Odd Problems

Dynare tests the presence of Matlab Statistical Toolbox on your machine and if it is absent, adds a path to alternative routines. In rare cases, files for a Matlab toolbox may exist on your machine without you having the proper licence for the given toolbox. In such a case, Dynare will fail with a cryptic message about a function missing. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to test for the existence of a proper licence for a toolbox.
