This input causes the delta E to oscillate between D-9 and D-10, and the calculation not to converge, where your mistake does not appear, yet.

By the way, I am not very clear about the usage of Hessian in a solvent, because the vibrational analysis may be invalid for an nonstationary point on a PES, which may be automatically printed in GAMESS.

Thanks.
