Dear Bioconductor team, 

I am trying to upgrade my Bioconductor from version 3.0 to 3.1, but I've got an error, any suggestions?

That definitely shouldn't be happening. We'll take a look and try to fix it. In the meantime, try removing BiocInstaller.

remove.packages("BiocInstaller")

Quit R then start a new R session with R --vanilla and then do:

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")

Then update all your pacakges with:

biocLite()

I'd like to report the same problem as Liobin- I upgraded to R 3.2 yet when I try to upgrade I get the following:

> source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")

> biocLite("BiocUpgrade")

Error: Bioconductor version 3.0 cannot be upgraded with R version 3.1.0

Here's some more info:

Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated- I'm looking forward to upgrading to Bioconductor 3.2.

Did you try Dan's solution (which I've updated to make it clearer that you need to explicitly remove BiocInstaller)?

I did remove BiocInstaller() just prior to the entering the commands I listed.

Please show your entire commands. Please make sure that there are no additional 'BiocInstaller' packages installed. Here's what happens for me. Again, please provide the complete transcript

Hi Martin:

Thank you for your response, which helped me find the problem. This was an issue of having another BiocInstaller/ lurking in a second R library. Once I deleted the offending second package the above instructions worked like a charm, and now I'm running Bioconductor v 3.2.

> source("http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")

Bioconductor version 3.2 (BiocInstaller 1.19.5), ?biocLite for help

Thanks again,

Taylor

Just run the below script to get latest version of R

However before installing the R it is advisable to remove the installed r

To run the script you have to make the script executable

type the command

chmod +x script name

then run in terminal ./script

 

### Script to update R
### -----------------------------------------

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install g++-4.9

## Copy the below link to
#sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo echo "deb http://cran.stat.nus.edu.sg/bin/linux/ubuntu trusty/">>/etc/apt/sources.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r-base
sudo apt-get install r-base-dev

I am getting a similar error, after attempting to upgrade to BioC 3.1. Please could I have any help or any insights ? Thanks !

Are there multiple installed versions of BiocInstaller (repeat remove.packages("BiocInstaller") several times, until R reports that there are no additional copies. If you would like to use google hangout and invite me (mtmorgan at fredhutch dot org) in the next 30 minutes then we can work through this together.

Bogdan and I worked through this. Bogdan's .libPaths() contained a personal directory, and several  system-wide directories

> .libPaths()
[1] "/home/bogdan/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.2"
[2] "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"                 
[3] "/usr/lib/R/site-library"                       
[4] "/usr/lib/R/library"

remove.packages("BiocInstaller") remove the package from the personal directory, but failed (silently) to remove the package from the site-wide directory, where Bogdan does not have write permissions. So next time Bogdan tried source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R"), the script found the (old) version of the package in the site-wide directory. The solution was to remove the package from Bogdan's directory, and then force an installation of the correct version of BiocInstaller. We did this using

install.packages("BiocInstaller", repos="http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/bioc")

where '3.1' is the version of Bioconductor we wanted to install. This installed BiocInstaller in Bogdan's personal directory.

Probably Bogdan's system administrator should update BiocInstaller to match the version of R in use, or remove BiocInstaller from the system library so that users can choose to use either of the two versions of Bioconductor that will eventually be compatible with R-3.2.* (Both the current version of Bioconductor, version 3.1, and the version to be released in October, version 3.2, are compatible with the R-3.2.* series).
