KNIME: R integration: Execute failed: Exception occured during R initialization.

@mlauber71,

once more thx for bringing this to my attention.
The documentation is in its final throes and will hopefully published early next week.

@dyagaty,
I asumme you have RServe 1.7.3 installed right now. You can check this by starting R from your terminal and then typing

> library(“Rserve”)

sessionInfo()

If this is the case please run

> remove.packages(“Rserve”)

install.packages(“Rserve”,“http://rforge.net”)

If you see the following errror

cannot find -lssl

You could try running this script

However, this will not work if on your console you cannot type

R

to open R. In this case you have to adapt the R calls according to your R location or expose the path containing the R executable

If you need help let me know.

Mark

P.S. Don’t try to install RServe via Anaconda as this installs 1.7.3
