I have a small problem with running the hausman test. I get the
following error message shown below

   Test:  Ho:  difference in coefficients not systematic

                chi2(10) = (b-B)'[(V_b-V_B)^(-1)](b-B)
                         =       11.51
               Prob>chi2 =      0.3190
               (V_b-V_B is not positive definite)

I checked the statalist for some explanation on this one and found
this very nice descreption by Vince wiggins.

There is a code that is provided for doing the wald test in this
message that I am trying to use. for my regression.

I replaced myid in the code with the identifier for my data and the
depvar and the independent variables were changed accordingly. However
when I try to run this code I find that I am not getting any output
but the code is shown on my display.

Could anyone tell me what is wrong ? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks
