Occasionally, glm.fit fails to converge and then the function throws an error. Just yesterday, I've updated DESeq and wrapped the call to glm.fit in a 'try' statement, so that the function finishes and you just get a few NAs as p values from these cases. Let me know if the problem persists in DESeq version 1.5.24. Simon
