My guess is he's absolutely right, and you are copy-and-pasting instead of using source(), but you do not ever say, as far as I can tell in the large number of mostly-repetitive messages. Save your very long command into a text file, preferably with an editor that does syntax highlighting and parenthesis matching, use source(), and let us know if it works.
