Loading R package xlsx: Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace()
<p>I tried to load the R package xlsx:</p>

<pre><code>library('xlsx')
</code></pre>

<p>But I got the following error:</p>

<pre><code>Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'xlsx', details:
  call: .jinit()
  error: Cannot create Java virtual machine (-1)
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘xlsx’ was built under R version 3.2.3 
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘xlsx’
</code></pre>

<p>My R-session aborts when I try .jinit()</p>

<p>Any help is much appreciated.</p>

<p><strong>Edit:</strong></p>

<p>I updated R Studio to the newest version and executed </p>

<pre><code>update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE)
</code></pre>

<p>but still got the following error:</p>

<pre><code>Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'xlsx', details:
  call: .jinit()
  error: Cannot create Java virtual machine (-1)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘xlsx’
</code></pre>

<p><strong>Edit 2:</strong></p>

<p>This question is still unsolved. 
As Pascal in the comments below suggested I looked for the windows equivalent command of:</p>

<pre><code>R CMD javareconf
</code></pre>

<p>After many hours of searching I still didn't found it. </p>
