How to use predict statement with existence of genetic group?

I used the file "ex11g.as" from ASReml package as an example.
Appending a line "predict LINES" did not produce predicted values in
the .pvs file. After removing the genetic groups from the pedigree
file, ASReml gave me valid predicted values for LINES.

Is there any way to do prediction when genetic groups are specified? Thanks!
