Error in loadNamespace(name)

[martindut]

Hi

I create a docker container that only have FROM databricksruntime/rbase:latest in. I can start the databricks cluster using my container, but nothing in the container works from a R point of view. Even if I run R.Version(), I get the error:

Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called 'htmltools'

Thanks

I think you probably need to install that package first.

I think you probably need to install that package first.

What package? I would have though that rbase will at least have R.Version() available, or am I missing something?

@martindut what DBR version did you choose when creating the cluster (not the DCS base image)

Can you try other DBR versions, maybe 6.x?

You do need htmltools otherwise Databricks Notebooks cannot work. See https://github.com/databricks/containers/blob/master/ubuntu/R/Dockerfile as a minimal example.
