No console output in R

I'm using a script that contains some tryCatch-commands and creats a PNG-plot. When I run this script and an error occurs, the error handler works fine (including printing the error). But afterwards I can't print anything in the console, even print("text") does not show any results. However, error messages are still shown (e.g., printing geewd() results in the error message Error: Could not find function "geewd"). Any idea what's the problem?

(Because of the complexity of the script, unfortunately, I can't provide a MWE.)

I see this problem when a sink() has been opened but not closed, probably because an error occurred before the closing code was reached.

Try this to plug an open sink:

sink(NULL)
