Running SparkR through RStudio

I used the link below to learn how to run SparkR through RStudio:

http://blog.danielemaasit.com/2015/07/26/installing-and-starting-sparkr-locally-on-windows-8-1-and-rstudio/

I am having trouble with section 4.5. 

if (nchar(Sys.getenv("SPARK_HOME")) < 1) {
  Sys.setenv(SPARK_HOME = "C:/Apache/spark-2.0.0")
}
library(SparkR, lib.loc = c(file.path(Sys.getenv("SPARK_HOME"), "R", "lib")))
sparkR.session(master = "local[*]", sparkConfig = list(spark.driver.memory = "1g"))

library(SparkR)
sc<-sparkR.session(master = "local")
sqlContext <- sparkRSQL.init(sc)

DF <- createDataFrame(sqlContext, faithful)

Error comes up when I run the DF function: 

Error in invokeJava(isStatic = TRUE, className, methodName, ...) :

    at org.a
In addition: Warning message:
'createDataFrame(sqlContext...)' is deprecated.
Use 'createDataFrame(data, schema = NULL, samplingRatio = 1.0)' instead.
See help("Deprecated")

I can't really tell what the error is and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Try this

Sys.setenv(SPARK_HOME = "C://Apache/spark-2.0.0")

You need to use "//" above.
