I installed the rJava package but it's showing the following issue while using the library

library("rJava") Error: package or namespace load failed for 'rJava': .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details: call: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) error: unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.4/Resources/library/rJava/libs/rJava.so': dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.4/Resources/library/rJava/libs/rJava.so, 6): Library not loaded: @rpath/libjvm.dylib Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.4/Resources/library/rJava/libs/rJava.so Reason: image not found

    You aren't alone, this is a common problem on macOS. You need to run the following in R: `dyn.load('/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_131.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/server/libjvm.dylib')`. You'll have to actually go to `/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines` to determine what your exact version of the `.jdk` is, but that always works for me. You can put this in your `.Rprofile` to be loaded at startup if you use `rJava` often.
