[R] Optim() Help, Unusual Error

[ApproxGaussian]

Hello all, any help with the following would be appreciated.

I am attempting to maximize 28 parameters similtaneously in Optim().  The
follwoing is my code:

Y<-comp[,9]
n<-length(Y)


e.1<-.5
e.2<-.5
e.3<-.5
e.4<-.5
e.5<-.5
e.6<-.5
e.7<-.5

e.9<-.5
e.10<-.5
e.11<-.5
e.12<-.5
e.13<-.5
e.14<-.5
e.15<-.5
e.16<-.5
e.17<-.5

optim.results <- optim(par, fn=objective.function, method = "Nelder-Mead",
comp[,c(3,5,6,7,10:39,41:42,65)], Y=Y, n=n)


The error I am recieving however states: 
Error in fn(par, ...) : 
  unused argument(s) (X = list(Air.Platform. = c(1, 1...

Where "Air.Platform." is the column name for comp[i,3] used in the first
lines of my objective function.

I'm not sure how it is reminaing "unused".  Thanks for any help.
