Java 7.51 broke rJava?

Hi,

after I updated Java to 7.51 on my Windows system, rJava can no longer load:

 > library(rJava)
Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:
call: fun(libname, pkgname)
error: No CurrentVersion entry in Software/JavaSoft registry! Try 
re-installing Java and make sure R and Java have matching architectures.
Error: package or namespace load failed for ?rJava?

My session info:

Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thanks.

Have you investigated the suggestion in the error message yet?  "Architecture" means 32bit vs 64bit...

Thanks for the suggestion, Jeff!  As it turned out, the automatic Java 
update installed the 32-bit version of Java for me.  Installing the 
64-bit version fixed this.

Regards,

Yury
