Hi,

 

I am trying to install Bioconductor software on our server with Red Hat
Linux Enterprise (Server) edition version 4, 32GB Ram and automatic
proxy configuration (http://www.ntu.edu.sg/proxy.pac) setting.

from http://www.bioconductor.org <http://www.bioconductor.org/>  website
but couldn't install.

 

I encounter the following errors highlighted in RED when I try to
download from the website.

 

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

Error in file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) :

        unable to open connection

In addition: Warning message:

unable to connect to 'www.bioconductor.org' on port 80.

 

How do I setup the proxy setting on my LINUX RH4 server.

 

Please guide how we can get rid of these errors.

 

 

Thanks
