SCF: movecs fragment: closed shell mismatch


Just Got Here
I am trying to get MO vectors for a Cerium complex, however, I keep getting the error above. I have checked my multiplicities and I believe they're right, so I am not sure what's causing the error. Here is my input file

Please delete the following line from your input file

Bq     -0.05100     -0.04600     -0.06200 charge 2 #to simulate cerium

and your input will work
