Hi,

When I want to use AnnotationHub, I can access only one record. Before it was working for me as usual but not anymore.

> ah = AnnotationHub()
updating AnnotationHub metadata: retrieving 1 resource
  |======================================================================| 100%
snapshotDate(): 2016-02-23
> ah
AnnotationHub with 1 record
# snapshotDate(): 2016-02-23
# names(): EH1
# $dataprovider: GEO
# $species: Homo sapiens
# $rdataclass: ExpressionSet
# $title: RNA-Sequencing and clinical data for 7706 tumor samples from The C...
# $description: TCGA RNA-seq Rsubread-summarized raw count data for 7706 tum...
# $taxonomyid: 9606
# $genome: hg19
# $sourcetype: tar.gz
# $sourceurl: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE62944
# $sourcelastmodifieddate: NA
# $sourcesize: NA
# $tags: TCGA, RNA-seq, Expression, Count
# retrieve record with 'object[["EH1"]]'

As you can see 'ah' has only one record available. I tried it in a docker instance (bioconductor/release_core) and have the same problem so I don't think it's my installation.

Anyone else has this problem ? Is it a problem of the snapshot ? Has the syntax changed ?

Thanks,

Jean

It must have been a snapshot problem. When I try it now it uses a previous snapshot (Jan 25) and it works as before.

Now I get:

Hi Jean,

This was my fault. I was modifying some records and messed up the db replacement. The new snapshot date should be today 

> ah <- AnnotationHub()
snapshotDate(): 2016-03-03

and all should be well. Let me know if you don't get the updated version.
