[ADMB Users] glmmadmb in R

Hello,

I am fairly new to R but am attempting to use GLMMs with neg. bin. 
distribution to analyze count data. (I have successful done this using 
glmer() and glm.nb() ). I am having trouble getting the function 
glmmabmb() to work, even for the example provided at: 
http://admb-project.org/examples/r-stuff/glmmadmb

I am getting the error,

 > fit = 
glmmadmb(y~Base*trt+Age+Visit,random=~Visit,group="subject",data=epil2,family="nbinom")
Error in glmmadmb(y ~ Base * trt + Age + Visit, random = ~Visit, group = 
"subject",  :
   unused argument(s) (group = "subject")


And/or

 > fit = 
glmmadmb(y~Base*trt+Age+Visit,random=~Visit,data=epil2,family="nbinom")
Error in `colnames<-`(`*tmp*`, value = character(0)) :
   attempt to set colnames on object with less than two dimensions

The second error is the same error I get when trying to use the function 
with my data.

E.g.,

 > glmmadmb(ANAM~tmin+CWD,family="nbinom",random=~Day)
Error in `colnames<-`(`*tmp*`, value = character(0)) :
   attempt to set colnames on object with less than two dimensions


I am on a Mac (OS X 10.5.8) running R (2.12- 32bit). Any advice?

Thanks,
Chris
