Hi all,
I'm using R 2.15.1 under RStudio on a WinXP computer.
This morning as I started up RStudio, I noticed that there was
something wrong with the help database.
I entered and received the following:
??'xls'
#Error in readRDS(file) : unknown input format
writing help.search('xls') returned the same error. a plain help(plot)
worked fine/ Some googling led me to close RStudio, remove the .RData
and .RHistory I was using,
but the same error remained. Another googling suggested that I'd use
the rebuild=T option, so I ran
lapply(rownames(installed.packages()),function(x)help.search('',package=X<-x,rebuild=T))
Now there is no error, but help.search cannot find anything - it seems
as if the database is empty.
Does anyone have experience with a similar error?
Best regards,
Gustaf
