Compiling R from source: RStudio doesn't find the libraries if started directly

I have compiled R 4.1.0 from source against the Intel MKL.
I have put:
source /opt/intel/oneapi/mkl/latest/env/vars.sh intel64
in ~/.bashrc.
If I open a .R file with RStudio, no problem.
But if I open RStudio directly, it is unable to start R correctly, giving me the error:
/usr/lib/rstudio/bin/rsession: error while loading shared libraries: libmkl_gf_lp64.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Why is that? Doesn't RStudio run ~/.bashrc when started directly?
I am running Fedora 34 Workstation.
When shared libraries are stored in "non-standard locations" we have to tell the dynamic linker about it. That is sometimes done in the calling script (often the case with bundled software, e.g. when you download RStudio which ships with a fair number of local builds of shared libraries) but a more general solution is to tell ldconfig via its configuration.
Older systems used a line per directory in /etc/ld.so.conf. Newer systems generalize this (like many other configurations) with a directory containing small files with entries. So you can create a file named, say, /etc/ld.so.conf.d/local-mkl.conf, and place the directory path in there. If you then run sudo ldconfig all applications will know about it -- including R and RStudio calling R.

Architect / StatET: Launching R Console was cancelled because R engine failed

I recently upgraded to Architect version 0.9.7 on my Win 7 machine. However, after starting Architect, the RJ console wouldn't launch and I got the error message:
‘Launching the R Console was cancelled, because It seems starting the R engine failed.”
Please make sure that R package 'rj' (2.0 or compatible) is installed and
that the R library paths are set correctly for the R environment
configuration 'Embedded R Server'.
I installed the packages ‘rj’ and ‘rj.gd’ through the RTerm run console (which does happen to work) within Architect using the command suggested on www.walware.de:
install.packages(c("rj", "rj.gd"), repos="http://download.walware.de/rj-2.0")
Then, I restarted windows, and restarted Architect. Same error message. I zoomed in on the details of the error message and noticed the following line:
SEVERE: Path to rj package not found. Use R_LIBS or java property
'de.walware.rj.rpkg.path' to specify the location.
So I opened an RTerm run console to check whether any of my .libPaths() locations contains the directories ‘rj’ or ‘rj.gd’. Oddly enough, they do. My first .libPaths path contains both packages. So that doesn’t seem to be the reason.
How could this be fixed?
I received prompt and helpful feedback from Open Analytics (thanks!), who informed me that the problem is due to changes in Java 8. With Java 7, Architect works fine. The next release of Architect will incorporate the changes in Java 8.
In order to get it work with Java 7, enforce the use of a specific Java Runtime, by using the -vm argument in the architect.ini file as follows:
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe
(mind the line break, which is required)
This is particularly useful if you have several Java versions on your system where the default Java is not suitable for use with Architect. The architect.ini file is found directly at the top level of the installation folder of Architect. You can find out where this is by looking at the Properties of the Architect shortcut on your desktop.
N.B. the -vm argument should be put before the -vmargs argument otherwise it is simply ignored!
N.B. examples of -vm specification on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X:

link to libpq failed with unresolved symbol _PQconnectdb

I use Qt5, msvc2010, windows7 64bit.
I want to test if i can link libpq.lib.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/libpq-example.html
I build the above example in QtCreator.
And get
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _PQconnectdb in function "_main"
I check my libpq.lib use dumpbin libpq.lib /exports
And get
1 PQconnectdb
156 PQconnectdbParams
How to See the Contents of Windows library (*.lib)
so difference is PQconnectdb and _PQconnectdb.
Is that underscore that makes the linker can't find the real symbol PQconnectdb?
Why the compiler add an underscore to the symbol?
How can I solve this problem?
Is that underscore that makes the linker can't find the real symbol
PQconnectdb? Why the compiler add an underscore to the symbol?
This is the __cdecl convention that is still in effect for x86 (32 bits) but has been obsoleted for 64 bits builds.
Since dumpbin libpq.lib /exports shows no underscores, it means that this library comes from a 64 bits build.
To produce a 32 bits program, replace your libraries with the lib directory from a 32 bits PostgreSQL zip archive. The contents will be compatible with your current build configuration that appears to be 32 bits.
On the other hand, to produce a 64 bits program, configure Qt Creator to use a 64 bits "Kit" (e.g. in Qt Creator 3, Projects tab, see Add Kit in the Build & Run panel) with the 64 bits PostgreSQL libraries you already have.

Julia version in Julia Studio

(a) I have Julia Studio 0.4.3 and the settings for libraries in my installation (Windows) point to C:/Program Files (x86)/JuliaStudio-0.4.3/julia-studio/Julia. Within that directory, I found julia-basic.exe, julia-debug.exe, julia-debug-readline.exe and julia-readline.exe. I didn't find julia.exe in that folder.
If I write a Julia file within Julia studio, but later I want to run it in cmd line or a bat file, which exe should I use?
Do I need to install Julia separately if I want to run Julia from cmd line or a bat file (Windows)?
(b) Also the Julia documentation says that I can start Julia with -p n option (where n is the number of workers). Is it possible to do this within Julia Studio?
Julia Studio uses the julia-basic executable. There is no julia executable, per se. Rather there is julia-basic and julia-readline executables, the later of which has GNU Readline capabilities. The debug versions of the executables included debug symbols in the executable--it does not sound like you need those.
You can add processors in the REPL with addprocs (link to docs). There is no requirement to define the number of processors up front when starting the Julia process.

