[Bioc-devel] BioC 3.6: timeouts on veracruz1 (OS X)

3 messages · Martin Morgan, Ramon Diaz-Uriarte

Dear All,

I have noticed that on the latest build report, a package I maintain,
OncoSimulR
(http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/OncoSimulR/veracruz1-buildsrc.html),
has status timeout on veracruz1. Package building stalls during
creation of the vignette (that is not happening in the malbec1 ---linux---
build). I have noticed that this same pattern (timeout with build stopped when
creating the vignette in veracruz1 but not in malbec1) seems to affect
other packages
(http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/index.html#show=timeout).

Is there anything we should do? Just looking at the log I do not know how
to proceed.


Thanks,


R.

I wonder if it is this issue

which would occur if your vignette has parallel code (using 'fork' 
processed via parallel::mclapply or indirectly via 
BiocParallel::MulticoreParam() / doParallel etc.)

If so then the best strategy is to wait for an upstream fix.

Yes! I have both explicit calls to mclapply and implicit ones (functions
that call functions that call mclapply) in the vignette.
OK. Thank you.

Best,
