That does clarify for me that you're missing a step: I didn't clearly
follow your description at first.
corrplot expects a correlation matrix, not your original data. You need to
use cor() first.
That's pretty clear in the documentation. See for instance the examples:
data(mtcars)
M <- cor(mtcars)
corrplot(M)
