Dear Listers: I am trying to use Bioconductor doing some microarray analysis. When I installed it via following commands in R, I got the following warnings: source("http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite() cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found' Warning: unable to access index for repository http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/data/experiment/stable/bin/window s/contrib/2.1 Warning message: cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found' Warning: unable to access index for repository http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/omegahat/stable/bin/windows/contr ib/2.1 Warning message: cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found' Warning: unable to access index for repository http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/lindsey/stable/bin/windows/contri b/2.1 dependency 'golubEsets' is not available The configuration of my R and machine is > R.version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major 2 minor 1.1 year 2005 month 06 day 20 language R In my opinion, it is due to the HTTP connection error since I tried to put those links in IE and they got HTTP 404 errors. I am really interested, for example, using golubEsets so I installed it from here: http://www.bioconductor.org/data/experimental/html/golubEsets.html However, I am interested in knowing what about the other warnings... As important as above, are there any good online materials covering using bioC and R in analyzing microarray/bioinformatics data, esp. via data mining approaches? Thank you very much!

Something needs fixing and we will get on it :-) I recommend that you install the latest released version of R (2.2.0) and then repeat the biocLite routine. This will allow you to install the latest released versions of Bioconductor packages which are sure to have bug fixes and other improvements. + seth

Hi, There: (Thanks for Seth's help; after upgrading, it is fine now though the golobEsets has to be manually installed). could anyone answer my second question from the original post? " As important as above, are there any good online materials covering using bioC and R in analyzing microarray/bioinformatics data, esp. via data mining approaches? " Thank you very much!

When it comes to data mining/exploratory data analysis with R, there are several books covering different aspects of the topic. You can also pick some of the online documentation, like for example http://www.cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/usingR.pdf Hoping this helps, L. > Thank you very much! > > Best, > > Weiwei > > On 10/24/05, Seth Falcon <sfalcon at="" fhcrc.org=""> wrote: >> On 24 Oct 2005, sfalcon at fhcrc.org wrote: >> > Thanks for the report.
