Hi,

I am trying to use Bayesian estimation to recover parameters in my DSGE model, but I keep running into this message:

"??? Error using ==> mkdir
The file exists.

Error in ==> CheckPath at 41
mkdir(’.’,DirectoryName);"

I am using the 2007b version of Matlab. Is their some sort of conflict going on between dynare 4.0.4 and matlab?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Aqib

Hi,

This probably means that you have in your work directory a file which has the same name than your MOD file, but without extension. Remove that file and it should work.

Best,
