Receiving Error in seq.int(0, to0 - from, by) : 'to' must be a finite number

[giacfalk]

When I run the following (found in the Wiki)

`highestAdmLevelStats <- getCtryNlData(ctryCode = ctry, 
                                      admLevel = "highest",
                                      nlType = "VIIRS.M", 
                                      nlPeriods = nlRange("201401", "201412"), 
                                      nlStats = "sum",
                                      ignoreMissing=FALSE)

I get the following error message

Error in seq.int(0, to0 - from, by) : 'to' must be a finite number

Hi @giacfalk,

Please post the output from sessioninfo()

[giacfalk]

I receive a 'Error in sessioninfo() : could not find function "sessioninfo"'. Note that I have installed and loaded the following packages:

install.packages("Rnightlights”)
install.packages("lubridate")
install.packages("reshape2")
install.packages("ggplot2")
install.packages("plotly")

library(Rnightlights)
library(lubridate)
library(reshape2)

[chrisvwn]

Sorry about that. I mistyped. It should be sessionInfo() capital I.

The packages should have installed okay but sometimes an out-of-date package or a partially installed/corrupt package can cause problems.

Also try re-running install.packages("Rnightlights") which should ideally install all the other packages automatically. You shouldn't need to install the other packages separately.

Finally, there is a bug that I have fixed with using the admLevel="highest". You can check out the updated package by installing from github before it appears on CRAN by running:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("chrisvwn/Rnightlights")

Thanks, anyway, I keep getting the same error. Here is my sessionInfo() output:

I have just solved typing Sys.setlocale("LC_TIME", "English"). Apparently, LC_TIME being set to Italian_Italy.1252 was causing the issue!

[chrisvwn]

Great! I am glad you found a solution for this! Will come in handy for anyone else who encounters this issue. Thanks for posting your solution.

Hello everyone, i have zero coding experience. i have tried to break down the following call buti cant seem to pin point the issue causing the error:

epinow_res <- epinow( reported_cases = cases, generation_time = generation_time, delays = delay_opts(incubation_period), return_output = TRUE, verbose = TRUE, horizon = 21, stan = stan_opts(samples = 750, chains = 4) )

The error am getting is:

Logging threshold set at INFO for the EpiNow2 logger Writing EpiNow2 logs to the console and: C:\Users\HPLAPT~1\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpA7ocdD/regional-epinow/2015-04-30.log Logging threshold set at INFO for the EpiNow2.epinow logger Writing EpiNow2.epinow logs to the console and: C:\Users\HPLAPT~1\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpA7ocdD/epinow/2015-04-30.log Error in seq.int(0, to0 - from, by) : 'to' must be a finite number

Kindly assist.

Hi @rhamoonga ,

This seems to be related to the EpiNow2 package. You can try to ask for assistance on their github page: https://github.com/epiforecasts/EpiNow2/issues

[rhamoonga]

Thank you @chrisvwn , i will revert with feedback
