Hi,
I am trying to transfer an S4 object from a machine working with CentOS 7.2 / R 3.4.3 to
another one running Linux Mint 19 / R 3.6.0. If I save the object using saveRDS in
obj.rds, loadRDS returns an "unknown input format" error on my Linux Mint
machine. Interestingly enough, obj.rds loads just fine in a 3rd machine running Windows
Server 2012 / R 3.4.3. I tried also using save and load and various values of the ascii
and compression arguments, but still no cigar...
Do you have recommendations on how to successfully transfer my object to my
Linux Mint machine?
Normally such a transfer should just work. Reasons why it might not:
- The error is being triggered by a contributed package somehow. Do
contributed package versions match?
- There's no loadRDS function in base R, the base R function is
readRDS. If that's not just a typo above, then the loadRDS function
you're using doesn't work. Use the base package functions instead.
- There's a bug in R.
In any case, we can't do much to help you without a reproducible example.
