[Gretl-users] X12-ARMA failing

Sunday, 30 March 2014

Hi,

I'm trying to estimate an ARMA model using X12. I'm linking the gretl 
libraries to my program and these are the errors I'm getting:

    //.spc: Permission denied//
    //Failed to execute x12arima//
    /

So I tried to execute my program as super user, and then the errors 
change as follow:

    /spawn: 'Failed to change to directory '' (No such file or
directory)'//
    //   -r -p -q -n //
    //Failed to execute x12arima//
    /

I seems that x12arma is writing out files (or something similar). Can 
anyone give me some advise on these errors?
