[ADMB Users] New error messages over night

[Semenchuk Philipp]

Hi everybody,

As some have posted earlier, I experience error messages on a model which worked yesterday (couldn't find STD file). Downgrading to v 0.7 didn't help, and including the admbControl modification suggested by Ben Bolker in earlier posts didn't work, either. Changing the model structure, I get another error message which I didn't get before, either:

Error in II[, ii] = II[, ii] + REmat$codes[[i]] :
  number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length

I wonder why I get these errors now and not yesterday?

I installed the glmmADMB package from CRAN, and downgraded later with the file from Ben's webpage. When I tried to upgrade again, I saw that the build on CRAN disappeared. Does this mean somebody is working on it at the moment?

I'm really thankful that you guys are working on this, since in my very limited understanding of stats (plus lack of time) this is the only useful method I found so far to somehow get results for my PhD thesis (ecology, blocked experiment, counts and proportions, comparison of predictors). However, with some things not functioning, I don't dare relying on this package too much, which leaves me without a tool to analyze my data. I'm a bit desperate now and wondering if you think if you will get a well functioning version out soon, i.e. if it's worth waiting a while, or if I should try to find other solutions (which I have no clue what else to try)?

Cheers,
Phil
