Hello everyone.
I am using Stata 14. I employed 2SLS estimation strategy with IV approach. I am using 3 IVs (distance to flood at village/cluster level, slope of cluster and distance if household to water source) and clustering the clustered standard error at enumeration block/cluster level. Moreover, i am using district fixed effects.
The issue is when i use the district fix effects i get this big warning message. How to resolve this if i have to use the fix effects at district level. Other control variables did not create any issue. I am new to state and don't know much about the models and statistics.

Warning: estimated covariance matrix of moment conditions not of full rank.
overidentification statistic not reported, and standard errors and
model tests should be interpreted with caution.
Possible causes:
number of clusters insufficient to calculate robust covariance matrix
singleton dummy variable (dummy with one 1 and N-1 0s or vice versa)
partial option may address problem.
