Subject   st: Post-estimation predicted probability and predicted probability calculated by hand do not match after running cloglog

Dear Statalisters,
I am estimating a discrete proportional hazard model using clogclog
model. I use a fully non parametric specification for the baseline
hazard. My variables include continuous as well as categorical ones.
Of the categorical variables, three of them (dad_edu, mom_edu and
caste) have three categories each.
I run the following specification(durat1-11 are time dummies):


 cloglog school_left childage i.child_female i.urban i.caste
b3.dad_edu b3.mom_edu wage_less_primary wage_compl~5 wage_compl~8
wage_bey

Since I want the predicted hazards, I type the following
predict h,p
However, when I run the check as calculate the p by hand, using the formula

p=1-exp(-exp(b'x+duration parameters))
I get very different values from h.
But they should be the same. I would appreciate any help in figuring
out what am I missing here.

Thanks in advance for any possible advice.
