Hello

I am trying to get the vibrational modes for the following system using DFT. I am using NWChem 6.5 and I am not able to get the vibrational modes. I was not sure if the patch which is given in this page or http://nwchemgit.github.io/Special_AWCforum/sp/id5149 would apply for my system too and if that is the only rectification available.

I am always getting the following error:
