How to do Mulliken Population Analysis with MP2?


Just Got Here
Hello,

I am trying to calculate the Mulliken population with MP2 theory. I guess using "property; mulliken; end" should work it out, but after I did "task mp2 property", the error " movecs_read_header: faild to open ./ IERR = 30" shows up.

My input file is:

echo

start h2o

title "h2o"
charge 0

geometry units angstroms print xyz autosym
   O        2.15950        0.88132        0.00000
   H        3.12950        0.88132        0.00000
   H        1.83617        0.89369       -0.91444
end

basis spherical
  * library aug-cc-pVDZ
end

mp2
  freeze atomic
end

property
  mulliken
end

task mp2 energy
task mp2 property


and the error I got is:


          ----------------------------
          Mulliken population analysis
          ----------------------------
  movecs_read_header: failed to open ./ IERR =                     30
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 hnd_vec_read: failed to read header                 911
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  current input line :
    27: task mp2 property
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------


Does anyone know how to work around this?
Thanks very much in advance!

mp2
  freeze atomic
end

task mp2 gradient

property
  vectors  h2o.mp2nos
  mulliken
end

task mp2 property

Thanks very much!
This is very useful and it works fine.
