Issues with running survival model in Stan

Hi all,
I am trying to run a survival model in Stan. But, I get an error as follows:
Could anyone help to give a hint on what should I do to run my model?

Error:

Hi Isa,

I believe the issue is coming from this section:

for (k in 1:n_grid){
  for (i in 1:N) {
    target += (censor_status [i] * a[k] * lambdaa [i] * exp( -1 * lambdaa [i] * time[i]))
              + ((1 - censor_status [i])*a[k]*exp(-1 * lambdaa [i] * time[i]));
  }
}

Here, you’re using n_grid to iterate over a, except you’ve declared a as being of size province:

vector [province] a;

So, Stan is attempting to access indices greater than the length of the vector. You need to either change the loop to iterate over province, or change the declaration of a, whichever should be the right size

Thank you very much for your help. The previous error was fixed by changing the loop to iterate over the province, but I got the following error again.
Could you help to give a hint on what should I do to run my model?

What’s the motivation for these priors? age is known so beta and beta0 together uniquely determine lambdaa and you can’t really have separate priors for all three at the same time.

I appreciate your detailed explanation. I don’t have any particular insight about priors. I change the codes as follows. but I got the previous error again.
