Known bugs present in the current stable version

This page documents known bugs in Dynare stable.

  • Passing multiple shock values through a MATLAB/Octave vector in a mshocks block does not work (bug fixed in ffa828a6 and 12ef7531)
  • mode_compute=12 is broken (bug fixed via !1784)
  • The use_mh_covariance was ignored (bug not yet fixed, see cef13ffd)
  • The use_mh_covariance does not work with mh_tune_jscale (bug not yet fixed, see 0090de63)
  • The forecast-option is ignored when using mode_compute=0 without a mode-file to execute the smoother (bug fixed, see !1802)
  • discretionary_policy crashes in the presence of news shocks (bug fixed via !1767)
  • ramsey_constraints crashes if the constraint contains defined parameters (bug fixed in !1788)
  • Identification will display a wrong error message if a unit root is present and diffuse_filter has been set (bug fixed via !1782)
  • particle filter estimation will crash if the initial state covariance becomes singular for a draw (bug fixed via 38e300b9)
  • particle filter estimation will crash if k_order_solver is specified with options_.particle.pruning (bug fixed via 0b87f664)
  • The initial state covariance in particle filter estimation may be NaN when using nonlinear_filter_initialization=2 despite options_.particles.pruning=1 (bug fixed in f19decf2)
  • Output of smoother-results when using particle filters will be based on order=1 (bug fixed, in 417f038c)
  • Output of moments_varendo-results when using particle filters will be based on order=1 (bug fixed in dedfd0c0, 314948ce. and b38d6f81)
  • When decreasing the order in mod-files, oo_.dr may contain stale results from higher orders (bug not yet fixed, see #1767)
  • Estimation results using the particle filter at order=3 will be incorrect if the restricted state space differs from the unrestricted one (bug not yet fixed, see #1768)
  • mode_compute=102 (SOLVEOPT) may return with Inf instead of the last feasible value (bug fixed in a89f21b5)
  • Using analytic_derivation for Bayesian estimation will result in wrong results when the multivariate Kalman filter enters the steady state stage (bug fixed in c6c9b4e3)
  • Using analytic_derivation for ML estimation will result in a crash (bug fixed in 82aa669b)
  • cova_compute=0 did not work with user-defined MCMC_jumping_covariance (bug fixed via 9351fd66)
  • mode_compute=1 does not work with analytic_derivation (bug not yet fixed, see #1770)
  • Not all commands honor saving to the M_.dname-folder (bug fixed, see da3943be)
  • LaTeX output of the simulated variance decomposition for observables with measurement error may have a wrong variable label (bug fixed in f721a14f)
  • Forecasts are only based on the DSGE-model, not the DSGE-VAR (bug not yet fixed; see #819)
  • smoother2histval will crash if variable names are too similar (bug fixed, see !1800)
  • smoother2histval does not keep track of whether previously stored results were generate with loglinear (bug not yet fixed; see #1407)
  • The initval_file option does not yet support Dynare's translation of a model into a one lead/lag-model via auxiliary variables (bug not yet fixed; see #1004)
