[R] help on nlm (gradient)

[Luz Maria Palacios Derflingher]

Hello.

I am having some trouble using nlm in R for windows version 2.2.1. I have 
to minimise a function which includes in its insides the evaluation of 
integrals through the "adapt" function.
In order to make R work less, I calculated the gradient and coded it. I 
made sure that the code and function for the gradient worked.
So I know that the main function (the one to minimise,let's call it 
"func1") yields values when evaluated.
I know that the gradient I coded also works and yields values when 
evaluated (on its own); when I put it all together and use nlm I get the 
following message:

Error in nlm(func1, starting values,  :
         probable coding error in analytic gradient

Any light that can be shed on this would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks
