Not enough work space

Post by jmflavel »

Hello
I am quite new to using MLwiN and am trying to run a 2 level multinomial logit using MLwiN with a random intercept. I have quite a lot of explanatory variables. Each time I try to run the model I get the message "not enough work space for operation, 11199396 free spaces needed(calc)"
Can anybody please tell me what i need to do to address this problem? I have tried changing the worksheet size but am not sure what else to do

Increasing the worksheet size would normally be the solution to this message. What size did you increase it to?

Thanks for your reply
I increased the worksheet size to 40000 cells. Does it need to be larger or do I need to change some other settings too?

The message that you're getting indicates that you're still about 12,000 kcells short. I would suggest increasing the worksheet size to 100,000 and seeing whether you still get the same problem.
