Hi, I've been experiencing problems installing the affy package (please see output below). I've installed the latest versions of Biobase and affyio already. Thanks very much!!

Can you please try from a clean R session: source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite("affy") If that fails, let us know and include the error message and the output of sessionInfo().

Hi Dorothy, I'm not sure about the smootScatter error. Sometimes these sort of things are sorted out by having compatible versions. Have you tried using biocLite? Do the following: source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite("affy",dependencies=TRUE) This will ensure you get the correct version of affy for your version of R. If you provide the output from the sessionInfo() function, people can tell what versions of software you have and whether they match or not. If possible install the latest R, (currently version 2.10.0) and use biocLite, as described above and also at the bioconductor website: http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/install/ hope that helps, Keith. dorothyc wrote: > Hi, > > I've been experiencing problems installing the affy package (please > see output below).
