Hi Herve and Marc,

Thanks for your quick response. Below is the addition system info:

GO.db doesn't load in R. When I try it then it hangs for several minutes and prints out the
following error message: 

###############################################
> library(GO.db)
Loading required package: AnnotationDbi
Loading required package: Biobase
Loading required package: tools

Loading required package: DBI
Loading required package: RSQLite
Error in sqliteExecStatement(con, statement, bind.data) :
  RS-DBI driver: (error in statement: database is locked)
Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'GO.db'
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'GO.db'
###############################################


Since GO.db doesn't load in R, there is no sessionInfo() for it, but the shell command
cat /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/GO.db/DESCRIPTION
returns the following message:

###############################################
Package: GO.db

My permissions for GO.sqlite are: 
ls -l /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/GO.db/extdata/GO.sqlite

-rw-r--r-- 1 tgirke Users 38252544 Oct  9 15:39 /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/GO.db/extdata/GO.sqlite

When I try to open it with the following command then sqlite3 just hangs until I kill it:
sqlite3 /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/GO.db/extdata/GO.sqlite


Thanks,

Thomas
