I would like to install rhdf5 in a secured, Windows-based server
environment that (for security reasons) cannot access outside servers
or
websites. As the environment is "offline" in this sense, I cannot use
the
recommended procedure involving biocLite.R and the bioconductor
repository
directly for installing the rhdf5 package.
I can upload specific files to the offline environment, but not
install
software directly myself (lack write-access to the relevant folders on
the
server where software is located). However, the system administrator
has
placed a mirror of CRAN in the "offline" environment, and installing
new
CRAN packages in R is unproblematic.
For rhdf5 I have tried:
1. Install rhdf5 directly: Uploading the rhdf5_2.8.0.tar.gz file and
installing it from the package manager in RStudio. This gives the
message
that "ERROR: dependency 'zlibbioc' is not available for package
'rhdf5'"
2. Installing required packages that rhdf5 relies on: Uploading and
installing zlibbioc in the same manner. This gives me a warning that
"This
package has a configure script. It probably needs manual
configuration" -
followed by a compilation error (see full R-message here
<http: screencast.com="" t="" 2btxvwuz="">).
I am unable to figure out what the "status 127" error message refers
to, or
if this is even a sensible way to proceed.
Has anyone got a simple solution that I can implement or (if needed) a
more
technical solution I can forward to my system administrator?
Sincerely,
Ole Rogeberg
