Well, perhaps you could try again and let us know if you see the same error. + seth

I don't know if it's related, but getBioC.R now has a "groupName" specification.

Thanks everyone. I tried both suggestions, still getting error message. Both with BiocLite() (same message -- "Error in .readRDS(pfile) : cannot read workspace version 0 written by R 2.1.1; need R 1.4.0 or newer") and if I use: getBioC(groupname="affy") (which gives the error message ("Error in install.packages(pkgs = c("affy", "affydata", "affyPLM", "annaffy", : unused argument(s) (groupname ...)") any takers?

It's "groupName", not "groupname". This was my idiot error in the previous note, that and the misspelling of James MacDonald's name... Still, it looks like something else might be wrong, possibly with the R installation somehow? Anyhow, I hope that groupName works for you. Take care, jon b

Seems pretty odd - like you have a defective version of something. What happens if you try to install some other package via the menu (I'm guessing you are on windows - you might want to consult the posting guide for the sorts of information that is helpful e.g. the output of sessionInfo). And should that work, what happens if you download affy and try to install from a local zip file?
