I suspect you have perfect prediction happening or some other issue, such as a non-concave likelihood. That's a lot of variables for the number of observations for this kind of model and you probably don't have the data to run the model you want. Try deleting each variable in turn to see if you can identify the trouble variable. * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/resources/statalist-faq/ * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
