  I'm pretty sure that this is an issue with a file path with spaces in
it.  I thought that I had fixed a problem like this previously.

   It's not clear from your e-mail below: did you download the zip file
from the Otter Research web page, or from r-forge?  If the latter, then
I still have some bug chasing to do.

  Can you please start R, load the package (library("glmmADMB")), run
sessionInfo(), and post the results?  Also, please post the full

  It is possible to use MCMCglmm for this model (or rather a closely
related one that uses the lognormal-Poisson rather than the negative
binomial to model overdispersion), but the syntax turns out to be a bit
trickier than glmmADMB in this case.  Let me know if you end up pursuing
that direction, although I'd like to get the glmmADMB problems sorted
out in any case.

  cheers
   Ben Bolker
