Dear Gavin,
My apologies for the delay in responding to your request for further
information I have been travelling for work since you replied and have only
just returned to email contact.
The output from the traceback is as follows
# This is the capscale model that I called
> beetlecap <-capscale(log(beetles+1) ~ size + Clearfell + Absolute.Distance+
> Distance_from_edge+ clearfell.harvest_area + Canopy.Cover + X500mnative +
> Litter3 + X500mexotic + X5000exotic + Condition(AdjLong + AdjLat + AdjLat.2 +
> AdjLat.2.long + AdjLong.3), environ, distance = "bray")
This is the ANOVA by margin option with the error
> anova(beetlecap, by="margin")
Error in dimnames(x) <- dn :
length of 'dimnames' [2] not equal to array extent
Corresponding traceback
> traceback()
9: `colnames<-`(`*tmp*`, value = c("CAP1", "CAP0"))
8: capscale(formula = log(beetles + 1) ~ size + Clearfell + Absolute.Distance +
Distance_from_edge + clearfell.harvest_area + Canopy.Cover +
X500mnative + Litter3 + X500mexotic + X5000exotic + Condition(AdjLong +
AdjLat + AdjLat.2 + AdjLat.2.long + AdjLong.3) + Condition(size +
Clearfell + Absolute.Distance + Distance_from_edge +
clearfell.harvest_area +
Canopy.Cover + Litter3 + X500mexotic + X5000exotic + AdjLong +
AdjLat + AdjLat.2 + AdjLat.2.long + AdjLong.3), data = environ,
distance = "bray")
7: eval(expr, envir, enclos)
6: eval(call, parent.frame())
5: update.default(object, fla)
4: update(object, fla)
3: anova.ccabymargin(object, alpha = alpha, beta = beta, step = step,
perm.max = perm.max, by = NULL, ...)
2: anova.cca(beetlecap, by = "margin")
1: anova(beetlecap, by = "margin")
I note that in the traceback point 8 it appears that my original model
statement has been modified to include all my environmental predictors as
conditions as well as all the original conditional variables that I wished to
partial out.
Any help on finding the cause of this error greatly appreciated, if it helps I
can provide you with data files in a personal email.
Kind regards
Steve Pawson

It is almost impossible to answer that without a lot more information.
For starters, what does traceback() say when run immediately *after* you
get the error?
