model "does not contain a RAM objective function"

Hi,
I'm having some trouble and have been getting an error message that reads:
"Error: The RAM model 'MZ' does not contain a RAM objective function."
What has me perplexed is that I specify what OpenMx should take into account when evaluating the model (for both groups in a BG study):
mxFIMLObjective(covariance="R", means="M", dimnames=manifests, thresholds="expThresholds")
mxAlgebra(expression=MZ.objective + DZ.objective, name="minus2sumll" ),
mxAlgebraObjective("minus2sumll")
Thank you for any insight.
UPDATE: I figured it out. The error (which should have been obvious) is that I mislabeled the model type.
It looks like the algebra
It looks like the algebra objective function needs to be in the parent model. I don't see a right-parenthesis that closes the child model before the specification of the algebra and the algebra objective function.

Thanks!
Just saw this after I hit submit on the update.
