Hi Roger, note that since version 0.1-7 of XLConnect Java 1.6 is required - it won't work with Java 1.5. However, the problem you describe is another one. It's most likely related to your Java setup/configuration and therefore independent of XLConnect. You can verify this by running the following statements in R:
library(rJava) .jinit() You should actually see the same error message. What version of rJava are you using and do you have any environment variables like JAVA_HOME or PATH set? Also the output of sessionInfo() could be of interest.
