doubts in input file: error atomscf


Clicked A Few Times
Hi all,

I started using the NWChem last weekend.

I have some doubts about that rode an input for the Au (segui o exemplo de h2o.nw)

start Au01
title "Au01 atom - classical"

geometry units angstroms
symmetry d2h
Au 0.00000000 0.00000000 0.00000000
end

basis spherical
 Au library lanl8dz
end

scf
 NOPEN 1
end

task scf

and error:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
atomscf:atomd: error in atom scf 0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
current input line :
17: task scf
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This error has not yet been assigned to a category
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For more information see the NWChem manual at

But, the input bellow works fine.

start Au01
title "Au01 atom - classical"

geometry units angstroms
symmetry d2h
Au 0.00000000 0.00000000 0.00000000
end

basis spherical
 Au library lanl2dz_ecp
end

ecp
 Au library lanl2dz_ecp
end

scf
 NOPEN 1
end

task scf

No errors

However, I can not use ECP with relativistic "all electron" mode.

Any help is welcome.

thanks

LANL has an ECP
Your error is because the LANL basis sets also have an ECP attached to them.For the lanl8dz basis set you also need to specify

ecp
Au library lanl2dz_ecp
end
