Hi, I'm working on Windows with 2GB RAM and am trying to run the errorsarlm with 32 predictor variables and 10,071 records. I created my listw object using the dnearneigh function with an upper distance limit of 3000m. I used the following code with method=Matrix to deal with memory limitations:

rams_dak3k.err <- errorsarlm(LN_PRICE~., data=reg_vars, rams_dak.dnear3k.listw, zero.policy=TRUE, method="Matrix")

When I run this, I get the following error message repeated many times:

Error in stop(gettextf("no method or default for coercing \"%s\" to \"%s\"", :
no function to return from, jumping to top level
In addition: Warning message:
In optimize(sar.error.f.M, interval = interval, maximum = TRUE,  :
 NA/Inf replaced by maximum positive value

A bit more context would help. The output of sessionInfo() at least (R and package versions may matter), plus the preceding code, including the definition of rams_dak.dnear3k.listw - is it row-standardised? Running traceback() immediately after the error would also be helpful to see where in functions called by sar.error.f.M() the problem is occurring. If I understand correctly, the error messages cycle, but the rams_dak3k.err object is created? Could you run it with quiet=FALSE, so see the function values as they are generated in optimize()? The NAs usually come from the interval= being too broad wrt. your weights style.

I am not sure what this message means. Should I trust the results? Should I run the function differently. I appreciate any advice anyone can offer me.

Thanks,
Heather Sander
