Dear all,

I am estimating a economic DSGE model with DYNARE, and I meet problems as follow:

??? Error using ==> chol
Matrix must be positive definite.

Error in ==> gmhmaxlik at 232
dd = transpose(chol(CovJump));

Error in ==> dynare_estimation_1 at 307
[xparam1,PostVar,Scale,PostMean] = ...

Error in ==> dynare_estimation at 62
dynare_estimation_1(var_list,varargin{:});

Error in ==> mp at 262
dynare_estimation(var_list_);

Error in ==> dynare at 132
evalin('base',fname) ;

Since I am a begginner of DYNARE, I don't know how to solve the problem. I need your help, thank you very much.
