I want to read in an hdf5 file in R, but I can't seem to get it to work. The error I'm getting is:

h<-h5ls(tsdatabase_path)

Error in H5Fopen(file, "H5F_ACC_RDONLY") : HDF5. File accessability. Unable to open file.

where h5ls is a method in rhdf5 and tsdatabase_path is an hdf5 file. I looked at this related question, but the solution did not work:

Error in reading hdf file using h5py package for python

I changed the hdf5 file permissions to -rwxrwxrwx. I also looked into checking whether the hdf5 program had been loaded, and I found this in the README.txt in downloadHDf5 which is part of the rhdf5 package:

"The rhdf5 package will contain a complete installation of the HDF5 C library. No further downloads from HDF5 are necessary."

My R version is 3.3.0 and my rhdf5 version is rhdf5_2.16.0
