Hi,
I have been trying to download GO.db, but it keeps failing with the following message:

My R and Bioconductor seems to be up-to-date (Bioconductor 3.4 (BiocInstaller 1.24.0), R 3.3.2 (2016-10-31)), as is my RSQLite (1.1-2) and AnnotationDbi (1.36.2).
I had seen in one group that biocValid(fix=TRUE) worked for them, but this was not the case for me.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
It sounds like Windows fails to install package from source 'tar.gz', e.g., "GO.db" ; can you map the UNC network drive \\nfvfx... to a windows drive letter, launch R from there, and try again?
Sorry for delay. I only just saw your message. For some reason the header had "0 answers". Yep, it seemed running R on the C drive worked and then transferring the file manually back to \\nfvfx . Thanks for you help Martin.
