I guess that -ivreg2- is calling up
an up-to-date Stata official ado file which
in turn is expecting to talk to the
latest executable, but it can't find it,
as it hasn't been updated.
I guess also that fiddling with -ivreg2-
or the way that it's called will do
nothing to solve this systemic problem.
Perhaps you are using a networked version
of Stata and thus not in charge of
your own set-up. Or otherwise
you will have to get someone to
explain what to do. For example,
hereabouts, there are limits on
installing executables which affect
some users.
