Good day, I couldn't get a working param object. It never completes the command
param = bpstart(SnowParam(2, manager.hostname = "144.130.152.1", manager.port = 2559)) I obtained the IP address by typing "My IP address" into Google and it gave me the address shown. I used netstat -an and Proto Local Address Foreign Address State TCP 127.0.0.1:2559 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING was one of the results displayed. I have reproduced this problem on another computer with Windows 10. I also tried param = bpstart(SnowParam(2, manager.hostname = "127.0.0.1", manager.port = 2559)) but it doesn't complete. I was able to identify the problem is with the line bpbackend(x) <- do.call(parallel::makeCluster, cargs) So, to summarise, > cargs $`spec` [1] 2 $type [1] "SOCK" $snowlib [1] "C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.0/library/BiocParallel" $master [1] "127.0.0.1" $port [1] 2559 > do.call(parallel::makeCluster, cargs) # Freezes. Should I ask the question on R-devel because it doesn't appear to be specific to Bioconductor ? -------------------------------------- Dario Strbenac University of Sydney Camperdown NSW 2050 Australia _______________________________________________ Bioc-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioc-devel
