Loading BioConductor library "GO.db" fails

Question

I have a problem loading the BioConductor package "GO.db". It fails with the error:

Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'GO.db', details:
call: sqliteNewConnection(drv, ...) error: RS-DBI driver: (could not connect to dbname: unable to open database file ) Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘GO.db’

I am working in Windows 8, using R 3.1.0 and Bioconductor 2.14 (latest versions).

Please help.

Answer 1

I had the same issue. Try to reinstall R into another directory (another disc). It helped me.
