Hi Peng, I have no problems building this, but my sessionInfo() looks a little more current than yours: R version 2.9.1 Patched (2009-06-29 r48872) x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu locale: LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_US .UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC_N AME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDENTI FICATION=C attached base packages: character(0) other attached packages: [1] makecdfenv_1.22.0 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] affy_1.22.0 affyio_1.12.0 base_2.9.1 [4] Biobase_2.4.1 graphics_2.9.1 grDevices_2.9.1 [7] methods_2.9.1 preprocessCore_1.6.0 stats_2.9.1 [10] tools_2.9.1 utils_2.9.1 So you might want to run update.packages(). You can see some nice examples of this by looking in the manual for update.packages or on our website here: http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/install/ Please let us know if you have other questions or concerns, Marc Peng Yu wrote: > Here is the session info when the package makecdfenv is loaded. > > >> sessionInfo("makecdfenv") >> > R version 2.9.1 (2009-06-26) > x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu > > locale: > LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_ US.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC _NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDEN TIFICATION=C > > attached base packages: > character(0) > > other attached packages: > [1] makecdfenv_1.22.0 > > loaded via a namespace (and not attached): > [1] affyio_1.8.1 base_2.9.1 Biobase_2.0.1 graphics_2.9.1 > [5] grDevices_2.9.1 methods_2.9.1 stats_2.9.1 tools_2.9.1 > [9] utils_2.9.1 > > > On Tue, Aug 4, 2009 at 2:58 PM, Peng Yu<pengyu.ut at="" gmail.com=""> wrote: > >> Here is it. >> >> >>> sessionInfo() >>> >> R version 2.9.1 (2009-06-26) >> x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu >> >> locale: >> LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en _US.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;L C_NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDE NTIFICATION=C >> >> attached base packages: >> [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base >> >> >> On Tue, Aug 4, 2009 at 2:39 PM, Robert Gentleman<rgentlem at="" fhcrc.org=""> wrote: >> >>> Please give your sessionInfo as requested in the posting guide. >>> >>> It looks like you might have mixed versions (or old versions) so you could >>> check and update if so, before coming back to the list. >>> >>> Peng Yu wrote: >>> >>>> Hi, >>>> >>>> I downloaded MoGene-1_0-st-v1.r3.cdf from >>>> >>>> http://www.affymetrix.com/products_services/arrays/specific/mouse gene_1_st.affx#1_4 >>>> >>>> Then, I run the following command in R. >>>> >>>> library("makecdfenv") >>>> >>>> make.cdf.package("~/download/MoGene-1_0-st-v1.r3.unsupported-cdf /MoGene-1_0-st-v1.r3.cdf", >>>> species="Mus_musculus") >>>> >>>> But I got the following error. >>>> >>>> Error in isCDFXDA(file.path(path.expand(cdf.path), filename)) : >>>> VECTOR_ELT() can only be applied to a 'list', not a 'character' >>>> Calls: make.cdf.package -> make.cdf.env -> isCDFXDA -> .Call >>>> Execution halted >>>> >>>> Can somebody let me what the problem is?
