Question

[yzfmonster]

Dear experts!

I had no problem downloading the following packages when I had version 3.0.7 last weekend, but I upgraded to 3.3.3 now.

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("DESeq2")
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("edgeR")
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("limma")
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("Biobase")

and now I can not download the same things. Any help appreciated! Many thanx

OK it seems that the problem is bioconductor version so I tried to install bioconductor by

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

But this is what I get.

'biocLite.R' failed to install 'BiocInstaller', use 'install.packages("BiocInstaller",
  repos="https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.4/bioc")' or 'install.packages("BiocInstaller", repos="http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.4/bioc")'

What is the error you get when you try to install the package.

Thanks for reply. I get many warnings and error message.

Thanks for posting your own solution to follow up!

You may have installed R without support for https. How did you update it? Which operating system?

[yzfmonster]

I still have to remove s from https. Thank you

[Giovanni M Dall'Olio]

If the same command does not work with https and work with http, then it is that you didn't install with support for https. I could help you more if you explained how you installed R and which operating system.

I modified your post with code formatting for readability. You can do the same, by just selecting the text you want to format and clicking on the 101010 button. Please take this into account for your posts in the future.

Thank you for fixing my messages. Could you please explain what/where 101010 button is? Thank you again.
