Hello there, (note: these problems are unrelated one to previous ones I reported and where I run with Windows NT). I have installed R on a SUN Solaris. Apart from the fact that I didn't have latex and couldn't make dvi or pdf documentation, all went well. (Ah, and there's no browser in the path, but i don't need interactive help on that machine). R works fine and examples coming with the documentation also work. Then I installed the newest bioconductor via source("URL...") and getBioC(). From what I can see in the log, only the XML an Rgraphviz failed to compile (didn't find include files). If I understood the dependencies right, then these packages are not absolutely needed. When I now try to load Biobase, I get: ------------------- snip ------------------ > library(Biobase) Error in bindingIsLocked(m2, where) : not an environment Error in library(Biobase) : .First.lib failed ------------------- snap ------------------ Or any other library (affy, maNorm, etc.) as they need Biobase. Now, I skimmed the archives and didn't find that error. Any hint? Salut, Bastien -- Bastien Chevreux - DSM Nutritional Products Bioinformatics VFB - Bldg. 203 / 113a P.O.

You need to use the devel versions of BioC with R-1.8.0 Jim James W. MacDonald Affymetrix and cDNA Microarray Core University of Michigan Cancer Center 1500 E.
