Hi Michel,
I installed the snapshot version, which was download today. Matlab doesn’t crash when testing the MOD files. I can run dynare with RBC_DataGen, RBC_Monop_Det, RBC_Monop_JFV successfully. But I got errors with RBC_Est and fs2000ns. fs2000ns was working with release v4.03. Here is the errors:
*>> dynare fs2000ns

Anything I need to do to make these two examples run smoothly?
Thanks!

[quote=“MichelJuillard”]The date of the snapshot is meaningless. It is the date at which we have created the file. But we refresh the file every night and this doesn’t update the date.
