Dear Sirs, When trying to install the devel version of Bioconductor on a clean install of R devel I got the following errors: *source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R <http: bioconductor.org="" bioclite.r="">")* *Warning in install.packages :* * package 'BiocInstaller' is not available (for R Under development)* *Installing package into 'C:/Users/lepo/Documents/R/win-library/3.2'* *(as 'lib' is unspecified)* *Warning in install.packages :* * cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found'* *Warning in install.packages :* * cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found'* *Warning in install.packages :* * unable to access index for repository http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc/bin/windows/contrib/3.2 <http: www.bioconductor.org="" packages="" 2.14="" bioc="" bin="" windows="" contrib="" 3.="" 2="">* * package 'BiocInstaller' is available as a source package but not as a binary* *Warning in install.packages :* * package 'BiocInstaller' is not available (for R Under development)* *'biocLite.R' failed to install 'BiocInstaller', use 'install.packages("BiocInstaller",* * repos="http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc <http: www.bioconductor.org="" packages="" 2.14="" bioc="">")'* Next, I tried: *install.packages("BiocInstaller",repos="http://www.bioconductor.org/p ackages/2.14/bioc <http: www.bioconductor.org="" packages="" 2.14="" bioc="">", type="source")* *Installing package into 'C:/Users/lepo/Documents/R/win-library/3.2'* *(as 'lib' is unspecified)* *trying URL 'http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc/src/contrib/BiocInstal ler_1.13.3.tar.gz <http: www.bioconductor.org="" packages="" 2.14="" bioc="" src="" contrib="" biocinstal="" ler_1.13.3.tar.gz="">'* *Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 14183 bytes (13 Kb)* *opened URL* *downloaded 13 Kb* ** installing *source* package 'BiocInstaller' ...* *** R* *** inst* *** preparing package for lazy loading* *** help* **** installing help indices* *** building package indices* *** testing if installed package can be loaded* **** arch - i386* *Bioconductor version 2.14 (BiocInstaller 1.13.3), ?biocLite for help* **** arch - x64* *Bioconductor version 2.14 (BiocInstaller 1.13.3), ?biocLite for help* ** DONE (BiocInstaller)* *The downloaded source packages are in* * 'C:\Users\lepo\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpoRLBWv\downloaded_packages'* I then tried to install the default packages and the Gviz package: *source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R <http: bioconductor.org="" bioclite.r="">")* *Bioconductor version 2.14 (BiocInstaller 1.13.3), ?biocLite for help* *biocLite()* *Error: 'no packages in repository (no internet connection?)' while trying http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc <http: bioconductor.org="" packages="" 2.14="" bioc="">* *biocLite("Gviz")* *Error: 'no packages in repository (no internet connection?)' while trying http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc <http: bioconductor.org="" packages="" 2.14="" bioc="">* Am I doing something fundamentally wrong here? Or is it a Bioconductor issue? I am using Windows 7 64 bits and have no firewall enabled. Several other (non-devel) versions of R and Bioconductor work find on this machine. The problem occurs in both the 64bits and 32bits version of R devel. Thanks for any help!
