You have two errors. You need to specify "* library 6-31G*" instead of "library 6-31G*" and you need to choose a single spin state in the tddft block. Put in "notriplet" if you want the singlet and "nosinglet" if you want the triplet.


I modified the code as per your suggestions but its still displaying the same error.