Question about JRI error

I try to run my R script in Java, thus I installed JRI. and run the example, I am using Eclipse on 64 bits windows 7. part of the example code is as follows:
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Creating Rengine (with arguments)");
Rengine re=new Rengine(args, false, null);
System.out.println("Rengine created, waiting for R");
if (!re.waitForR()) {
System.out.println("Cannot load R");
return;
}
However, everytime I run it. it teminated after print out "Creating Rengine (with arguments)" never successfully print out "Rengine created, waiting for R"
I do not know what is right argument to input, I have tried to add "--no-save" under the Program arguments of eclipse run configuration, but still does not help.
any suggestions? Many thanks

R_HOME must be set correctly
(Windows): The directory containing
R.dll must be in your PATH
(Mac): Well, it's a Mac, so it just
works ;).
(unix): R must be compiled using
--enable-R-shlib and the directory containing libR.so must be in
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Also libjvm.so and
other dependent Java libraries must
be on LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
JRI library must be in the current
directory or any directory listed in
java.library.path.
Alternatively you can specify its
path with -Djava.library.path=
when starting the JVM. When you use
the latter, make sure you check
java.library.path property first such
that you won't break your Java.
Depending on your system, the R
verison and other features you want
to use, you may have to set
additional settings such as
R_SHARE_DIR, R_INCLUDE_DIR and
R_DOC_DIR.

Running JRI example Java with Eclipse on Mac OS X
Copied the rJava/jri/examples/rtest.java to Eclipse JRI/src/.
Copied the JRI.jar from the jri directory to the JRI/lib/ and added it to the build path.
The rtest.java compiles but it did not run as a Java application.
Apparently, it needs to be run by: ./run rtest.
After examining the "run" shell script which comes with the rJava package (inside ./jri/), I have set up these in the Eclipse run configuration:
Environnment:
R_HOME = /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources
PATH=/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/
In addition, the example run shell script sets up the following Environment vars:
R_INCLUDE_DIR=Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include
R_SHARE_DIR=Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share
R_DOC_DIR=Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/doce
JRI_LID_PATH=Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/lib:/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin
VM argument:
-Djava.library.path=/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/rJava/jri/
JRI.jar is now referenced in the build path, which is:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/rJava/jri/JRI.jar.
This automatically appears under the -cp tab in the run configuration.
Also, the run configuration requires a program argument: --save, --no-save or --vanilla.
Chances are it's not finding jri.dll or R.dll. If you see nothing, not even an exception, the JVM is crashing. Look for files like hs_pid* which should tell you which library is the culprit.
I have found this question in my own struggles with R on Windows, although on Linux it just worked.
I too found I was getting "Creating Rengine (with arguments)" but nothing further.
It was finding jri.dll and R.dll, which I was able to prove:
jri.dll - deleted it from the current directory, which generated the error:
Cannot find JRI native library!
Please make sure that the JRI native library is in a directory listed in java.library.path.
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jri in java.library.path
(on copying it back, make sure to take the right 32 or 64 bit version to avoid "Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform" type errors)
R.dll lives under the installation directory C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15.0\bin\x64
If the PATH is set incorrectly in the run.bat file (which it was) then you get the slightly different error
Cannot find JRI native library!
Please make sure that the JRI native library is in a directory listed in java.library.path.
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: [CURRENT DIR]\jri.dll: Can't find dependent libraries
With those two things set correctly (and no hs_pid* files being generated) I found the problem to be the lack of R_HOME in run.bat. Adding
set R_HOME=C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15.0\
fixed it, and now it all seems to work for me. I did not need to add --save, --no-save or --vanilla to the script. Also, it had 'runtest' hardcoded, so ./run.bat runtest2 will not DWYM.
Short answer: The Windows run.bat script was broken (whereas the Linux 'run' script was correct out of the box).
I got the same problem while working with rJava, Windows 7 64 bit.
And here is the solution.
Added -Djava.library.path="${env_var:PATH}" in eclipse -> Project -> Run As -> Run Configuration -> Arguments.
And make sure System.getProperty("java.library.path") is pointing to jri.dll
I spent lot of time on this issue, so feel free to ask any questions ;)
The below error can be due to two paths not set, one is r.dll not found or/and jri.dll not found. Make sure system path includes for 32 bit systems
%R_HOME%\bin;%R_HOME%\bin\i386;%R_HOME%\library\rJava\jri\i386
Also make sure install.packages("rJava") plugin is installed from R console
Cannot find JRI native library!
Please make sure that the JRI native library is in a directory listed in java.library.path.
