Error when running generate_beta_trend_test_long() function

[QGaelle]

Dear Chen Yang,

Thank you for your work and your time in trying to answer all the questions users are aiming at you. I know you are very busy and I know I have already one question pending (issue #35) but I keep moving forward with my microbial analyses and new questions arise.

I am now trying to quantify temporal changes in microbial community composition using the generate_beta_trend_test_long() function but when running, I get the following error message:

I have tried running the function using a dist.obj with my own distance matrices (as above) and also not using my own - dist.obj=NULL and dist.name= c("BC") - I get the same error in both cases.

I have also tried using a subset of my data with less samples and clean data (no missing values) to see if that would help but I still got the same error.

I usually try my best to solve most of my issues myself looking at forums on line but since your package is so new, there isn’t much available, that is why I am contacting you.

Hope you can help, Best, Gaëlle
