st: Using command svy glm to obtain risk ratios

Hello Stata Experts,
I'm attempting to obtain risk ratios using weighted survey data. I'm using a binary outcome. For a simple model, I use the following code:
Svy: glm outcome predictor, fam(binomial) link(log) eform
Stata then does some "thinking.....", and takes forever to finally produce a table that has only coefficients and standard errors, but not the risk ratios that I am looking for. Is there something wrong with my data or my code? How would I assess if there' something wrong with the data (eg: convergence, etc?)
I believe I need to use the svy command to incorporate weighting. I was able to obtain risk ratios without the svy command, but I need to use weights. Any suggestions on different commands I could use to get the results I'm looking for?
Thanks in advance,
