Hi Johannes,

thanks for pointing the problem to me. I just corrected/clarified the error messages.

Best

Hi Michel,

 

thanks for helping the original poster. But my issue was rather that it is strange to complain about initial values in later runs of steady. I was wondering why the misleading error message is triggered by something else and still consider this a bug. At least in the long term we should not use an error triggered by invalid starting values to crash the steady state computation, if steady simply is not able to find a steady state (even if the reason is that the model is wrong).

 

Best,

 

Johannes

Hi Johannes,

I responded directly on the forum. He defines mua and mux as zero mean processes and then use them as arguments in non-linear equations without taking the exponential. This is stupid but very hard to spot or to come-up with a more meaningful error message.

Dear Michel,

 

could you have a look at http://www.dynare.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4151&sid=98769af7c5cb0e2f9e46ccb899e0210f

The original values for steady state computation are valid. However, later on during steady state computation in solve1 the error message

 

STEADY: numerical initial values incompatible with the following equations
10

 

is triggered. I think this is a bug.

 

Best,

 

Johannes
