[R-sig-Geo] raster: crop error ('nrows > 0 is not TRUE')

[Mauricio Zambrano Bigiarini]

Dear list,

I'm applying the 'crop' command of the raster pacakge to subset a
RasterStack ('r') with a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame ('boundary'):

raster.crop <- crop(r, boundary, snap="out")

and what I get is:

Error: nrows > 0 is not TRUE


The summary of the two previous objects are:

> r
class       : RasterStack
dimensions  : 666, 211, 140526, 8  (nrow, ncol, ncell, nlayers)
resolution  : 0.05, 0.05  (x, y)
extent      : -76.3, -65.75, -50, -16.7  (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)
coord. ref. : +proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +no_defs +towgs84=0,0,0
names       : Year.2003, Year.2004, Year.2005, Year.2006, Year.2007,
Year.2008, Year.2009, Year.2010
min values  :         0,         0,         0,         0,         0,
      0,         0,         0
max values  :    844.79,    706.53,    616.73,    888.75,    701.53,
 853.47,    642.07,    986.31


> boundary
class       : SpatialPolygonsDataFrame
features    : 16
extent      : -75.693, -66.419, -55.914, -17.498  (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)
coord. ref. : +proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +no_defs +towgs84=0,0,0
variables   : 1
names       : NOM_REG
min values  :       1
max values  :       9

the previous 'crop' command worked perfectly with a different
RasterStack object, with a similar spatial extent, and I don't now
what is wrong here.
