Error Meesage from mxGenerateData from Documentation Example Code

I included "facLoads" in the mxModel arguments so I could get estimates of the factor loadings. (It was missing from code in the on-line documentation.)
When I try to use mxGenerateData, it gives an error.

How can I fix this?
mxVersion?
Strange. It works fine on my Windows machine. What's your mxVersion? Mine is

Inspecting the change log
Inspecting the change log, it looks like a few changes have occurred since 2.6.9 that alter the data generation ... apparently for the better. The latest version on GitHub (v2.6.8-255-g096de3b), works fine for this case, but the the older version on CRAN that you have failed. I replicated the failure you found on the CRAN version. The older version couldn't handle joint ordinal and continuous data generation. This works in the next release!
