Hi-
Running PROC MIANALYZE and I get a floating point exception error:
ERROR: Invalid Operation.
ERROR: Termination due to Floating Point Exception
NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.
This issue was raised here with no responses:
I can't find any other comments on this issue. Does anyone have ideas about what might cause this?
Thanks!
Eric
After examining my data to verify I don't have any cases where I should be dividing large numbers by very small or 0 values I would check my syntax very carefully. I have in the past received similar error messages when misunderstanding options or operations syntax and wrote code that turned to be inapplicable to a procedure. Some times the syntax checkers don't catch this type of error as I made something so egregious the programmers didn't think to look for it.

Got it! Thanks. After posting (of course) I noticed that I had some parameter estimates that were zero. Removing those variables seems to have made it work!
