lme() with known level-one variances

nlme gls() error
...varIdent(form=~1|strata) I get the error Error in recalc.corSymm(object[[i]], conLin) : NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) My dependent variable is highly positively skewed and has with many zero value. Any ideas as to the cause of the error? Could I play around with any of the glsControl values to help out?
