I am trying to run a script written by a collaborator and am receiving the below error messages (collaborator does not have any issues with the code, so I believe this is specific to my computer, perhaps something to do with how Python/PyStan were installed). I am having difficulty understanding what the issue is and am wondering if others have any insight.

raise RuntimeError(''' RuntimeError:
An attempt has been made to start a new process before the
current process has finished its bootstrapping phase.
This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
in the main module:
if __name__ == '__main__':
freeze_support()
...
The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
