bad gga


Just Got Here
Hello!

I am trying to run the following input file with xc functional PBEsol, but the calculation quits and gives me "bad gga." Similar calculations with elements other than silicon seem to work fine, but I'm having trouble with silicon. Is there something in the input file I've missed?
