[R] R2WinBUGS - parameter monitor seting

[Doug Lincoln]

R2WinBUGS users,

I'm getting the error message "monitor could not be set" when I try to
monitor (and output to R) a response variable that includes missing data
(NAs)...ie.e imputing for y. Setting monitors for other parameters works
OK and running the R-generated WinBUGS script file in WinBUGS, also
works OK. Below is my R code and the log.txt file output by R2WinBUGS.
As I want to run this model 100+ times, i'd prefer to write some looping
code rather than cut and paste 100 times..can anyone help?

thanks
doug

R-code:

    n.chains = 1, n.iter = 4000, 
    bugs.directory = "c:/Program Files/WinBUGS14/",
    working.directory = NULL, clearWD = TRUE, debug = TRUE)
