Hi Eric, thanks for your further pointer.
I have put a line with load() function just as an illustration of a
bigger project of mine, which appears failing due to load() function
issue.
If I comment out that line my shiny app is working correctly locally
and globally.
otherwise, locally my shiny app is working but not with AWS.
