-svydes- command can give you an easy indication if a singleton PSU
(the only PSU in a stratum) is an issue. It may also be that a wicked
combination of regressors (e.g., one of the levels is only present
once in the data) produces this sort of a problem: for whatever
reason, the variance-covariance matrix of the estimates came out to be
degenerate, and -svy- produced a default diagnostics of the singleton
PSU.

I am a beginner in Stata programming.My final goal is to calculate the Archer  and  Lemeshow  (A-L;  2006) goodness of fit test (with estat gof command) that is not available in SAS. To do that I have to  run correctly the logistic regression model (with only weight and strata without cluster) in Stata. I hope someone can help with the Stata code.
