NWChem 6.6-27746 error with aug-cc-pvdz but not with 6-31g

Dear all,

I am using the Ubuntu package of NWChem 6.6-27746 on a workstation (hostname "attractor") with a Xeon E5-2620v4, 64 GB RAM and an EVGA GTX1080. I can also successfully compile the same version, and I receive errors very similar to the ones below which are produced with the apt-derived package.

uname -a
Linux attractor 4.13.0-19-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 4 11:58:07 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



So what works? When I run the H2O-example file (basis set is 6-31g), it produces the correct energy without hickups. For the Neon file it runs without errors with 6-31g, but if this is changed to aug-cc-pvdz, as in the original exampe file, the run fails with these lines:

with errorcode -1.


What are these errors related to? I have read that the ARMCI DASSERT errors can be linked to memory issues, so here are my kernel.shmall and .shmmax settings:

cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
68719476736

cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmall
18446744073692774399


But this "texas"-error I cannot find much about... There is a Texas integrals patch, but shouldn't the patches have been applied to the Ubuntu package already? (Last modification to package was Fri, 04 Aug 2017). See: [1]

Let me know if you want me to run any diagnostic commands!

Any help is appreciated - thanks in advance!
best regards
