Error while using gdcRNADownload()

[VeronicaFung]

I installed R-3.4.1 by Miniconda, and managed to installed the GDCRNATools, but while testing with your instruction to download RNA data (http://bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/vignettes/GDCRNATools/inst/doc/GDCRNATools.html#data-preparation), I got a error when using gdcRNADownload(). The error is like this:

and my sessionInfo() is below:

Do you have any idea why I got this problem and how to solve? Thank you so much!

Hi, could you please try method='gdc-client', the api method sometimes doesn't work well. Thanks

Thank you, now I tried 'gdc-client', it works on my personal computer, but our host got some other problem. Seems the glibc is too old. Anyway, will find a way to solve that. Thank you so much for replying.

The downloaded RNAseq or miRNA data by 'gdc-client' method in gdcRNADownload() were .htseq.counts.gz files in separate file folders. But the api method can directly get those .htseq.counts.gz files in the working path, which is important to run gdcRNAMerge(). Do you have any idea to solve the problem?
