You may also want to use tools that are more robust. Package nlmrt uses analytic Jacobian where possible and a Marquardt solver.
Package minpack.lm uses a Marquardt solver, but the forward difference derivatives of nls() for its Jacobian. alpha level work in https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=395 package nlsr is aimed at cleaning up some of the work in nlmrt and extending its capabilities.
