Hi,

The problem with survReg comes from the distribution. In this case, the survReg
procedure accepts only gaussian and logistic distributions ; the
others (particularly the weibull distribution) leads to an "Invalid
survival times for this distribution"...
In which case does this problem occur? I don't understand why the same
data (type="interval2") can be fitted by one distribution and not the
other...

Thank you for your help,
Tristan Lorino
