I am trying to install rJava for my R enviroment.
I have tried this
$sudo locate libjvm.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so
$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so /usr/lib/
$sudo R CMD javareconf

Updating Java configuration in /usr/lib/R
Done.
In R side its showing this error
install.packages("rJava")
configure: error: One or more Java configuration variables are not set.
Make sure R is configured with full Java support (including JDK). Run
R CMD javareconf
as root to add Java support to R.
If you don't have root privileges, run
R CMD javareconf -e
to set all Java-related variables and then install rJava.
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘rJava’
* removing ‘’
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘rJava’ had non-zero exit status
I believe this is the cause of the problem I some how installed two java environments and this is interfering with my rjava installation. How can i solve this.
