I cannot require arrayQualityMetrics although I've downloaded it. What should I do?

library("arrayQualityMetrics")
# Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘arrayQualityMetrics’:
#.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'httr', details:
# call: options()
#error: Value of SET_STRING_ELT() must be a 'CHARSXP' not a 'NULL'

I think the most critical looking problem is shown by the part that says:

# Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘arrayQualityMetrics’:
#.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'httr', details:
# call: options()
#error: Value of SET_STRING_ELT() must be a 'CHARSXP' not a 'NULL'

This suggests to me that there's something wrong with the httr package, which is in turn preventing you loading arrayQualityMetrics.

The first thing I would try is to make sure I've got a working copy of httr by installing the package again using install.packages("httr").

Then restart R and try library("arrayQualityMetrics") again.
