running Rselenium with rsDriver

I'm trying to run RSelenium using the WDMAN package.

library(RSelenium)
library(wdman)
rd <-rsDriver(verbose =TRUE, browser = 'phantomjs')

This gives me an error:

[1] "Connecting to remote server"

Selenium message:org.openqa.selenium.os.CommandLine.find(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;

Error:   Summary: UnknownError
     Detail: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command.
     class: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError
     Further Details: run errorDetails method

I'm running LinuxMint 18.1.

If I run the server with the following it works:

library(RSelenium)
library(wdman)
selServ <- wdman::selenium(verbose = FALSE)

eCap <- list(phantomjs.page.settings.userAgent 
             = "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20120101 Firefox/29.0")

remDr <- remoteDriver(remoteServerAddr = "localhost" 
                      , port = 4444L
                      , browserName = "phantomjs"
                      , extraCapabilities = eCap
)

remDr$open()

I'd rather use rsDriver as it checks for updates. Why is this failing?

This seems to be an issue with the latest version of selenium server (3.1.0). If you try the previous version the error doesn't appear:

rd <-rsDriver(verbose =TRUE, browser = 'phantomjs', version = "3.0.1")

> rd
$client
  browserName                                   id
1   phantomjs 7775b5b8-25de-4699-a171-7fd58c5c5a2a

$server
Process Handle
command   : /tmp/RtmptPZSvk/file2e132997bdf7.sh 
system id : 12240
state     : running

UPDATE:

This is now fixed as of Selenium Server version 3.2.0
