Installed Octave 3.2.2. Now the problem seems to be at line 84 in dynare.m in command dir(fname) -> returns 0 and throws the error. Tried different dynare calls with and without the extension .mod. and calling dir from the DOS ...

Hi,

Please try the new Octave 3.2.2 which has been recently released.
The Wiki page on Dynare for Octave has been updated accordingly:
http://www.dynare.org/DynareWiki/DynareOctave

I know that older versions of Octave had problems with Windows Vista. Maybe this new release will help.

Best,

Just installed Octave 3.0.5 and Dynare 4.0.4. Octave works OK on simple scripts. When I try to run any .mod (example1.mod ramst.mod) file I get the error message "error: memory exhausted or requested size too large for range ...

Ok, great just a typo! I am sorry for that...

Now there are no more errors concerning the .mod file, but I still have this problem with dmperm in octave. Do you maybe have a guess how I can find a solution for this??
If not, THANK YOU so far for your help!!!

... problem is, that when I try to compile the example1.mod file, there is an error which tells me, that dmperm is not available in this version of octave. Does anyone know what I can do??? Can you help me?? basher

... without the DLLs. It will only be slower. The errors that you encounter while compiling the DLLs come from the fact that you are missing the Octave files necessary to compile MEX functions. On Debian, I need to get package octave3.2-headers in order to get these files. Hope it helps Michel

... DynareMain2.o -Lmacro -lmacro cp dynare_m ../matlab/ I do not really know, if there is something going wrong, but it has to, because when I start Octave (v 3.0.2) and want to build the Dlls, the following happens: octave:4> cd /home/bjoern/Desktop/dynare_v4/mex/sources octave:5> build_octave gcc ...

... * Fixed USE_DLL option at order 2 * Updates to the reference manual in sections on model resolution and estimation Release notes: * for users of Octave under Windows, you must upgrade your Octave installation to 3.0.5 release, for compatibility with the new packages (see http://www.dynare.org/DynareWiki/DynareOctave ...

FYI: I met similar problem with the example naming it 'ramsey_policy.dyn' (on Dynare 4.0.3 / Matlab) After renaming the file to 'rpol.dyn' the error was the same. But I noticed that dynare still reports error in old file (ramsey_policy.m). I deleted all the related files and cleared memory, it solve...

The problem was coming from an unfortunate name collision between the Dynare function ramsey_static in the toolbox and the name of the static model for your *.mod file (ramsey.mod) and would have the same effect in Dynare Matlab (with a different error message) I have renamed the Dynare functions ra...

Dear Michael,
Thanks for the reply. I am posting the mod file that I still cannot fix. Please, write me whether it is working at your environment.
Best,
Ivan

Did you use the same *.mod file as when you were trying it with Octave.
If not, please upload the *.mod file

Thanks

Michel

I can't reproduce the problem. Maybe you have made a typo while creating the *.mod file near line 15.
If not, please upload your *.mod file.

Best

Michel

Hi, I tried the wiki example for dynare 4.0.3 in Matlab and, amazingly, I again received an error message, HOWEVER different from the one in Octave. The output I received is as follows: >> dynare ramsey Configuring Dynare ... [mex] Generalized QZ. [m] Sylvester equation solution. [mex] Kronecker ...

Hi, I am trying to run the wiki example (http://www.dynare.org/DynareWiki/OptimalPolicy?action=recall&rev=7) in dynare 4.0.3 with GNU Octave, version 3.0.3. However I get the following output Configuring Dynare ... [mex] Generalized QZ. [mex] Sylvester equation solution. [mex] Kronecker ...
