Merge multiple .csv files into one

Question

I am aware this question has been asked multiple times, but despite of trying to apply the aforementioned solutions i was not able to solve my little problem:

I have saved all my .csv that i am aiming to merge into one folder:

> file_list <- list.files()
> file_list[]
[1] "SR-einfam.csv"           "SR-garage.csv"           "SR-hotel.csv"           
[4] "SR-IndustrieGewerbe.csv" "SR-mehrfam.csv"          "SR-OffG.csv"  

the I use a do.call tio merge them all. Note that all the files have the same format.

sr.master <- do.call("rbind", lapply(file_list, read.csv,  sep = ";", header = TRUE)) 
names(sr.master)
str(sr.master)

however after inspecting my resulting file I have realized that only the first file has been imported. What causes this problem?

> str(sr.master)
'data.frame':   1941 obs. of  8 variables:

# Get file list
  file_list <- list.files()

# Read all csv files in the folder and create a list of dataframes
  ldf <- lapply(file_list , read.csv)

# Combine each dataframe in the list into a single dataframe
  df.final <- do.call("rbind", ldf)
