NWchem running but writing output file
Dear NWchem Users,
I am struggling with NWchem from quite some time. I am running geometry optimization. Optimization starts but later on it does not write anything. Request your kind suggestions in this regard.

Input file:
memory total 30000 mb
title "3AT_optimization"

         Convergence Information
-----------------------
Convergence aids based upon iterative change in
total energy or number of iterations.
Levelshifting, if invoked, occurs when the
HOMO/LUMO gap drops below (HL_TOL): 1.00D-02
DIIS, if invoked, will attempt to extrapolate
using up to (NFOCK): 10 stored Fock matrices.
