Realcom used -9.999e29 as the preferred missing value when performing multiple imputation. Other values were permitted, but I found this to be more reliable. Is this still the preference in Stat-JR, or are other values permitted? What about a period?

My plan was to follow the suggestion of von Hippel, but understand this is less than optimal. Stef van Buren has worked out an algorithm for squares (http://www.stefvanbuuren.nl/publications/2013%20Squared%20terms%20-SMR.pdf), but conclude the transform and impute procedure is the best available ...

Just want to confirm: When using the 2LevelImpute template in TREE, I see no direct way to enter interaction terms, correct? These terms would need to be added to the data set before reading into TREE for processing, right? Thx.

Ok. I managed to remedy this problem by restarting TREE and inputting the model parameters once again, and that got me down to Step 4. Now I'm getting the same message I got before about files being used by another process:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm running the 2LevelImpute eBook.zip file examples, so I don't see the input string. Is it available? This is the second example, the 2 level model. Seems like I'd have to at least go through all four steps to get the input string. The example is crashing on Step 2.

Apparently that was the case. I tried running this template again later and it worked. I'm not having so much luck with the 2-level template, however. On Step 2. Specifying the variables in the MOI, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ebooktest.py", line 126, in new ...

We found the problem to be an uninstalled compiler. Fixed that and the first example in Chapter 4 works flawlessly. I tried to run the 2-level example and received this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ebooktest.py", line 126, in new_resource
File "ebooktest.py", line 236, in new ...

Ok. I tried to run the first example in Chapter 4. I received the error below. Clearly something amiss. My IT team did this install for me, so if there are instructions I can give to them, please forward. Thx.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "webtest.py", line 416, in go

The path is set correctly. What models should I try to run?

I'm working with the 2LevelImpute ebook, first example in the tutorial in DEEP. When I get down to submitting the job, it throws an error. I can't tell if I made a mistake in the setup, or if there's another problem, e.g., my install. Seems to be saying there's a missing file. I would appreciate ...
