Model solve with stochastic simulations crashes if bootstrap sample discontinuous

As the title says, I'm encountering an apparent bug when trying to solve the model with stochastic simulations, if I select a bootstrap sample that is not continuous.

For example, this leads to a crash where EViews closes:

Code: Select all

sample s1 2000q1 2025q4 if @year<>2020 m.stochastic(s=s1) m.solve
Any help/fix is appreciated. thanks!

Could you update to the latest version to see if that fixes it?

My organization is currently blocking updates. But I'll complain and get on their case and update you. Thanks

I updated to the latest version (March 4 2026 build), but unfortunately I still have the same problem

Hello,

A fix will be included in the new EViews patch.
