When I show the view "R Help" of the StatEt Eclipse plugin I get following error:

 HTTP ERROR 404

Problem accessing /rhelp/browse/default-workbench/. Reason: 
    The R library of the requested R environment <code>R</code> is not yet indexed. Please run the indexer first to enable R help support.


Powered by Jetty:// 9.4.7.v20170914

=> How do I index the R library to fix the help view?

I use Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2) and R-3.4.3.

I am able to execute R in the Console with Launch type Rterm.

My Environment settings are:

My run configuration settings are:

Instead of using the option "Default R environment" I entered a custom url for the help view: https://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html

  • I didn't experience a similar problem with the current stable version of statet, In Run configuration, edit your R configuration> R console there are a couple of options there are the box checked ? – Cedric Jan 02 '18 at 09:55
  • The inline help of statet is very usefull, try to make it work. – Cedric Jan 02 '18 at 09:56
  • The options are checked, see screenshots in updated question. – Stefan Jan 04 '18 at 09:27
  • If you use Rterm it won't work. You need to install package rj. Have you managed to install it. What system are you running ? – Cedric Jan 04 '18 at 09:46

  • If you write your comment that RJ needs to be used instead of Rterm (and that RJ is not compatible to Java9) as an answer I'll accept it. – Stefan Jan 05 '18 at 09:46
