I am calling auto.arima with a time series that is about 186 observations long with a frequency of 52. With some time series I get:

1:last.nonzero: result would be too long a vector

Is there something that I can do to the data to avoid this error?

Reformulate what you are doing: the error presumably relates to the model fitting, not the data per se.

You have not even told us what package auto.arima() is in, let alone given us a reproducible example and the result of traceback(). But presumably it is from 'forecast' in the 'forecasting' bundle, and this looks like an infelicity in the package, so please send a reproducible example to the maintainer.

(BTW to Rob, max((1:length(testvec))[abs(testvec)>1e-8]) is bad coding practice: max(which(abs(testvec)>1e-8)) is clearer and safer, but even then is not going to cope with an empty set, and I suspect max() returning -Inf is the problem here.)

Thank you.

Kevin
