LOAD directive to external xyz file

Dear NWChem users,

I am trying to do something apparently quite simple: use the LOAD directive to load cartesian coordinates from an external .xyz file (methane.xyz). This is the input file:

START input_nwchem
GEOMETRY units angstrom
  load methane.xyz
END
BASIS
 * library 3-21g file /usr/local/nwchem/data/libraries/
END
DFT
 xc xpbe96 1.0 \
pw91lda local 1.0 \
cpbe96 nonlocal 1.0
direct
iterations 150
grid fine
disp vdw 2
END
DRIVER
 loose
maxiter 150
END
TASK dft optimize

NWChem reads the external file but it then stops, with no error message:

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
