Failed to install rinchi package

[QizhiSu]

Dear rinchi developer, I failed to install rinchi package. I am using windows 10 64 bit, jdk 11.0.6 (64 bit), and R 3.6.3 (64 bit). below are the code and error I got:

I have checked online for possible reasons causing this error. many of them said JAVA_HOME has not been set properly. however, I have set it properly to my jdk-11.0.6 folder and I don't have problem librarying rJava package.

@rajarshi @sneumann Hi, Could you guys help?

[sneumann]

Hi, looking at the errors I'd like to see confirmation that rJava is indeed installed properly. Can you check the following commands in a fresh R session:

library(rJava)
.jinit()

Yours, Steffen

[QizhiSu]

I have run the two commands, they work fine. see the attachment, please.

[sneumann]

As non-Windows user I am out of ideas. Just one more thing, please copy&paste the output of sessionInfo() after the .jinit call here. If you copy the text, rather than a screenshot, the text can be found via google or github search, which will benefit attracting help. Yours, Steffen

Hi @Sukis123 - sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Unfortunately I don't have a Windows machine to test this. I did try using the Rhub service but it failed to build there (output log) due to an rjava issue.

The only thing I can guess is that it may be related to JAVA_HOME

Maybe @zachcp has some experience with this?

[rajarshi]

So it looks the win-builder service was able to build a Windows package, which I've placed in the repository. Take a look and see if that installs for you (so you don't need to build from sources)

Thanks a lot. it seems that rinchi was trying to load the 32 bit rJava.dll but not the 64 bit one. I have checked that the 64 bit one is available as well.

I have downloaded the rinchi_0.5.zip now. it works fine.

thank you very much.

Closing this issue as it seems to be resolved
