    CummeRbund installation error on Linux Redhat Enterprise6.5

    I am trying to install cummeRbund in R (version 3.1.0) on a 64-bit Linux Redhat Enterprise 6.5 and I am getting errors similar to those posted on this thread. However, when I try to install several of the packages suggested, I get the response: 1. already installed or 2. no package is available. Specifics below:

    When I try to install CummeRbund:

    $ sudo R

      Chris,

      I think the package names for RHEL are as below. I assume you have access to a redhat satellite for installation.

      zlib
      libxml2-devel
      zlib-devel
      openssl-devel

        Thank you for the quick reply. I do have access to redhat satellite for installation. I tried installing the packages, 2 were already installed and the other 2 installed sucessfully.

        I tried to install CummeRbund again and received the following errors:

          Can you see if "curl-config" is installed on your server?

          Code:
          $ which curl-config
          You may need to install the curl-devel library.

              This site might help. I ended up needing to install curl for my Debian machine and I don't have root permissions. So I went ahead and loaded my user directory up with a bunch of programs.

              This was the command that I ended up using to install it. (From ~/src/curl-7.38.0):
              configure --prefix=/home/{user}/bin/curl-7.38.0 CPPFLAGS="-I/home/{user}/bin/libcurl/include"
              make
              make install


              One last trick,

              export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/{user}/bin/curl-7.38.0/lib

              (There's a whole long story behind this one for the non-C programmer)


              Then going back into R I was able to install RCurl and it found everything! Then all the other packages of course that follow.

                Hi all,
                I have two groups. One group has 3 varieties (which presumably have extreme low expression for all the genes) and another group has also 3 varieties (which have extreme high expression for all the genes). Now, I want to know how many genes (with the average value of each gene taken from 3 varieties) between these 2 groups are significant? And what are those genes? Please can you tell me what is the appropriate code to be used in cummerbund?

                Thank you,

                Mahbuba Siddiqua

                  Hello,
                  first of all thanks to all the people for posting so many solutions and help messages for starters like me! This is the first time I write, but I read many of the threads!

                  My problem is comparable to the first problems:

                  > library(cummeRbund)
                  Error in library(cummeRbund) : there is no package called ‘cummeRbund’

                  I installed the recommended packages in this forum:

                  $ sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
                  $ sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

                  Then, re-installed cummeRbund:
                  > source('http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R')
                  > biocLite('cummeRbund')

                  The process was different compared to the process before installing those packages, but the final message was the same, including:

                  Warning messages:
                  1: In install.packages(pkgs = pkgs, lib = lib, repos = repos, ...) :

                  2: In install.packages(pkgs = pkgs, lib = lib, repos = repos, ...) :

                  'nlme', 'nnet', 'rpart', 'spatial', 'survival'

                  Has anyone any more brilliant ideas to get this working? I would be really, really thankful!

                    See bold text above. Is this a personal machine or you are on a server without necessary privileges to install software?

                      (wow fast response, thanks! )

                      This is a machine at work for which I am the only user and I have admin rights. In fact I could install all programmes I needed so far (contrary to other machines at work for which I needed to call IT for installations).

                        What OS are you using (should have asked before)? Was the original R install done using a different account? Are you using latest R available?

                          Ubuntu. And yes, the original R was installed with a different account because it was "here" when I arrived. It is version 3.0.2. Shall I uninstall and install again?
                          thank you so much...

                            Since you are the only user on this machine (and have admin rights) you could recursively change the ownership (chown -R) of the directories in question to your account and then try the install. Make sure the group matches as well.

                            Current R is 3.1.3, so installing the latest version is an option as well.

                              Good morning! Thank your for the last post. That makes a lot of sense. I did not manage, though, but this is only due to my lack of IT knowledge. I appreciate a lot your help, I will keep on trying myself reading a bit more and (hopefully not but) I may come back soon!
                              Thank you once again!

                                It is simple actually. Find our where your R is installed?

                                Code:
                                $ which R
                                Then find out which account owns that top level directory

                                Code:
                                $ ls -l /path_on_your_server/r-3.x
                                Then do

                                Code:
                                $ chown -R your_acct_name /path_on_your_server/r-3.x
                                Make sure the group is also changed to match yours

                                Code:
                                $ chgrp -R your_group /path_on_your_server/r-3.x
                                You should be able to upgrade the libraries at that point.

                                  Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

                                  Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

                                  There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
