I have been using Rstudio for a while and there was no problem until I was trying to install rJava and xlsx package in R. I had updated both my RGui and Rstudio to the latest version (also downloaded java x64 bit for my desktop since earlier I had a Java_Home error message trying to install both rJava and xlsx package) and I was able to install both rJava and xlsx in Rstudio, but when I use
library(xlsx)
I encountered the R session aborted message. This happen every time even when I already closed the application and tried to open it again.
I'm currently using 2022.02.2 Build 485 for my Rstudio and 4.20.0 for my RGui. Anyone knows what I can do with this?
edit: I ended up using a different package to read my excel file (read_excel) for my data which worked very well. However, I still don't know what is the problem with my 'xlsx' package
This issue has been discussed in RStudio Community

You should install a patched version

I have installed package Geneland (https://github.com/gilles-guillot/Geneland) using github on my MacOS BigSur v.11.2.2 , R version 4.0.4 (2021-02-15), after running it successfully in past and then deleting it.
First time, I have a huge problem with the installation, but now there was no problems with gfortran etc. that I have encountered when installing it for the first time.
Right now I am dealing with R session aborted ("R Session Aborted: R encountered a fatal error. The session was terminated.") when I try to run PostProcessChain after running the MCMC analysis. R session just crushes with no error information. So the software itself run the analysis successfully, I just cannot get any output of the results.
Is there any solution to this or at least a way to find out where is the problem?
The only difference is that I think I had older version of R before.
Thank you for your help.
I am trying to use the Isolation Forest package in R to run some code. I had RStudio 3.3.1 but I kept getting an error "package ‘IsolationForest’ is not available"! Looking at the description file it says it depends on R >= 2.0.0, so I got RStudio 2.15.2, instead. However, I get the same problem again. Can someone help me with this situation? I am using Windows 7 for RStudio 2.15.2
Running happily with R 3.4 and RStudio 1.0.143 under Win10 this problem occured bringing project development to a halt. Downloads each occur and are unzipped and then the a presumably first file in the first item gets:
Error in install.packages : cannot open file 'C:/Users/Admin/Documents/R/
win-library/3.4/file30504386b80/rJava/javadoc/resources/background.gif':
Permission denied
and the prompt returns.
Updating to R version 3.4.1 (2017-06-30), RStudio Version 1.0.153 was to no avail. Using the OS to remolve all R versions and trying again with 3.4.1 did not work. Removing R again and deleting the R directory to refresh the library did not work. My virius software like to tell how helpful it has been and has not, so that issue seems unlikely.
Giving the user full control of the R library did not help.
could package-updates be a tag like install-updates?
It looks there is a problem between Java and rJava.
You should try reinstalling Java using chocolatey package manager (https://chocolatey.org/) and then reinstall rJava package.
I had a similar issue two weeks ago on a windows laptop.
I had this problem for a long time. only in RStudio.
Install the package on R and Library it. Go to RStudio and require the package.
It works!
I am running R 3.2.2 on Windows 8. After installing R packages, rattle and rpart.plot in RStudio an error message propped up in a separate panel.
Rterm.exe - System Error.
The program can't start because libatk-1.0-0.dll is missing from your computer.
Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
Does anybody have any clue as to what this means and how to fix this?
Thank you all for your inputs. I managed to figure it out.
The problem arose as a result of missing GTK+ file. I'm not exactly sure what GTK+ really is, but I know that GTK+ is a preliminary file needed to install the Rattle Package. Here's the step I took to download the GTK+ file.
First, remove all the tabs opened in RStudio.
Use install.packages to download Rattle package. A window should pop up asking to see if you want to download GTK+. Click Yes.
Restart RStudio.
I tried closing all the tabs and installing rattle but no pop up appear for me. I then tried installing the package "RGTK2" (fyi, my R studio is version 3.2.0) and after completing this installation, the error message can be closed off.
I restarted Rstudio and the rterm.exe error didn't appear anymore.
I had this issue.
1) Close all open source code tabs
2) install.packages("RGtk2")
I didn't even need to restart R-Studio
I just wanted to add a variation of this error. The error only appeared when using RStudio and not in the RGui. I followed Daniel Lee's answer but with no luck at first, but it pointed me in the right direction. I closed RStudio and opened The R console (RGui), and decided to uninstall the rattle package first, and then reinstalled it again. I never got the pop-up asking about downloading the GTK+. It was only when I specifically tried to run rattle: rattle() that rattle complained that the it could not find the GTK+ and prompted me to download and install it. As it turned out I had already downloaded this via another source, so rattle could not install it as it was already installed and was presented with the following warning:
Warning messages:
1: Failed to load RGtk2 dynamic library, attempting to install it.
2: In dir.create(config_path, recursive = TRUE) :
'C:\Users\[me]\Documents\R\win-library\3.3\RGtk2\gtk\x64\etc\gtk-2.0' already exists
I then attempted to start rattle, which was successful. I then started up RStudio and again fire up rattle again with success, and the error libatk-1.0-0.dll is missing has now disappeared.
Current setup: R version 3.3.0, RStudio version 0.99.896
Try uninstalling the rattle package, then it will prompt to install GTK+. Install that and then cancel the uninstall of the rattle package. Quit R studio and restart it. The libtak error will disappear.
I would only get this error when running RStudio. I did close all my RStudio tabs and cleared the workspace as suggested by others. Installing rattle from RStudio would still produce the error. For me, it looks like RStudio could not install RGtk2 due to some permissions issue (i.e. Access Denied with removing the old RGtk2).
I had to manually delete rattle and RGtk2 folders from my R library folder (for me it was in my users folder My Documents\R\win-library\3.3). Then from Rgui (NOT RStudio), I did install.packages("rattle"). This also installed RGtk2 without any permissions issues. The error is now gone.
Incase if it has occured from installing the rattle package in R,Just uninstall the package using remove.packages() and restart the R session. The error dissapears :)
To answer the question:
Does anybody have any clue as to what this means ?
It happens in RStudio and is related to rattle which uses RGtk2. -
This problem is because you had order version of RGtk2 installed (likely 2.20.30), which was the highest possible version for earlier version of RStudio (likely 1.0.44 or earlier) and which is required for rattle. Now when you installed new version of RStudio (1.0.143), it is not compatible with older RGtk2 version. Once you install RGtk2 again (just from Tools menu or run install.packages("RGtk2") in RStudio) , it will overwrite the old version of RGtk2 with newest (2.20.33 version), which is now compatible with 1.0.143 version of RStudio, and this fixes the problem.
