stata - esttab estimations results do not have e(b) and e(V) -
i have been using estout
commands quite time now, working on couple of computers not connected internet. have been getting following error esttab
command:
current estimation results not have e(b) , e(v)
to test simpler example, tried replicate example here: http://repec.org/bocode/e/estout/estpost.html#estpost101
i created sample dataset below:
price mpg rep78 foreign 1 3 1 1 2 3 1 1 3 3 1 2 4 3 2 3 5 3 2 5 6 3 2 8 7 3 3 13 8 3 3 21 9 3 3 34
and ran following commands per example:
estpost summarize price mpg rep78 foreign, listwise esttab, cells("mean sd min max") nomtitle nonumber
i got expected output estpost
command, got aforementioned error when running esttab
. have uninstalled , reinstalled package several times, using both version downloaded onto computer using ssc install
, version downloaded http://repec.org/bocode/e/estout/installation.html. feel must missing obvious...any appreciated.
edit: checked colleague of mine, , seems have been inexplicably getting same error recently.
this works me. suspect faulty installation. despite best efforts, may have installed versions of or of programs in estout
on system.
in stata, need check stata seeing typing commands such
. esttab,
in every directory in work. if necessary, repeat other command files in package named ssc desc estout
. should seeing 1 (and one) version of each command, dates in 2009 (eststo
in 2008).
a wilder hypothesis estout
has been broken recent changes in stata. seems unlikely me, check above first.
(update) op reply reveals nightmare scenario: old versions have been found difficult remove. do?
look @
adopath
command. in first instance, typeadopath
. stata wants installestout
stuff ine
off whatever labelsplus
. (if in us, want "off of".)one possibility use
adopath
resetplus
somewhere have write access, preferably somewhere dedicated programs alone. that's got implications programs inplus
, longer visible, need add whateverplus
place look.adopath
explains how this.another possibility stata looks in current directory or folder user-written program before looks in
plus
(unless mess order, advise against). so, long programs want in current directory, should work. however, considered poor style. worse, change working directory, need copy programs directory.you may need approach administrators delete old stuff. hard work user-written programs stata if don't have right privileges.
