“unable to load shared object” when loading the rJava library












0















I apologize in advance for my bad english, i hope that someone can help me.
I have to load an Excel file .xlsx on R, but:



library(xlsx)



Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘rJava’:
.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:
call: inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...)
error: unable to load shared object 'C:/Users/danil/Documents/R/win-library/3.4/rJava/libs/x64/rJava.dll':
LoadLibrary failure: Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.
Error: package ‘rJava’ could not be loaded




So, i tried to install Java, Java SE-Development Kit 10 and Java Runtime Environment 10, 64 bit for both. But, also in this case:



library(rJava)



Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘rJava’:
.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:
call: inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...)
error: unable to load shared object 'C:/Users/danil/Documents/R/win-library/3.4/rJava/libs/x64/rJava.dll':
LoadLibrary failure: Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.




What can i do?

This was happening to me as well (also Windows 10), and the problem with mine was that the environment variable was not set properly. In my case, I had to do



Sys.setenv('JAVA_HOME' = 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_161/')


Just change the folder name to where Java lives in your computer, and let me know if this doesn't work out.
