Hi, I am getting this error for the ideogram track : Error in .local(.Object, ...) : Failed to obtain 'hguid' cookie Calls: IdeogramTrack ... browserSession -> new -> initialize -> initialize -> .local Execution halted Command : ideogram <- IdeogramTrack(genome = "mm10", chromosome = "chr6" , background.title = "black") The commands runs fine locally, but gives an error on server. I suspect it might be internet connection problem. Does Gviz needs some particular ports to be open to connect to UCSC? Please help. Thanks, Sid This email may have a PROTECTIVE MARKING, for an explanation please see: http://www.mrc.ac.uk/About/Informationandstandards/Documentmarkin g/index.htm [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

First: please provide the output from `sessionInfo()` after you've loaded the Gviz library on the machine that is failing. Second: you can, perhaps, test a general internet access problem by seeing if you can "fetch" the main google.com page, eg: R> library(RCurl) R> g <- getURL("http://www.google.com") Now take a look at g and see if you're talking with The Internet: R> substr(g, 1, 70) [1] "<html itemscope="\" itemscope\""="" itemtype="\" <a="" href="<a href=" http:="" schema.org"="" rel="nofollow">http://schema.org" rel="nofollow">http://schema.org"" -steve="" --="" steve="" lianoglou="" computational="" biologist="" bioinformatics="" and="" computational="" biology="" genentech="" <="" div="">
