How to install "org.Hs.eg.db" package in R v3.5.1?

I've just installed the latest R version 3.5.1, and tried to install the "org.Hs.eg.db" package. But I receive this error when I ran the code: 

> install.packages("org.Hs.eg.db")
Installing package into 'C:/Users/ashley/Documents/R/win-library/3.5'
(as 'lib' is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
  package 'org.Hs.eg.db' is not available (for R version 3.5.1)

Does anyone know what is wrong with this?

I was able to install the "org.Hs.eg.db" package in older R version 3.5.0.

Thank you very much.

Ashley.

Problem: I have faced similar error

install.packages("org.Mm.eg.db") Warning in install.packages : package ‘org.Mm.eg.db’ is not available for this version of R

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere, see the ideas at https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages

Solution:

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))

  • install.packages("BiocManager")

BiocManager::install("org.Hs.eg.db")

org.Hs.eg.db is a Bioconductor package, and from the error message, it seems that this package is not included in the default repository where R searches.

Bioconductor's install guide says you should use the script they provide to install packages:

Use the biocLite.R script to install Bioconductor packages.

And the package's install guide lists the exact commands you need to install org.Hs.eg.db package:

source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("org.Hs.eg.db")
