coxph error : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed

Hi, all!

I'was playing with a dummy data like below to study survival analysis.

> test
  age status   E2  E4 rs4266886 rs61822977 rs6733839 rs10202748 rs115124923 rs115675626
1  65      0 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
2  70      1 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
3  75      1 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
4  80      0 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
5  85      1 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
6  90      1 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
7  95      1 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9
8 100      1 0.63 2.8      0.91       0.92      0.86       0.94        1.19         0.9

When I ran using this code

fit <- coxph(Surv(age,status) ~ rs4266886+rs61822977+rs6733839+rs10202748+rs115124923+rs115675626, data=test)

I got a following error

Error in if (any(infs)) warning(paste("Loglik converged before variable ",  : 
  missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed

But when I ran like below

fit <- coxph(Surv(age,status) ~ rs4266886, data=test)

I didn't get any error messages.

Wow. Could you expand on that a wee bit?

Expecting some more information about what the OP has done to resolve the issue, given that a plain google search yields a lot of results.

PS: I don't how that landed into an answer rather than a comment! Corrected.
