...this with simpler version of the below model, and keep getting the same error. What does this error mean? Below is the full code, but I've tried this with all sorts of subsets of the model, making sure to keep all of the proper error terms. --- fish.invert.data<-data.frame(Prev.Year.Predatory.Invert.Abundance, Prev.Year.Predatory.Fish.Abundance, Predatory.Invert.Abundance, Predatory.Fish.Abundance, Prev.Year.Herbivorous.Invert.Abundance, Prev.Year.Herbivorous.Fish.Abundance, Herbivorous.Invert.Abundance, Herbivorous.Fish.Abundance, Kelp.Ab...

I am running a binomial glm with response variable the no of mites of two species y->cbind(mitea,miteb) against two continuous variables (temperature and predatory mites) - see below. My model shows overdispersion as the residual deviance is 48.81 on 5 degrees of freedom. If I use quasibinomial to account for overdispersion the dispersion parameter estimate is 2501139, which seems unrealistic. Any ideas as to why I am getting such a huge dispersion paramet...

I am analyzing a dataset on the effects of six pesticides on population growth rate of a predatory mite. The response variable is the population growth rate of the mite (ranges from negative to positive) and the exploratory variable is a categorical variable (treatment). The experiment was blocked in time (3 blocks / replicates per block) and it is unbalanced - at least 1 replicate per block. I...

I am analyzing a dataset on the effects of six pesticides on population growth rate of a predatory mite. The response variable is the population growth rate of the mite expressed as ln(Nfinal/Nstarting) of the mite, where N final the population of the mite at the end of the experiment and N starting the population of the mite at the beginning of the experiment. Each of the six treatments was ran...

...running an lme model with the main effects of four fixed variables (3 continuous and one categorical – see below) and one random variable. The data describe the densities of a mite species – awsm – in relation to four variables: adh31 (temperature related), apsm (another plant feeding mite) awpm (a predatory mite), and orien (sampling location within plant – north or south). I have read in Pinheiro and Bates that anova(model) can be used to asses the significance of fixed factors. In my case, anova(model) gives different results than summary(model) and I am not sure which p values I should use as a...

First of all, in the thread ''Using multiple values for source, for platform/arch/host configs'' Jason said: "I would really appreciate any examples, or further advise anyone has." -> I heartily second that. A good start would be to fill in the cookbook, as Luke has been quietly whispering here and there. ;) Then my other main question at the moment is: what version

Hi all, I''m very happy to see how quickly the Puppet community is growing and how pleasant and helpful everyone is. It seems like people are starting to handle a lot of the questions on the email lists and IRC, which is great because it means I can focus more on development and planning. There are a few areas that don''t seem to be meeting the community needs, though,

After upgrading my puppetmaster server to 0.22.2 using David''s src RPM''s for RHEL4 rebuilt for x86_64 i am getting the following error when puppetd attempts a configuration run. Mon Mar 26 10:05:43 EST 2007 Puppet (err): Could not run Puppet::[1]Network::Client::Master: Invalid value ''nil'' for noop When puppetd is started the initial run is

I''m in a bit of a pickle and I can''t work out a safe way to do something. I currently have a define called ip that I use to define network interfaces. The built in method didn''t seem to work, so I designed this to write out the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg- ethX file. However, I started thinking about what if I decide to define an eth0:0 for some purpose, and

Hi all, I''m in the throes of the REST conversion and I''m wondering: How important is it to retain backward compatibility? The language will clearly be consistent between the two, but it looks like it''s going to be a heckuva lot more complicated to keep compatibility for all network services (as in, for each of them, I''ll have to write a shell that

I have the following set up: schedule {nightly: period => daily, range => "18 - 23", repeat => 1 } define deadlypkg { tag("package") $pkgrepo="/staging/PRODUCTION/deadly" package{"$name": source => "$pkgrepo/$name.pkg", ensure => latest, adminfile

Just thought I''d let you know that your http parser worked great for creating an http protocol handler for Eventmachine. It wouldn''t take that much effort to use Eventmachine for Mongrel, might be worth a shot just to see how it does. A few things would need to be restructered, like HttpRequest where you read the rest of the body, and calling the handler. But it

Hi, in an attempt to simplify my configuration, and from a suggestion on IRC, I was thinking of using multiple values for file { source => [] }. Was just currious if anyone had any comments on this. Basically, I setup my file-server to use: <snip> [private] path /var/lib/puppet/files/private/%H allow * [shared] path /var/lib/puppet/files/shared allow *

I attempted the following: resources { service: purge => true, noop => true } service { sshd: ensure => running; iptables ensure => running; } And got the following message: notice: Starting configuration run err: Found a bug: uninitialized constant Parse notice: Finished configuration run in 0.47 seconds When I remove the ''resources'' line, everything works

Hi, I was talking to Luke today about managing manifests and related files, and he suggested that I post to the list.. What would be nice (and what I''ve use in in-house systems I''ve used previously) is to have a way to dynamically include manifest fragments at runtime. Lets assume that you''re setting up bugzilla using puppet. In the ''main'' manifest
