Dear all,
   Following the help from gam(mgcv) help page, i tried to analyze my
dataset with all the default arguments. Unfortunately, it can't be run
successfully. I list the errors below.

#m.gam<-gam(mark~s(x,y)+s(lstday2004)+s(slope)+s(ndvi2004)+s(elevation)+s(disbinary),family=binomial(logit),data=point)

m.gam<-gam(mark~s(x,y,k=10)+s(lstday2004,k=10)+s(slope,k=10)+s(ndvi2004,k=10)+s(elevation,k=10)+s(disbinary,k=10),family=binomial(logit),data=point)

> m.gam<-gam(mark~s(x.1,y.1,k=10)+s(lstday2004,k=10)+s(slope,k=10)+s(ndvi2004,k=10)+s(elevation,k=10)+s(disbinary,k=10),family=binomial(logit),data=point)
#??????
Errors: smooth.construct.tp.smooth.spec(object, data, knots) :
  A term has fewer unique covariate combinations than specified maximum
degrees of freedom.

#========================#
  Descriptions for my dataset
#========================#
  There are 1 response variable "mark" (1-case,0-control), and 7 explanatory
covariables.
 x/y are spatial coordinates,
lstday2004, slope, ndvi2004, elevation: continuous variables;
disbinary : binary variable.
  Is there any problems with the above codes? How should i solve it?
  Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
