Hello Jeff:

Thanks for replying.
I made a mistake in my original post.
The same error is generated with %do% as well, so it seems to be gamlss-related.

Subject: Re: [R] Package gamlss used inside foreach() and %dopar% fails to find 
an object

If the code you are running in parallel is complicated, maybe foreach is not 
sophisticated enough to find all the variables you refer to. Maybe use 
parallel::clusterExport yourself? But be a aware that passing parameters is 
much safer than directly accessing globals in parallel processing, so this 
might just be your warning to not do that anyway.
