Problem Note 47913: NORMALMIX Copula on SOLVE statement may generate error if sum of proportions not equal to 1
 |  |  |  |  |
If you specify the COPULA = (NORMALMIX(n,p1...pn,v1...vn)) option on the SOLVE statement, and if the sum of p1...pn is very close to 1 (though not exactly), then the following error message will appear in the log:
ERROR:The sum of the proportions must be equal to 1.
The individual proprotions need to be adjusted so that the sum is exactly equal to 1.
There is no circumvention to this problem.
