Thanks @cbccbcc. It may be data-related. Have you checked (joint) distribution of edu
and income
? We can have a look, but you'd need to share the supnet
data so that we can run the code ourselves.

Thanks! I'm not quite clear on what you mean by (joint distribution). Does it mean that I need to add the interact variables?
No, I meant checking if they are perhaps strongly correlated.
It does look like it might be a bug, since even if it errs, it should produce a more informative error message than that. Can you please provide a reproducible example?

I screenshot my console of the error iteration here, and I can confirm that everytime it went wrong at the ninth iteration

I have run Pearson's Correlation test and the outcome seemed to be not strongly correlated.

Thanks @cbccbcc . Indeed. I guess the problem lies elsewhere. As @krivit wrote, we'd need a reprex to debug this efficiently further.

Thanks! I have already sent my data to Professor Krivitsky by email since the data is under protection, I don't know if it's necessary to send you my data too. If so, could you please give me our email? Thanks a lot:)
I was using statnet in R to fit ergm model, specifically the dependent model and when I coded like:
gw1_sup <- ergm(supnet ~ edges + nodefactor("edu") + nodefactor("income") + nodefactor("work") + nodefactor("religious") + nodefactor("gender") + nodecov("age") + edgecov(kin_sup,"kinweight") + gwidegree(.1, T) + gwesp(.1, T) + gwdsp(.1, T), control = control.ergm(MCMC.samplesize = 1e+5, MCMC.burnin = 1e+6, MCMC.interval = 1000, seed = 567), eval.loglik = T, verbose = T)
everything is okay.But when I turned the "edu" and "income" to continuous variables and code like:
gw1_sup <- ergm(supnet ~ edges + nodefactor("work") + nodefactor("religious") + nodefactor("gender") + +nodecov("edu") + nodecov("income") + nodecov("age") + edgecov(kin_sup,"kinweight") + gwidegree(.1, T) + gwesp(.1, T) + gwdsp(.1, T), control = control.ergm(MCMC.samplesize = 1e+5, MCMC.burnin = 1e+6, MCMC.interval = 1000, seed = 567), eval.loglik = T, verbose = T) )
At first, it went okay but at around 8/9 iteration the ergm collapsed and report the error: "Error in T2nullity && verbose : invalid 'x' type in 'x && y'", I don't know why but I cannot delete the variables since they are important, right now my only solution is to go back to the old way of treating them as categorical variables.
