The help for -nl- function evaluator programs states that
* For function evaluator program version, you must specify
parameters(namelist) or nparameters(#), or both.
You have not done that. I am surprised that Stata does not generate a
syntax error.
Furthermore the invocation of -nl- should be
nl wqfinalnoseasonfinal2 @ downstreamwaterqualityfoia04 etc.
The at sign (@) is not optional.
If you specify parameters() or nparameters() properly, then -nl- (like
any estimation command) should return e(b) and e(V), which are needed
by -predictnl-.
See what happens when you follow the syntax specified in -help nl-.
