Hello,

I am trying to generate a dotplot from the enrichment analysis using clusterprofiler, but I keep getting the same error. It worked a week before and isn't working anymore so I'm assuming R updated the function? Is anyone else facing the same issue? I looked up the error and it's usually for an avg function which doesn't help too much. I am following a tutorial listed on this page: https://learn.gencore.bio.nyu.edu/rna-seq-analysis/gene-set-enrichment-analysis/

organism = "org.At.tair.db"

At which step exactly do you get this error?

What is the output of head(sorted_dfx), and head(gse)?

Please note that your code is very confusing, because it seems you are working with data from Arabidopsis. Yet, your call to gseGO uses the argument OrgDb = organism. How is organism defined?

In the next part of your code you rather use the function gseDO on human data... Are you sure you intend do to this in the same analyses?

Lastly, check the help page of the function gseGO (type ?gseGO), because the use of the argument nPerm is not current anymore. Since functionality of the pakage fgsea is nowadays used for GSEA analyses, you should use the argument eps instead.

I apologize for the lack of clarity! I updated the post to reflect some of the questions you posed. I am trying to create the dotplot for arabidopsis genes and not for human data. I defined the organism at the start. Sorted_dfx is a numeric array with TAIR Ids of some genes ordered according to the logFC values. gseGO seems to be working so something seems to be wrong with the dotplot function. Is the dotplot working for you for sample data mentioned here: https://rdrr.io/bioc/enrichplot/man/dotplot.html

Yes, the dotplot worked for me with the sample data!

Yet, I can also not reproduce your error... though I noticed your object gse was not generated according to the code you posted! Because nPerm slot of gse is not empty...! #...nPerm 1e+05 whereas it should be empty when specifying the argument by = "fgsea" (which is actually the default setting) .

Anyway, below find some code + output of enrichGO and gseGO for Arabidsopsis. You should be able tor run everything yourselves as well, and modify settings according to your dataset and needs.
