R: Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...)
Solution 1
I had a similar issue with rgdal
on Ubuntu. Re-installing the package was enough to getting it working again.
$ sudo R
> install.packages("rgdal")
> quit()
$ exit
Solution 2
What is .libPaths()
giving you as the output?
I encountered the same problem using the latest update today (R 3.3.1 for MacOS X). My R installation seemed to crash after updating it. My solution was simply to remove the lib directories from the file system and reinstall R:
rm -rf /Users/johann/Library/R/3.3/library
sudo rm -rf Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library
Hope this helps...

I have worked now for some time on an R project in my office's desktop computer, but need to carry the scripts with me while on travel. I copied everything into my laptop and did some changes to the code. Alas, when trying to compile (following the exact same procedure I was using in my desktop computer), the following error:
$ R CMD INSTALL --no-multiarch --with-keep.source coala * installing to library ‘/home/my_pc/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3’ * installing *source* package ‘coala’ ... ** libs make: Nothing to be done for `all'. installing to /home/my_pc/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/coala/libs ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ** installing vignettes ** testing if installed package can be loaded Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared object '/home/my_pc/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/coala/libs/coala.so': /home/my_pc/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/coala/libs/coala.so: undefined symbol: _ZSt24__throw_out_of_range_fmtPKcz Error: loading failed Execution halted ERROR: loading failed * removing ‘/home/my_pc/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/coala’ * restoring previous ‘/home/my_pc/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/coala’
Both computers have the same Ubuntu but different R version. Also, I have to mention that I am working in two libraries at the same time and that the accompanying library update without problems, which makes this error message more puzzling. I have checked answers that may be related to this question, but can't figure out how to apply their solutions:
R: error installing packages UBUNTU - Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared object Got message unable to load shared object stats.so when R starts
Is there a way to solve this problem? Which may be the cause? What is the undefined symbol
_ZSt24__throw_out_of_range_fmtPKcz

elcortegano about 6 yearsThis solution also worked for me on a GNU/Linux system

Jeff Bezos over 2 yearsThis will delete every package you've ever download in R
