My crystal ball is malfunctioning, so from way over here it is hard to see your code. Without seeing the script it is speculation, but the script likely has a reference to the package nls in a library statement.  Something like

   library(nls)

You can change that to 

   library(stats)

and the script will likely run.  But again, this is pure speculation.
