[R-sig-ME] error message using glmmadmb

[RH Gibson, School Biological Sciences]

Updated to latest version and now having new problems:

m3<- 
glmmadmb(x~nsn*Insect.type+ara*Insect.type+rap*Insect.type+fsize+offset(logTotal.grains)+(1|Site),data=data1, 
zeroInflation=TRUE, family="binomial")
Error in glmmadmb(x ~ nsn * Insect.type + ara * Insect.type + rap * 
Insect.type +  :
  The function maximizer failed (couldn't find STD file)
In addition: Warning message:
running command 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c "C:/Program 
Files/R/R-2.14.2/library/glmmADMB/bin/windows32/glmmadmb.exe" -maxfn 500 
-maxph 5 -noinit -shess' had status 1


Can you help with this?

Many thanks, Rachel.
