Dear all,

I am tryng to solve a nonlinear optimization probel using the solnp function.
I have different datasets. For the smaller I get full solutions, for  
the bigger I got an error message stating:

solnp--> Solution not reliable....Problem Inverting Hessian.
Warning messages:

2: In cbind(temp, funv) :

Anyone knows what may be the reason? Just remembering that the same  
problem runs OK for smaller datasets.

Thanks in advance,
