Fail to install R 3.0 Ubuntu 16.04LTS

[wxp16]

Hello

Before running the package_installation.bash, I tried to install R 3.0.2 on the Ubutu16.04LTS from the source code, but failed. Here is link of installing R3.0.2 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39870825/installing-r-3-0-2-in-ubuntu-16-04
Our Linux was installed in VirtualBox on Windows10

I wanted to ask what Linux OS and R version did you use?

We also used the following command to install R3.5. but couldn't install the R packages

sudo apt install r-base-core

Please advise..
Thanks

Hello,

I've run this on Ubuntu 16.04, using R version 3.4.3 (Kite-Eating Tree). You could try this version of R.

I've also run the pipeline successfully using R 3.2.3, which can be installed using the following commands on Ubuntu 16.04:

wget https://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-3/R-3.2.3.tar.gz
sudo apt-get install libxt-dev --yes
sudo apt-get install default-jre --yes
tar xvf R-3.2.3.tar.gz
cd R-3.2.3/
./configure
make

For installing the R packages, from the samsa2/ home directory, you can run

bash setup_and_test/package_installation.bash

Best,
Sam

Thank you Sam. I have installed R 3.4 and the R packages. The test run went well.
