TDDFT: Too small a subspace error?


Click here for full thread
Clicked A Few Times
I am trying to use the TDDFT module in NWChem 6.8 and after the SCF procedure I am getting an error that I don't quite understand. I looked through the previous posts and I found that someone else had a similar problem using TDDFT in NWChem 6.1. The suggestion was that perhaps the number of roots requested was too high - but from reading the post it was clear if this truly was the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My input file:

memory total 16 Gb

restart tddft_S2exc
dft
xc b3lyp
maxiter 500
direct
end

 tddft
cis
nroots 50
singlet
triplet
civecs
end
task tddft energy


And then the error that I receive at the end of the SCF procedure.
