You are being over-optimistic with your starting values, and/or with constrains
on the parameter space.
Your fit is diverging in sigma for some reason known only to
nonlinear-optimizer gurus...
For me, it works either to put in an explicit constraint or to reparametrize
with log(sigma).
E.g.

Thanks, that was exactly it -- switching the values did the trick (and
was actually correct in terms of theory.) And of course, you are right
-- i changed the starting values to mean(x) - mean(y) for mu and
sqrt(var(x-y)) for sigma.
I also see your point about the theoretical justification for the

Thank you very much Professor .Peter Dalgaard for your kind explanations..
This made my work easy.. I am struggling with this for more than 2 days and
now I got the correct reply.
Thank again.

Thank you!
Thomas:
that worked out well, thank you again!
I also tried to use lm, and as expected in this case, I almost got the same
estimates of the parameters as in the MLE-case.

A coding solutions may be
... + (1/(2*stdev*stdev))*sum( ( y-(rev/12)- c(0,y[-n]) *exp(-lap/12) )^2
)
where n is the number of observations in y.
Personally, I would use lm. Your model can be written as a linear function.
Let x=c(0,y[-n]). Then run lm(y~x). The parameter estimat
Thank you Thomas.
(a) an embarrassing mistake by me. Of course it should be squared. Thank you
for pointing that out.
(b) Do you possibly have any suggestions on how to solve this issue? I
presume that there is no reason in trying to create a lagged "vector"
manually?

Two possible problems:
(a) If you're working with a normal likelihood---and it seems that you
are---the exponent should be squared. As in:
... + (1/(2*stdev*stdev))*sum( ( y-(rev/12)-lag(y)*exp(-lap/12) )^2 )
(b) lag may not be working like you think it should. Consider this silly

Hi,
Your results are do to using an unstable parameterization
of the Von Bertalanffy growth curve, combined with the unreliable
optimization methods supplied with R. I coded up your model in
AD Model Builder which supplies exact derivatives through
AD.
