This page documents known bugs in Dynare. A bug is associated with the latest version in which it appears (i.e. it has been or will be fixed in the next version).

Version 4.1.0

  • Root mean squared error is wrong for BVAR forecast
  • Commands prior_analysis and posterior_analysis are broken

Version 4.0.4

  • 2nd order approximation of decision rules for stochastic models with leads greater than 2 are wrong
  • in deterministic models, putting a shocks block before an endval block leads to wrong results; the right order is to put endval before shocks

  • this version doesn't support MATLAB R2009a and R2009b on 64-bit platforms
  • in estimation, option mode_file shouldn't be used if the posterior mode has been computed for a model with a different specification, even if the list of estimated parameters is the same. This can result in wrong results without error message

  • with Octave, in stochastic simulations, Dynare will return wrong eigenvalues if the MEX file "mjdgges" is not present
  • the resid() function messes up things when doing deterministic simulations, and should be avoided in that case

Version 4.0.2

  • Option dr_algo has been suppressed without warning in this version

Version 4.0.1

  • shocks_file option is missing
  • there is a bug in DsgeSmoother.m for models with measurement errors (thanks for hlousek for reporting it)

  • Octave crashes in mode_check.m, MakeAllFigures.m and PosteriorIRF.m, because of missing saveas() function (thanks to Gianni Lombardo for reporting)

  • estimation crashes when mode_file is specified, at least under Octave (thanks to Gianni Lombardo for reporting)

Version 4.0.0

  • typo at the top of DiffuseKalmanSmootherH1.m (thanks to Tsu-ting Tim Lin for reporting)

  • call to cumulative normal distribution is broken (thanks to Karl Walentin for reporting)
  • script for building MEX files under Matlab R2008a is broken (thanks to Slim Bridji for reporting)
  • homotopy mode 3 is broken
  • BVAR à la Sims: Dynare doesn't accept integer values for tau and lambda parameters (thanks to Aqua for reporting)
