See also the developer's page about the release schedule.

Release Procedures (including check list for installer)

  1. Misc Folder:
    • CGHTools
    • R installer
    • Rserve
    • Java installer
    • Microsoft C++ 2010 SP1 Redistribute packages, vcredist_x64.exe & vcredist_x86.exe
  2. License file,
    • C:\Installer-2012\ArrayTools-Scripts\V4_3_And_CGH_1_3_RServe_Full\Setup Files\Compressed Files\Language Independent\OS Independent\License.doc. It is a text file.
    • C:\Installer-2012\CGHTools-Scripts\CGH_1_3_Rserve\Setup Files\Compressed Files\Language Independent\OS Independent\License.doc. It is a text file.
  3. License agreement menu, About ArrayTools and About CGHTools menus.
  4. Sample datasets.
  5. ArrayTools: License.doc, Readme.doc.
  6. ArrayTools\Updates: ArrayTools_CurrentVersion.txt.
  7. ArrayTools\Doc: Manual.doc, ManualFrame.doc, Overview of Analysis Tools.doc, Plug-in Manual.doc, StatMethods.doc, Table of Contents.doc, FAQs.pdf.
  8. CGHTools: LICENSE AGREEMENT.doc, Readme.doc
  9. CGHTools\Updates: CGHTools_CurrentVersion.txt.
  10. CGHTools\Doc: CGHManual.doc, CGHManualFrame.doc, Table of Contents.doc.
  11. ArrayTools_UpdateVersion.txt, it will keep on the ArrayTools server.
  12. http://linus.nci.nih.gov/~brb/news.html
  13. Different ArrayTools installers.
    • There are 3 installers: Full, Individual and Update. Main release has no Update installers.
    • Individual installer has no R and no Java installers in the Misc folder. It will detect the required R version (or newer than the required R version). If no required R version or lower, the installation will abort.
    • Update installer has changed files between current and previous freeze folders.
  14. The installers will keep a copy in K:\BRB\ARRAYTOOLS\archive\installers\. Alpha versions will not keep, only Beta versions and release versions will keep on K:.
  15. YD puts the new release online:
    • Create a testing page: http://linus.nci.nih.gov/BRB-ArrayTools_test.html
    • Whats-new-v43b1.doc, Readme.doc, License.doc, Manual.doc
    • Java, R download links
    • Installers: Full, Individual, Update
    • ArrayTools_LatestVersion.txt (no more than 5 items)
    • Sending emails to users about new release need about 3 hours. Only Beta 1 and Stable versions need to send out user emails. Other Beta versions don't send to reduce user emails.

Trouble shooting

'This workbook is currently referenced by another workbook and cannot be closed' when I use VBAObjectManager

  1. uninstall AT & CGHTools
  2. use privilege manager to run installer
  3. use privilege manager to open excel and run VBAObjectManager

Registrition

http://linus.nci.nih.gov/cgi-bin/brb/matchregistration.cgi?email=xxx.gmail.com
http://linus-stage.nci.nih.gov/cgi-bin/brb/matchregistration.cgi?email=xxx.gmail.com

Check update error

BRB-ArrayTools was not able to check for software updates. The server may be down or too slow right now or you may not connect to the internet.

Solution: Check LatestVersion.txt file on server. It becomes one line. Better to change the format when it was uploaded from PC or manually copy the text in linux environment.

Related to Project Path

BRB-ArrayTools is running the batch job for your analysis.
The working path is E:\DASL data related\Direct Hyb samples\BRB analysis with Direct Hyb samples -Project\Fortran\ClassComparison between Normal and Tumors (Fold change 2 x)
Please wait...
Fortan program is running...'E:\DASL' is not recognized as an internal or external comand,
operable program or batch file.

How to Test

  • Test when internet is not available. For example, GO analysis requires downloading GO.db package. BugReport.tar.gz will be generated if there is a problem with GO.db installation.
  • Test special characters (# sign) in the experiment descriptor worksheet. A wrong <ExpDescWkSht> file used by the DHV (dynamic heatmap viewer) was generated. The reason is read.table() forgot to use comment.char() argument. See bugreportDessen project. PS the error was caught in RserveVBA.
  • Test column header contains double quotes (eg: my "GWAS" score). Some analyses like quantitative trait analysis will fail.
  • Test the case gene annotation was not done so gene symbols were not available. (miRNA project) This causes a bug in the class comparison -> IPA output. The GeneID file may miss some gene identifiers. See PreparegGeneHTMLtable.R.
  • Test the case Symbol was used in the first column of gene identifier file. This will result in two 'Symbol' column in Gene annotations worksheet and break the the code in CreateIPAOutput().
  • Extreme number of arrays (eg 3, 10) This is used to test chunking, ...
  • Extreme number of genes.
  • Use non-default options.
  • Analyze one project after another project to see if there is any memory issue.
  • Use unreasonable entry like 1.5 if the value should be less than or equal to 1.
  • Use long path name for project which causes an error when Fortran program was being launched. The wikipedia page said there is a 126 characters limit in interactive mode.
  • Test on fresh machine (no R libraries installed).
  • Data with lots of missing values.
  • Test on a subset of arrays only.

Misc

  • For an old project needs to be converted, the old project folder will be backed up with a new name 'XXXX_ArrayToolsOldProject'.

Good R writing habit

  • Use indentation.
  • Use parenthesis if needed. For example, the following is bad
if (something) DoSomething
else DoAnother
