NWChem isn't running properly

Hi all,

In the past NWChem worked well on my cluster, but recently it doesn't run as I expect given that I put a very simple input for it to run, and all of the sudden the supposed calculation did not start. I am very puzzled as to what actually happened and why doesn't it work.

Following is my .nw input file (named MP2_run1.nw). The MP2-01.xyz file exists in the same directory as the .nw file and the submission script.

title "HCl+4H2O SIP Form MP2/cc-pVTZ Optimization Run #1"

scratch_dir   ./scratch
permanent_dir ./perm

charge 0

start HCl4H2O_MP2CCPVTZ_R01

geometry units angstrom noautosym noautoz
   load format xyz MP2-01.xyz
end

basis
   *  library  cc-pVTZ
end

driver
   xyz HCl4H2O_SIP_MP2CCPVTZ_run01
   maxiter 20
end

task mp2 optimize


Here is the submission script (the cluster is SGE-based).

#!/bin/bash

### SGE job parameters
#$ -N HCl4Wat_MP2CCPVTZ_MP2_1
#$ -q batch.q
#$ -l h_rt=20:00:00
#$ -pe orte 60
#$ -cwd
#$ -j y
#$ -S /bin/bash
#$ -V
#$ -M myemail@someinstitution.edu

### Program Execution

workDir=/home/my_username/optimization/HCl4Wat/SIP/temp
mpirun -np 60 nwchem-6.5 $workDir/MP2_run1.nw > $workDir/MP2_run1.out

### END timestamp
echo ""
echo -n "END: "
date


NWChem output gave me the following (it didn't even give the database file corresponding to the "start" directive in the permanent directory as stated in the input file)

It did not do anything at all, and immediately after that part of the output was the citation and running time summary. Could you please give me some suggestions as to what might happen or what do I need to do to fix this? Thank you.
