Package Errors

Package load failed

Matches: package or namespace load failed

WHAT THIS ERROR MEANS

The package exists but couldn't be loaded, usually because one of its dependencies is missing or incompatible.

1. Try reinstalling: install.packages('package', dependencies = TRUE).

2. Check which dependency failed in the full error message.

3. Install the missing dependency separately.

BAD — THIS CAUSES THE ERROR

library(rJava)  # requires Java runtime

GOOD — CORRECT APPROACH

# Install system dependency first, then:
install.packages("rJava", dependencies = TRUE)
