LU failed in BW-MRCC for 4 roots and 4 references


Forum Vet
For a molecule treated by BW-MRCC using four references, when root =1, the calculation converged at the 15th step; but when root=4, it failed at the 35th step with the following error message
tce_diis: LU decomposition failed

The input is like the following

basis spherical

H library aug-cc-pvdz
C library cc-pvdz
end

From the output

Symmetry of references

Ref. 1 sym:a'
Ref. 2 sym:a'
Ref. 3 sym:a"
Ref. 4 sym:a"


The program persistently requires two orbitals of every atom constituting the molecule plus an additional one to be a reference.

When NWchem6.6 is used, the same error appears at the 45th step; and I also add an a" into the targetsym, whether which I don't know is the cause of the difference from the NWchem6.5 result.
