error message in bayesian estimation with correlated shocks

[iacoviel]

Hello,

I am estimating a model with six observable variables and six shocks (called eps_a eps_b eps_f eps_g eps_m eps_s).

If I do not have correlated shocks, everything works fine.

If I try and estimate the correlation between eps_a and eps_s (assuming these the only correlated shocks), the estimation proceeds well until the very end (that is, all the results are displayed on the screen and the figures are printed), until I get the error message that is reported below. I would be grateful if you could tell me which obvious mistake I am making....

Thanks

This is obviously a bug in Dynare.

Thank you for reporting it

The bug is now corrected on the SVN server for dynare_v3.
Follow the instructions for Version 4, replacing dynare_v4 by dynare_v3
