Hi all, sorry for bothering you again with this issue, but I still think it is extremely unfortunate to base the printout of errors and the display of check on different criteria. This results in user problems like: http://www.dynare.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1 <http://www.dynare.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4049> &t=4049 In this post, there is rank deficiency, which is correctly detected by Dynare, but the output of check does not state this. If I remember correctly, some time ago Michel argued that this behavior is desired, but I cant remember the argument. I personally find this behavior confusing and would suggest to open a ticket making the behavior consistent.
