Hi,
When I try to estimate a Gali Clarida and Gertler model using simulated data from the model I get the following error. Can anyone help me on that? I attached my mod file. Thanks

??? Error using ==> mtimes
Inner matrix dimensions must agree.

Error in ==> DsgeLikelihood at 120
Pstar = lyapunov_symm(T,R*Q*transpose(R));

Error in ==> initial_estimation_checks at 20
[fval,cost_flag,ys,trend_coeff,info] = DsgeLikelihood(xparam1,gend,data);

Error in ==> dynare_estimation at 249
initial_estimation_checks(xparam1,gend,data);

Error in ==> claridaest at 121
dynare_estimation(var_list_);

Error in ==> dynare at 26
evalin('base',fname) ;

m.

Actually when I don't comment the standard errors in the estimated parameters block it works fine. Do we always need to put standard errors in the estimated parameters block?
