Hi, I am curious on how to correctly run System code with R under Ubuntu. I tried to execute below 2 lines of code using system() functions in Ubuntu server, however could not achieve the desired result.
system('Xvfb :10 -ac &') system('export DISPLAY=:10') System parameters: > Sys.info() sysname "Linux" release "4.4.0-128-generic" version "#154-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 25 14:15:18 UTC 2018" nodename "ubuntu-s-2vcpu-4gb-blr1-01" machine "x86_64" login "root" user "root" effective_user "root" Background: I use RSelenium package to perform various testing using web-browser. I have installed firefox to do the same, however to make RSelenium work, it requires display parameter as guided in below link: https://medium.com/@griggheo/running-selenium-webdriver-tests-using-firefox-headless-mode-on-ubuntu-d32500bb6af2 I want to set those parameters through R, each time I start R in Ubuntu server. Appreciate for any pointer.
