I am running R on a corporate Windows XP SP2 machine on which I do not
have
administrator privileges or access to most settings in Control Panel.
R is
installed from my limited user account. The version of the JVM I have
installed is perhaps best described as antique:
> system(paste("java -version"),show.output.on.console=T)
java version "1.4.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-b21)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-b21, mixed mode)
The HTML help search applet has worked for all versions of R up to and
including 2.6.0, but in 2.6.1 the java applet is not initialised
("Applet
SearchEngine notinited"). I have checked Appendix D of the admin &
installation manual, and the test java applet referred to does not
load,
but the web page says that java 1.4.2 is required. Other java applets
do run
in the browser, including R 2.6.0 HTML help search, so I presume java
is
enabled.
Has something changed from 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 that may require JVM > 1.4.1?
If
so, I can use that information to request an upgrade of my JVM.
