"Simulating a group with an initial condition failed" Why am I getting this error when Simbiology Data Fitting?

Error: "Simulating a group with an initial condition failed" The model runs well in simulation mode, but I can't get it to fit data due to this error. Please help!

Hi Justin,

I'm one of the SimBiology developers, and I wrote the code that issues this error. This error is reported because simulating the model with the initial parameter values and patient-specific doses fails. You may be able to get some additional information about the error that I should have included in the error message, and I will try to add that info to the message in a future release.

In the meantime, you may be able to determine the cause of the error by running the following command at the command prompt after the fit fails:

w = lastwarn

I would also appreciate it if you can contact me or technical support with more details on the warning. I would like to figure out why the simulations failed and help you (and future users) figure out how to address whatever is causing the problem.
