This seems related to this github issue. Have you tried installing the development version or using DT::renderDataTable() instead of the shiny version?

### Example application *or* steps to reproduce the problem
```R
library(shiny)
ui <- mainPanel(
dataTableOutput("table")
)
server <- function(input, output) {
output$table <- renderDataTable({
head(iris, 2)
})
}
shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
```
### Describe the problem in detail
`dataTableOutput()` produces this error message
And then renders each character on the dataset as a cell
I have tried updating `shiny` and `DT` to the development versions but the issue persist, I have also updated shiny-server to the latest stable version.
