Hi, I have downloaded 450k data and want to read in minfi. When i downloaded the file it comes with csv, txt and excel files, but it does not have any idat files.

I have tried to read the csv file in minfi according to the tuitorial. But i get below error. Did anybody have the same problem and knows how to solve this? Thank you in advance!

targets <- read.metharray.sheet("/home/GSE36278/", pattern="sample.csv") ##The csv file had been renamed [read.metharray.sheet] 

Found the following CSV files: [1] "/home/GSE36278/sample.csv" 

Warning messages: 

1: In FUN(X[[i]], ...) : Could not infer array name for file: /home/GSE36278//sample.csv 

2: In FUN(X[[i]], ...) : Could not infer slide name for file: /home/GSE36278//sample.csv

rgSet <- read.metharray.exp(targets=targets)

Error in read.metharray.exp(targets = targets) : 

  Need 'Basename' amongst the column names of 'targets'

I had to create the sample sheet myself today because my data came without it and I realized that in my case the read function did actually not use the Basename column but inferred the filenames by pasting slide + "_" + array together and then + "Red"/"Grn". So without those 2 columns which should be the basenames (withoug _Red/Grn) it did not work.

Example: One of my basenames was 4841860009C so I had to put 4841860009 under $Slide and $C under Array. The filenames were accordingly 4841860009CRed.idat and 4841860009C_Grn.idat

Best wishes

Um...the error shows that the program can not infer slides and array information from your csv file, thus it may can not form correct "Basename" of IDAT file loading.

So maybe you can paste part of your csv file here, I suspect the problem is missing or modified "SentrixID" and "SentrixPosition" in your csv file. They are related to basename finding.

Hi,

Thanks for the comment! However, my problem is there is no basenames itself in the first place!

The content you posted is the array design, not the actually measurements. You should not have to read this file in.
