Hi Yves,
Thank you for your response.
I am using the RSA function in which the estimator and standard error specifications get passed through to the sem function of the lavaan package. This makes troubleshooting a little harder, but after following your advice of changing the standard error specification the focal issue appears to have been resolved. However, I receive a new error message which indicates an underlying model identification issue. I will investigate this in more detail and try to resolve it by myself before asking further questions.
Best, and thanks again,
/Dennis.
