[rkward-devel] Error report

[Thomas Friedrichsmeier]

Hi!

Thanks for your report. For virtually all bug reports, it is important to know 
the exact version(s) of R and RKWard involved. The easiest way to gather this, 
and further potentially relevant info is pasting the output of

  rk.sessionInfo()

Alternatively, use Help->Report Bug for a template.

This means the backend / embedded R engine has crashed.

In theory, RKWard should not interfere with View() at all. This is simply the 
default R data viewer. So, rather likely, the problem is somewhere in R 
itself. You can try

1) Doing the same in a terminal session of R (outside RKWard). See if you get 
the same crash, there.
2) Try if RKWard's own data viewer does any better:
	rk.edit(dataset)
(Use Edit->Enabled editing to get a read-only view).
3) My first guess is that the "large amount of text" plays a role, here. Try 
if removing / limiting this helps any.

Regards
Thomas
