Hello all,

I wrote a steady state file for the mod-file like described here [Steady state file](https://forum.dynare.org/t/steady-state-file/782/1)  
But my model needs 2 auxiliary variables. How do I handle this in the steady state m.file?  
I allways get the error that “The steadystate file did not compute the steady state”, however, my steady state values, I give to dynare, produce only zero residuals.

Best regards,  
Daniel

You are using an old wrong version of the steady\_state-file. In the final loop it should be

```auto

```

and not

```auto

```
