Dear Niri and NWChem users

Thanks for your attention. I eliminated the extra "end" from the input file but yet the NWChem has not worked well, sometimes it terminated successfully and sometimes I get an error through running a similar input. I am confused now ! "clean"ing the terminal or changing the number of CPUs from 3 to 2 in the command (mpirun -np 3 nwchem h2o_scf.nw >& hh.out &) might solve the problem and sometimes can not. In other words there is not any trend or good order that helps me to find the cause of the error. For example when I run the input file without the extra end I get "3" types of message:

1. the file runs successfully,.
