Error when running MLwiN Manual examples (chapter 9)

Hi,

I'm working through the runmlwin version of the examples in Chapter 9 of the MLwiN manual, but I'm getting this error:

runmlwin use cons lc1 lc2 lc3plus, level1(woman) discrete(distribution(binomial) link(logit) denominator(cons)) nopause

var(bcons: operator invalid
r(198);

Does anyone know how t fix it?

thanks,
Flo

Dear Flo,

This example is working at our end

Please make sure that you are using the latest version of MLwiN (version 2.26)

http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cmm/software/mlwin/

and the latest version of runmlwin (type the following command in Stata)

. adoupdate runmlwin

If you still run into the error message, then do get back to us

Best wishes

George

Hi George,

I am up-to-date with both MLwiN and runmlwin, but am still getting the error.

Would it be possible for you to run the command:

Code: Select all

set trace on
before running the model, and then let us know what the lines prior to error message say?
