages...

In order to solve your problem you have to:- check environment variables $JAVA_HOME and $PATH- sudo R CMD javareconf

If it doesn't help, try out my configuration with java-7-oracle,

  • install java-7-oracle via webupd8 repository Installing Java 7 (Oracle) in Debian via apt-get
    • set environment variables $JAVA_HOME and $PATH
    • export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle
    • export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
  • sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-7-oracle
  • sudo R CMD javareconf

and than retry the installation of rjava

I hope it will help you!
