stacey: Fatal exception: Could not find a proper state to initialise. Perhaps try another seed.

Dear Beast users

I try to run analyses on template Stacey with the same priors that worked before (for a matrix of 69 specimens without missing data).

When I putt the new dataset with 187 specimens and only 2 % of missing data appears one error message


java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not find a proper state to initialise. Perhaps try another seed.

Fatal exception: Could not find a proper state to initialise. Perhaps try another seed.

The results attached.
I d' ont believe that this error results from the missing data--.I have no idea where is the error...
Some suggestions?

Thanks a lot
