Algorithm failed to converge after trying different initial values.

Hey,

It seems that this error continuously occurs for most of my analyses:

Function arguments:

gwas2.df=~/trait1.data.wrangling.hdl.rds
LD.path=~/UKBB_HapMap3_LD_reference
output.file=~/trait2_vs_trait1.Rout

The same analysis worked well with LDSC, though.

Can you please help???

This relates to two other tickets: #21 #6

Thanks
