got error "need larger value of 'ncol' as pivoting occurred" when using adonis2

Question

[zhangdengwei]

Hi,

I used adonis2 with the following code

adonis2(df_pathway_f~., bgc_exp_f, permutations = 999, distance = 'bray', by = "margin")

But I got the error

need larger value of 'ncol' as pivoting occurred

I understand this is due to too large size of bgc_exp_f with ~160 columns, anyone has an idea on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
