I used the rsconnect package in RStudio on a Windows 10 computer to deploy the app called 'spatialepisim'. Deployment was a success as you will see in the below message:

When I open the deployed app on a browser and upload an Excel file for seeddata and select the country: Czech Republic from the dropdown and run the simulation for 5 timesteps the app crashes. On shinyapps.io I found the below Logs
