RStudio crashes on loading tidyverse

takatu.kazusige · October 21, 2018, 3:47am

Hello there. I am using RStudio on Ubuntu. After I have upgraded Ubuntu, RStudio became to be crashed on loading tidyverse. It also freezes on clicking menu item "Global Options".

I reinstalled RStudio, R and all packages, and have the same problem.

Versions

OS: Ubuntu 18.10 desktop
R: 3.5.1 (2018-07-02)
RStudio: 1.1.456

ERROR: message

This sounds the same as the issue here that was posted on GitHub:

github.com/rstudio/rstudio

Emoji in Rmd file causes RStudio to core dump repeatedly

This seems like a serious issue. Something that sounded like the same thing was …reported to me by a participant at the GEOSTAT18 conference where I was lecturing based on these slides: https://github.com/geocompr/geostats_18/blob/master/spatial-tidyverse.Rmd I've just got a fresh install of R/RStudio on Ubuntu 18.04 and when I try to edit the file it crashes R. The reason I think this is serious is that when RStudio is next started, it instantly crashes. You can start RStudio in specific projects with `rstudio myproject` but if it starts in a project where the crash happens, it just crashes again, which could lead to some users uninstalling R. The solution I found was to delete the contents of `~/.rstudio-desktop/`. I think the person who mentioned the issue also did this. ### System details RStudio Edition : Desktop RStudio Version : 1.1.456 OS Version : Ubuntu 18.04 R Version : 3.5.1 ### Steps to reproduce the problem ```bash # in bash wget https://github.com/geocompr/geostats_18/raw/master/spatial-tidyverse.Rmd # --2018-08-27 21:23:35--... # Length: 16956 (17K) [text/plain] # Saving to: ‘spatial-tidyverse.Rmd’ # ... # 2018-08-27 21:23:36 (840 KB/s) - ‘spatial-tidyverse.Rmd’ saved [16956/16956] rstudio spatial-tidyverse.Rmd # load glyph failed err=6 face=0x1efefe0, glyph=2798 # load glyph failed err=6 face=0x1efefe0, glyph=2798 # [1] 32296 floating point exception (core dumped) rstudio spatial-tidyverse.Rmd rstudio # load glyph failed err=6 face=0xf15020, glyph=2798 # load glyph failed err=6 face=0xf15020, glyph=2798 # [1] 32437 floating point exception (core dumped) rstudio ``` ### Describe the problem in detail See above. ### Describe the behavior you expected 1. RStudio should not crash 2. RStudio should at least be able to start next time it's launched I tried various things to enable me to open the file. I tried installing **xaringan**. I tried installing **emojifont**. No luck. I guess there's something in the file that makes RStudio die. ... ## Update I've found the cause: it's the emoji in line 3 of the file - when the offending line was removed it fixes it. I have also submitted a PR that fixes it in our repo: https://github.com/geocompr/geostats_18/pull/2/files I've not merged that change because I think it may be useful as a reproducible example for others to test on.

If so, it should be fixed in the preview release.
