Hello,

 

I'm reanalyzing binomial GLMM's using the same script and data from last
year.  I'm using the lme4 and AICcmodavg packages 

and able to produce an AIC

table but not able to get a summary of the top model - or any model.
Instead, I get the error listed below.  

 

Error in sprintf(gettext(fmt, domain = domain), ...) : 

  invalid type of argument[1]: 'symbol'

(I found this by googling "error in sprintf gettext symbol" -- this
message is hits #2 and #3)

The link suggests you can work around the problem by (1) installing
MuMIn version 1.9.14 from R-forge (2) omitting na.action=na.omit.

Your problem *might* be something different, but this looks like a
good place to start.
