[Gretl-users] Replay of saved session does not work

Hi!

I have a problem, a saved session will not replay what I did manually.

My step-by-step approach:


Open CSV File (Colon, Point)
Yes, use as time series
Time Series

Options: Yeary, Quarterly, Monthly, Weekly, Daily (5, 6, 7), Hourly, Decadic
(translated from german, may not be exact, also on following terms).

I'm missing "daily (1)"?

So I just choose "Other: 24" for my purposes. That interprets as 
"Hourly, 1:01 to 1:24". But it's not the problem I wanted to discuss:


After importing, I do
Model - Time Series - ARIMA
temp as dependent, hour as non-dependend variable

All other settings on standard: AR 1, I 0, MA 1, Seasonals all on 0.
Use constant, do not show iteration details, do Hesse matrix, no 
X-12-Arima, exact maximum likelihood

OK =>
function calculations: 91, gradient: 37, ...

In this window, I use the menu to:
Analysis, Prognosis, add 6
automatic prognosis
plot previous 24
OK

And I get the graph I want to see.

So far, so good.

Now I save this session in gretl with File - Session - Save Session.
I open the resulting file in WinRar and get the .INP file.


# Log started 2009-10-19 08:57
# recording of session commands. please not this must most likely
# be edited before executing
open C:\TempData1.csv
setobs 24 1:01 --special-time-series
# Modell 1
arima 1 0 1 ; 2 1 0
fcasterr 2:01 2:06
gnuplot temp --with-lines --time-series

And I get the error
? fcasterr 2:01 2:06
Observation Number out of boundaries (Beobachtungsnummer außerhalb der 
Grenzen)



What am I missing, I thought the session should at least replay?


Thanks in advance for you help,
marco
