Question

[jack]

Hi,

I have problem with installing biomaRt for R version 3.0.2 in windows. does anyone has idea what would I do?

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Sky/Documents/R/win-library/3.0’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning message:
package ‘biomaRt’ is not available (for R version 3.0.2)

You are using biocLite() to install and you have run the following command?

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")

As Neilfws states, you'll want to use biocLite(). It installed fine for me with R 3.0.2 using the following code:

> library("BiocInstaller")
> biocLite("biomaRt")

you should use boicLite("biomaRt") instead of install.package("biomaRt")
