[R] Connection to Oracle DB failing from R

[Christofer Bogaso]

Hi,

I am trying to establish a connection to a Oracle DB from R and used below
code which is failing every time I try -

> library(RJDBC)
Loading required package: DBI
> jdbcDriver =JDBC("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver",classPath="ojdbc5.jar")

 *** caught segfault ***
address 0x854961, cause 'memory not mapped'

Traceback:
 1: .jinit(classPath)
 2: JDBC("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver", classPath = "ojdbc5.jar")

Possible actions:
1: abort (with core dump, if enabled)
2: normal R exit
3: exit R without saving workspace
4: exit R saving workspace
Selection:


Below is my session info -
