Dear All, I am trying to use the glmmBUGS package with OpenBUGS under Linux. Here is a short list of code I modified from the diseasemapping package document: ---------------------------------------- library(diseasemapping) data(popdata) data(casedata) model = getRates(casedata, popdata, ~age*sex, breaks=seq(0, 90, by=10) ) ontario = getSMR(popdata,model, casedata) spplot(ontario, 'SMR') library(spdep) popDataAdjMat = poly2nb(ontario, ontario[["CSDUID"]]) library(glmmBUGS) forBugs = glmmBUGS(formula=observed + logExpected ~ 1, effects="CSDUID", family="poisson", spatial=popDataAdjMat, data=ontario at data, modelFile="model.txt") startingValues = forBugs$startingValues source("getInits.R") library(R2OpenBUGS) ontarioResult = bugs(forBugs$ragged, getInits, parameters.to.save names(getInits()), model.file="model.txt", n.chain=3, n.iter=100, n.burnin=10, n.thin=2) ------------------------------------------- I got error message saying "Error in bugs.run(n.burnin, OpenBUGS.pgm, debug = debug, WINE = WINE, : Look at the log file in /tmp/Rtmp0wN6Jy and try again with 'debug=TRUE' to figure out what went wrong within OpenBUGS." I also tried to use the R2WinBUGS package instead of R2OpenBUGS package with the "program="openbugs"" option, then I got error message saying "Carriage returns added to model file model.bug model is syntactically correct data loaded Error in handleRes(res) : An OpenBUGS module or procedure was called that did not exist. Please report this bug to Chris Jackson <chris.jackson at mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk>" Thanks for your time. Best, Shige
