You may want to try nwchem myinputfile.nw , or simply running nwchem without an input file to see if it starts properly.

default.nwchemrc should be renamed as .nwchemrc .

I am having trouble getting the binary set up and figuring out how to actually run nwchem on an input deck.
I downloaded/unarchived/uncompressed the binary for mac os 10.5/6. Not finding anything in the etc directory, I made a file per instructions given to another user elsewhere on this forum with the paths set for my system. Then I didn't know what to do with that file, so I just saved it as default.nwchemrc in etc.

Please bear with me as I have little experience on mac and even less with unix.

Thanks
