I have deployed an application. I use many bioconductor R packages. Locally the application works fine but not fine when deployed online (I guess affy and simpleaffy R packages are not working properly). I get a warning message on using

ReadAffy(filename)

Warning in install.packages(cdfname, lib = lib, repos = biocinstallRepos()

followed by an error message

Error in install.packages: unable to install packages

The function you're using is trying to use an 'annotation' package describing a microarray chip. The package is currently not installed, so it tries to install it. Unfortunately, the library location where the package is to be installed is not writable, probably because it is an administrative or user account. If this is a web application, then probably this is the right thing to do -- don't let user interactions with the software cause more-or-less arbitrary interactions on the server, including writing to (hence removing!) installed software.

There are several options. You could try to install some or all the 'chip' annotation packages, e.g., from here things like hgu95av2*. You could could log errors like the one above and then as a sufficiently privileged user install the necessary packages manually and tell the user to 'try again'. You could use the environment variable R_LIBS_USER to point to an (existing) world-writable directory, so that when R tries to install the chip packages it installs them at that location; likely you'd monitor the location and periodically update your system-wide installation to include those files.

Thanks Martin Morgan. Somehow I managed to get rid of the error by installing some other bioconductor packages, but the application gets blur (does not proceed) after processing the first file. As you can see in the below session logs that one file with 54675 ids is processed.

Again coming back to you. I have many functionalities in my application including processing raw data of different platforms such as Affymetrix, Codelink, Illumina. I can successfully process raw data of Codelink and Illumina. But going through a hard time to make functionality of processing Affymetrix to work. The processing stops before doing anything.

When I run the application locally, it works smooth. But after deployment on shiny server, the processing of Affymetrix does not work. I wounder If it is a bug or something seriously is going wrong.

In addition I get warning :

To be honest, I feel there is no issue with your code (if you do not get any error message). The issue is on the server side i.e shinyapps server.

To be honest, I feel there is no issue with your code (if you do not get any error message). The issue is on the server side i.e shinyapps server. I would like to suggest to have a look on the setting in your account for size of application. For free users, the size is limited to 1 GB. As per your recent comment, the application works fine for many other functionalities. Kindly check if you are using large data files when your application stops. I guess your application stops because of large size. Try by supplying small size data files. I hope it should work.
